The first three link references are my top choices for feeling lists and lists of positive and negative emotions with definitions. The links at the bottom are lists with no definitions but some include synonyms which may prove helpful. There are also links to sites with emotion faces and a category called other where various lists and feelings/emotion based sites will be listed.
*** Emotions definitions and links, good information, lots of links to specific emotions found at The Free Dictionary by Farlex.
*** Emotions defined, good list, good definitions, plenty of links, still on The Free Dictionary web page.
Examples of what you’ll find on the above link:
shame - a painful emotion resulting from an awareness of inadequacy or guilt
despair - the feeling that everything is wrong and nothing will turn out well; “they moaned in despair and dismay”; “one harsh word would send her into the depths of despair”
By clicking the links you’ll be redirected to deeper discussions and more emotions lists and definitions.
***Basic Emotions ***- lists and synonyms, definitions, examples and names of those who theorized emotions. Impressive.
** Feeling words with synonyms from the Healthy Relationships web page.
** Feelings list in order of intensity, light to heavy. For instance, when listing words for mad they start out with bothered and end with blind rage. Down starts out with down and ends with devastated. Good list to gauge level of specific emotions from the It Takes A Village To Save A Marriage web page.

I’m interested in more feelings lists. Leave comments linking to lists. You may link to this page but please do not do a copy/paste in part or in whole. Thanks.
I’ve come across the first two, but not the third. Interesting.
The thing that seemed to help me the most was a set of line drawings. Just the words never helped me much. But I just didn’t know how to define them. Dictionary definitions didn’t help matters.
I don’t know where I found the image. I lost the link after I uploaded it to my photobucket account. But you can download it from here.
