A feelings-check one-pager

When a feeling is big and blurry, it's hard to know what you even need. This sheet moves from "something's up" to "here's what might help". Answer what you can and skip the rest. Nothing here is scored or stored.

Feelings check

thought club.

Right now I feel (a plain word or two)

Where I feel it in my body

What might be underneath

On a scale of small to huge, how big does it feel?

Is this feeling telling me a story? What is it?

Is that story definitely true, or could there be another explanation?

What I need right now

One small, kind thing I can do next

If this keeps feeling too big, who could I talk to?

How to use it

Fill in whatever you can when a feeling is loud and won't name itself. You don't have to answer everything, and you don't have to do it in order. Naming a feeling often shrinks it a little, so even getting one word down can help.

Keep it just for you, or hand it to someone so they don't have to guess.
