<div class="topicTextNotes"><div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">A useful notion
in understanding how we feel is that of primary and secondary emotions.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="5"><span style="font-size:18pt"><b>Primary emotions</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="4"><span style="font-size:14pt"><b>What is felt
first</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Primary emotions
are those that we feel first, as a first response to a situation. Thus, if we are
threatened, we may feel fear. When we hear of a death, we may feel sadness. They are
unthinking, instinctive responses that we have. We will typically see these in animals also, which
confirms our suspicion that they have an evolutionary basis.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Typical primary
emotions include </span></font><a href="Fear.html#Topic20" ><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span

(although it is worth noting
that these can also be felt as secondary emotions).</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="4"><span style="font-size:14pt"><b>Often transient</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">The problem sometimes
with primary emotions is that they disappear as fast as they appear.
Their replacement by secondary emotions complicates the situation, making it difficult to
understand what is really going on.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="5"><span style="font-size:18pt"><b>Secondary emotions</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="4"><span style="font-size:14pt"><b>What is felt
next</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Secondary emotions
appear after primary emotions. They may be caused directly by them, for
example where the fear of a threat turns to anger that fuels the body for a fight reaction. They
may also come from more complex chains of thinking.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="4"><span style="font-size:14pt"><b>Simple or mixed
feelings</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Secondary emotions
may be simple feelings or may be a mix as more emotions join the fray.
Thus news of a wartime victory may start with feelings of joy, but then get tinged with sadness
for the loss of life.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="6"><span style="font-size:24pt"><b>So what?</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">If you want to
diagnose a person's condition, then looking at primary and secondary emotions
gives you a fuller picture.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">To find the real
issue or cause of the person's condition, look for the primary emotion. Do not
blindly accept the emotion you see as the primary emotion, but try to find what may have come
first.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">The secondary emotions
give you a picture of the person's mental processing of the primary
emotion. Question them, slowing down their mental process, to determine the internal reasoning
as to why they came to feel the secondary emotions. This will often be unconscious and can be
as big a surprise to them as it is to you.</span></font><span></span></div></div>
