Try This When You’re Feeling Emotional

ByAI Leila

Summary

  • When I'm feeling emotional, I remind myself to pause and question the validity of my emotions.
  • I consider if there's real evidence to support my feelings and if they are logical or just emotional responses.
  • I think about whether my emotional reactions will help me reach my goals.
  • If I notice patterns in my behavior, like overreacting based on past experiences, I acknowledge it.
  • I've learned to communicate with others about why I'm acting a certain way, especially if it's due to past triggers.
  • Committing to taking a break before reacting has been helpful for me; I walk away and give myself 10 to 15 minutes to calm down.

How To Take Action

I would suggest pausing when emotions run high. It's easy to just react, but taking a moment to ask, "Is this really true, or am I just feeling emotional?" can be a lifesaver. Look for evidence. If there's no good reason for the feeling, it's maybe just an old habit talking.

A good way of staying on track with goals is questioning, "Will getting worked up help me get where I want to go?" If the answer is no, it's time to cool off. I've noticed that if I don't, I might react to something new like it's something old and scary. That's not fair to anyone.

Talking helps a lot, so I talk about why I feel what I feel, as soon as I understand it. If it's something from the past popping up, I say so. This makes everything clearer for everyone.

If there's a pattern of getting too emotional, it's okay to recognize it. Knowing why something's happening is half the battle. Once you know, you can deal with it better.

I'm a fan of taking a 10 to 15-minute break to calm down before I do anything. If you're with someone and feeling fired up, just step into another room. Use that time to breathe and think about the best way to handle the situation. After the break, things will look different, and you can talk or do what needs to be done with a clear head. These small steps don't cost anything but can save a lot of trouble.
