Bottled.

Hey sythe, seeing as how this section of the forum is very active i will be counting on you for help.

Im the type of person who bottles up all his feelings, for the sake of his friends, and others. Because i dont want to bother people. Theres not alot of people im comfortable talking about this kind of stuff with, and the people i am are people i dont want to bother. Im not really active in my family, as my parents are divorced and i change houses everyday. Cant stand my step-brother, love my sister to death, and both my parents are pretty un-likable to me. My moms an alcoholic that comes home drunk at about 10:30 every night, and my dad on the other hand works 12 hours a day, has an extremely nice house, and is a hard ass.

Im not a very.. motivated? person. I myself would say i have potential if i really wanted to do something. So im not extremely social.

My mom is moving for sure, to apartments from our house, which makes me feel about a less worthy person, one of my best friends could be moving, and at my dads house i know nobody. All my friends are at my moms, so im feeling pretty alone at the moment. Feelings all bottled up, and i need a way to release it, preferably without telling anyone. Ideas ?

No trolls please, if TL;DR fuck off.

 

Go somewhere quiet, somewhere secluded. Grab some wicked speakers, and belt out some of you favorite tunes to scream and cry to. That's a great way to do it, i know it works for me.

 

There's lots of philosophies you could turn to. Everyone bottles something up, but how you deal with what is inside will determine how you deal with things for the rest of your life.

Many people think once you push your problems down, they won't resurface if you don't let them, but believe you me... they will. I am speaking from personal experience. Fortunately, when mine resurfaced, I had been nihilistic and dead inside for so long that I just didn't care what happened.

Eventually, your emotions will get the best of you, no matter how logical you are. It's ok to just let go once in a while, in fact, it's recommended. Don't get to a breaking point, because if you do you will lose your self control.

As for advice in your situation, I'd say just go with the flow and don't let things get to you too much. Everyone has tough situations, the best thing you can do is let them play out, and try and do damage control. It's best if you realize that many things are out of your control, and all you can do is attempt to lessen the amount of pain caused from whatever happens.

 

You could try anonymous ways. There are anonymous phone services (toll free) where you can vent/talk to someone. If you're not much of a talker, find another way to take it out.

Perhaps get into Spot Shooting, or something more calm such as Sailing.

It all depends on personal preferences. Somethings you can do are free while others can end up costing quite a bit on your wallet.
