Emotions

Despite a physically challenging month, I am still sitting at my desk in the evenings and learning positive psychology. Learning about happiness and lack of emotional well-being made me realise that my anxiety levels are much higher now, after few years of living in a small town, in a strange type of social isolation. I looked up the definition of anxiety and actually discovered that my reactions are not that, but rather small instances of fear. It was quite a realisation to me to discover that I have misinterpreted my own feelings! I think I also need to go back a step in my assumption that I know a lot about emotions – when actually there is a lot to learn still. Maybe one day I will start a series of blog posts about specific emotions?
