Ever have someone tell you to get in touch with your
feelings? Well sometimes it can be hard to identify
what's going on inside of you. So, we found this cool list of
feelings to help us all get to the bottom of what's
going inside of us.
Once a day print out the list of feelings and hi-lite
all the feelings you felt that day. Do this each day
for one week. Make sure you go to our
Self-Esteem Tips pages
too. They will help you get in touch with your inner
voice. Some of the tips deal with how to believe in
yourself. Other tips explore things like: why anger is
necessary; how to avoid complainers; and, how to stop
all the competition.
After one week if you see your feelings getting
happier stay on that path. If you notice that your
feelings are staying stuck or are sad and depressed,
tell a friend, a parent, a counselor ... someone you
can trust. Most of our friends and the trusted adults
we know have been through times of sadness or despair.
Hearing their advice on how they overcame what we're
going through can help a lot. If you are like a lot of
us, you may even feel like you are totally alone
in your pain and confusion. But, in fact,
millions of people go through dark times. Getting
through tough times really do make us stronger. Getting
through the tough times also enable us to be able to
help others who are going through it. We can actually
help our friends because we know what it feels like to
be in the sh*! and how great it feels to have made it
through.
It helps so much to reach out.
ADVICE: Don't let other
people control how you feel. You have the power within
you to find joy and happiness. It helps if you hang
with friends who are happy. Stay away from those that
thrive on drama, anger and acting out.
Ask yourself this question:
Do
you want to be happy or is there something inside of
you that likes being sad?
If you want to be happy do things that
bring you joy. What brings you
joy? Email your advice for finding joy to:
PreventBullyingNow@heyugly.org.
We'll share your wisdom on with youth
all over the world.
