Ever had a feeling or emotion you can't quite explain? There are tons of emotions out there that mean certain things that people don't know about. Do you ever feel like life is passing you by? That is called Torschlusspanik. Or that something just feels slightly out of place? You are experiencing something called Monachopis. I took to the internet and found ten crazy emotions that a lot of people feel but can't quite figure out what they are? So play along! How many of these do you sometimes have?

1. Sonder

This emotion is the bittersweetness of having arrived in the future, realizing how things are, and not being able to tell your past self. A lot of us feel this every single day and don't actually realize it. Whether it may be graduating high school or college, finally going on a date with that person you've been crushing on, starting your dream job or moving into a new apartment or house. Remember this emotion next time you start a new chapter in your life

2. Jouska

Jouska is a hypothetical conversation that you compulsively play out in your head. It's very similar to having imaginary friends, but more accepted as an adult. You may play out a situation of going on a date, giving a big presentation or meeting a celebrity.

3. Chrysalism

This is the amniotic tranquility of being indoors during a thunderstorm. One of my most favorite places to be is curled up by the fire reading a book during a storm, and I know I'm not the only one...

4. Vemodalen

This means the frustration of photographing something amazing when thousands of identical pictures already exist. As a photographer, I know the struggle of this one. You want to be original but the thing right in front of you is so amazingly cool.

5. Liberosis

Liberosis is basically the desire to care less about certain things. To loosen your grip on your life, to stop glancing behind you every few steps, afraid that someone will snatch it from you before you reach the end zone—rather hold your life loosely and playfully, like a volleyball, keeping it in the air, with only quick fleeting interventions, bouncing freely in the hands of trusted friends, always in play.Second-semester seniors know what I'm talking about on this one...

6. Onism

This is the awareness of knowing how little of the world you will actually see and explore. The world is a giant place and everyone wants to explore as much of it as we can. Imagine looking at a map and seeing how little of it that you have actually seen, knowing you can do little to change that.

7. Nodus Tollens

The realization that the plot of your life doesn’t make sense to you anymore — that although you thought you were following the arc of the story, you keep finding yourself immersed in passages you don’t understand, that don’t even seem to belong in the same genre — which requires you to go back and reread the chapters you had originally skimmed to get to the good parts, only to learn that all along you were supposed to choose your own adventure.

8. Vellichor

The strange wistfulness of used bookstores, which are somehow infused with the passage of time — filled with thousands of old books you’ll never have time to read, each of which is itself locked in its own era, bound and dated and papered over like an old room the author abandoned years ago, a hidden annex littered with thoughts left just as they were on the day they were captured.
