Sorry about the glare. You will need to open the picture in another tab and zoom in to see it better to get any real use out of it. But, this is one of the most helpful resources I have ever received at the psych hospital before!!
Though the original intention of the worksheet was to teach us to use the more complicated words for our feelings because this idea that a lot of people ignore you when you give "basic feelings", I found a different use for it. As an autistic with alexithymia, I struggle to identify any of my emotions by name, so having a worksheet that I can actively look at that will possibly allow me to name one of the 12 basic feelings based on any of those more complicated words I might be able to recognize is honestly the biggest win ever.
Whether you wish to use it for my therapist's intended purpose, the purpose I found use for it, writing, or whatever else you need it for - please take this gift.
