That book literally changed my life, not saying I'm in a perfect place but man.. it's made me realize a lot of things, and helped me make a change within myself and my life in general.I used to be extremely emotional and it was a nightmare. I don't think emotions should control us or dictate our behaviour. They can point to some things, yes, but in the end they're just that - fleeting emotions that will eventually pass. I'd like to add that there are healthy emotions - the ones that pop up naturally and only last for a few minutes - and then there is your mind, which makes you think that you're feeling something. That's usually what happens when you "wallow" in a negative "emotion" for too long. It's simply not natural nor healthy (unless we're talking about extreme situations like loss) - it's basically your mind convincing you that you're sad / unhappy, because it's the emotion your ego associates with most. When you're used to feeling unhappy, well.. your whole identity is built on that idea - "I'm an emotional / moody / whatever person. That's who I am". But everything starts from the mind. A thought, an idea becomes your reality, your truth. And you can change that, by training your mind to stop the negative / useless thoughts.
this is EXACTLY what I was trying to say but you put it so beautifuly, Moonchie

I don't want to be around moody people like me so I'm always around people that are pretty content most of the time.
I'm always there for people soaking up their worries and troubles, always there to lend an ear and words of advice. I don't have anyone to talk me through anything the way I do others.
When I'm around more receptive people, I tend to sulk in my feelings a lot more than when I'm around masculine-dominant people.I eventually get over what's griping me but my problem is not letting little things get to me. I will be having the time of my life and one little thing like not being able to find a missing article of clothing that I want will set me off. I will eventually get over it, but I take longer than most and I wish I wasn't like that. IP: Logged |

I actually agree with your earlier post, when I read it I was like "oh yeahhh" :nods:
We just.. get each other

Goatcat! Come on girl, don't be so hard on yourself. I'm pretty sure you'll learn to deal with your emotions, it's just a matter of time. Take it easy, and always remind yourself that "this too shall pass".

talk to those people that you're always lending an ear too, those are the people who are there for you. i used to do that too, hold everything in because i just wanted to just be there for people and not burden them with my **** , but it's sooooo important to put your own voice forward. if these are people who are trusting you with their feelings and insecurities, then they're most likely also going to be there for you if you reach out to them.

I wish I only had one emotion and that would be happiness.
I second that. IP: Logged |

Being sensitive is a gift and if others don't appreciate that aspect of you, then to hell with them. You live your life for you. Emotional management will help you cope with being sensitive. Cursing that aspect of yourself may produce self hate instead of self love. There is nothing you can do to delete that part of yourself. I don't know what else to say. IP: Logged |

Actually crying all the time is physically painful. It burns the skin, causes headaches and sore throats. I hate it, too. I like happiness far better.I've been around a lot of miserable people and I end up a thousand times worse than them. Seek out good-time-happy-people, experiences and forget about the rest or you won't make it through. It's the secret to longevity. Weed out the misery and seek the happiness. I can't be around people who have it in for me for long, if at all and it helps my mood so much to limit time with them and go on to happy stuff. IP: Logged |

Feeling only happiness sounds like a Stepford Wife. They tend to marry men like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Bdyzc5sdQo Granted, championing the Beast only works right in Disney and too many romance novels which should not be confused for real life...but I'll excuse the girl due to her being too young to realize that yet. At least she knows better than to smile while making her man a sandwich (*).  (*Please, no one suck the humor out of this. Thanks.) IP: Logged |
