How are you feeling?

People will often ask you this question and the trouble is you won't always know the answer. 

Feelings are complicated things and it can be hard to work out how you do feel.  Sometimes we know why we don't feel so good and sometimes we have no idea.

All of this is normal and it is our job to help you understand and talk about all feelings - especially the uncomfortable ones like worry, anger and sadness.
