Accessible Emotion Chart
I created the emotion chart below to be accessible for anyone using a screen reader. There are 7 tables below. The headings are names of 7 basic emotions. Find the table with the emotion that most describes how you’re feeling. Then read the header row from left to the right, which has a breakdown of more specific emotions you could be feeling. After you find your emotion go down to the second row to find 2 more specific emotions that you could be feeling.
On mobile the emotions may be in a column downwards rather than a row to the right. After you find the table with your emotion, read the first column down and then move to the right to find the more specific emotion.
