我不知道自己是什么感觉

Understand it, reflect on it, notice what you might need, try a short exercise, and keep anything you write — privately, only if you want to.

从这里开始

What might help right now?

Pick whatever feels possible. There's no right answer, and you can come back to the others any time.

Step 1 · Understand

When you can't name it yet

Not being able to name a feeling is very common, especially after trauma. Your system may have learned that noticing was unsafe. Starting with the body is often gentler than searching for the right word.

Things people sometimes notice in the body

Tight chest

A band across the chest, or breath that won't go all the way down.

Heavy

Limbs and body feeling weighted, slow, hard to move.

Restless

Unable to settle, needing to move or do something.

Shaky

Trembling hands, wobbly legs, a fizzing under the skin.

Racing heart

A fast or pounding heartbeat with nothing obvious happening.

Lump in throat

A closing throat, words that won't come out.

Tense jaw

Jaw, shoulders or stomach gripping without you deciding to.

Sick or nauseous

A turning stomach, no appetite, or a queasy edge.

Hot

Heat rising in the face, chest or hands.

Cold

Chilled, shivery, or as though warmth has drained away.

Empty

A hollow space where feeling usually is.

脱离感

Watching yourself from a distance, or the room feeling unreal.

麻木

Little sensation at all, as though the volume is turned down.

I can't notice anything

That's a completely valid answer. Noticing takes practice, and it can come back slowly.
