"I feel badly."
What the heck is that supposed to mean? "Badly" is an adverb. That means that you're performing the act of feeling, but you're doing it badly. In which case it becomes a personal problem which needs practice to overcome. And probably TMI.
What you should be saying is that you feel bad.
