Physical pain and physical pleasure are easy. As is being terrified or laughing my ass off at something hilarious. Everything else is extremely unclear.
Also... emotions and feelings are not interchangable. Feelings are necessarily conscious and physical whereas can be unconscious and psychological too.
Still, 99% of the time I have no idea what I'm feeling... or if I'm feeling anything real at all.
Our emotions are positive or negative just like how a charge is positive or negative. So, when you have a negative emotion such as anger and you judge it as something positive, that does not change the fact that this emotion is negative. It would be no different than judging a negative charge as being positive. The charge would still be negative.
