Do you know how to talk about your feelings First of all, you may have to choose a person that you like to talk with. Once you know who you can talk with, you may want to choose a time and place to talk. Does it need to be private(私人的), or can you talk with your brother and sister in the room If you think you’ll have trouble saying what’s on your mind, write it down on a piece of paper. If the person doesn’t understand what you mean right away, try to explain it in a different way or give an example of what you are concerned. Is there anything you think could be done to make things better If so, say it.

If you do, talking about your feelings can be the first step to feel better.
