When you are saying how a person is feeling to you use subjunctive or imperfect. I am really confused about the subjunctive tense and I have a huge test on Monday over the entire unit.

I don't see the connection between the subjunctive and the imperfect past tense (first of all, one is a mood and the other is a tense).
If you are talking about how a person is feeling you would not use the past tense.
Could you give us some examples to clarify your question?
Are you asking about the subjunctive with verbs of emotion?
