Emotions

There are four positive emotions and four negative emotions. Write a short "first thing that pops into your mind" sentence for each. If there's an emotion you can't write a sentence for, you've identified your problem. This omitted feeling is often the one that is simmering beneath the surface and triggering overeating. - The Solution by Laurel Mellin

Grateful – I feel grateful I have a job.
Happy – I feel happy I got my new books.
Secure – I don’t feel secure.
Proud – I feel proud that Diesel gave me a good review on Happenstance.
Angry – I feel angry that ** is dead.
Sad – I feel sad that ** felt he had to kill himself.
Afraid – I feel afraid ** killed himself.
Guilty – I feel guilty about not calling big Erika back.

So, why don't I feel secure? Well, that I know. How do I feel secure? That I've never been able to discover. The book is on order. Maybe it will help me find the answer.
