So it is to be observed that all these mental functions depend on each other to be activated just for making the human beings feel themselves and the surroundings they are living within. The human beings have to feel something through reaction, perception, pain, sensitivity, excitement, sense, pleasure, awareness, belief, sentiment, apprehension, thought, suspicion, instinct, opinion, notion, view, emotion, impression. Thus let’s try to cope up with all the feelings!
