Holding your feelings inside might end you

This is right. We really do need to express our heartaches, joy and sorrow to somebody else because it is healthy. When expressing your feelings to others, you are able to gain inputs from them on how to solve your problem. If not, you might think to harm yourself because you will think that you are useless.

I agree with what you had said. Holding on our emotions by keeping it inside may cause heart attract. Simply because when we are stressed, our system cannot work properly and this may cause some of our internal organs cannot function well unlike when we are not stress. There is nothing wrong of crying when we don't feel good especially when we are in great pain. In my experience, If I can't cry in front of my mom when I have a problem, I asked my friend to be at my side that moment so that I can tell her what I feel and then I cry on her shoulder. This can lessen the burden that I have. and you know what, after that, I can feel better. The best thing to do is not to hold onto our emotions.

It is interesting what this article has to say, and it does make some sense that talking about our feelings would certainly help, and that we could benefit from it. However, art can certainly be a good way to heal. I'm not trying to say that, even with the help of art, there shouldn't be any kind of verbal communication. All I'm really saying is that art can be just as good of a way of expression.

HI katie: I agree with this article but I also need to add that there are so many different ways to express your feelings. One is art. I actually love to take it away all that I am feeling writing but there are also other ways to express when you don't find someone you can trust offline. Mylot for example, here we talk with real people and express our worries and also hear the advices and thoughts of other persons with similar concerns and different experiences and we can feel safe and say exactly what we want. ALVARO

Yes, it's true that keeping one's feelings inside is not good for oneself. In the long-term, it can lead to what you have mentioned (ie. depression, etc). Like what you have said, we must follow our hearts. I agree on that point. On the other hand, there are times when it's just not possible to do what we want, because of practical reasons and so forth.

yeah agree on this. The more feelings you keep inside the more you die. it like slow poison. it will effect your mental strength making you mentally ill. have gone through many such cases. eg love failure.:D

I agree, people should show signs of emotion, rather than repressing it, but they feel like they are showing their weakness to people outside also pride is other thing that refrain people from giving themselves to a breaking point of emotion, even myself feel kind of not showing my weak side to people, it feels like being childish, and this immaturity is not so good when in adult hood.

I am no sure about it... yes, holding our feelings and does not express it in either would depress us. But even if you can only express it through paintings and poems or songs (in my case) it helps us heal.

Yes katie0 holding your feelings inside you will probably end yourself. What happens is we start thinking a lot when we hide something like our pain inside us. Once we share our problems a big burden will be away from us. But the main thing which is required is someone-may be your best friend to share your feelings.And Always be careful that you share your personal problems with someone whom you can rely on. Once we open up our matters with others they come up with solutions which we might not have thought or known of before.
