What It Is:
This is a DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) worksheet titled 'Analyzing Emotions.' It guides the user to reflect on a recent situation with a strong emotional reaction. The worksheet prompts the user to identify the primary emotion, its intensity (0-100), the event that triggered it, factors that made them vulnerable, their interpretation of the situation, physical sensations, urges, facial expressions/posture, words spoken, actions taken, and the aftereffects of the event. There's space for the user to write their name at the top.
Grade Level Suitability:
This worksheet is most suitable for high school students (Grades 9-12) and adults. The questions require abstract thinking, emotional maturity, and self-awareness. Younger students may not have the cognitive or emotional capacity to fully engage with the material.
Why Use It:

By analyzing a specific emotional experience, users can gain insight into the triggers, vulnerabilities, and consequences associated with their emotions. This promotes self-reflection, emotional processing, and the development of coping strategies.
How to Use It:
First, recall a recent situation where you had a strong emotional reaction. Identify the primary emotion you experienced. Then, work through each question, providing as much detail as possible. Be honest and specific in your responses. Consider using a separate sheet for each emotion if you experienced multiple strong emotions.
