Answer:
1) When was the last time you suppressed (deliberately held back) a thought or action? Tell what the nature of the emotion was
- It was last month I held back my anger at my friend.I wanted to shout and scream at her but instead I decided to keep quiet.
We were supposed to meet around nine in the morning and she ended up showing up 2 hours later with no proper excuse .
2) Tell about the context you were in
-She had just finished her exams the day before which made me feel that she probably was tired after a night of studying and the stress of the exams;probably she overslept hence I had to be considerate of her situation.
We were also meeting in town and I personally don't believe in shouting at someone in a public place .
3) How did the situation unfold because of your suppression, how was it made better or worse?
-After a while I was calm , I forgot about it all and we ended up having the fun day that we had planned to have.
4) How would circumstances have unfolded differently if you had acted upon your emotions?
-If I had acted upon my emotions we probably would have fought and left without talking to each other which would have ruined both our day and all the plans we had.
5) How does your experience support or refute this claim\
- I think it depends on the situation of course there are moment where one needs to actual express their emotions otherwise a long time of supressing emotions may lead to serious issues in the future there are situation that may require that someone just burst out their emotions in order to release the stress or the pressure that they are feeling inside .
