What makes a person emotionally strong?

Confidence and love is what makes a person strong. Love them and they gain confidence , when they are confident about themselves they will love themselves and those around . So accosting to me love and confident goes simultaneously. It is like a process where one is nothing without the other or we can say one supports the other . In one way of the other. With love comes kindness , goodness and happiness . In fact all virtues we look for in people around and all virtues we should have within us at all times. So spread love.

An emotionally strong person has gone through many hardships and has learned how to(somewhat) navigate their feelings. Almost like you teach yourself how to deal with them & keep them in your grasp. Going through hardships, physical & mental illnesses, family tragedies; even the loss of someone. It’s not so much that people are emotionally strong, it’s just more about learning how to somewhat control them. I’m not saying it’s always going to work, but any step in a direction you WANT to go towards is an amazing one. Have faith in yourself & never give up on finding that self love.

A person who is emotionally strong isn’t necessarily someone who never cries and keeps their emotions within. It’s someone who acknowledges all their pain and emotion and deals with it, whether they need to rant about it and tell someone or if they need to cry and break down a little bit. Either way, they’re acknowledging their struggles and they’re coping with it, which is extremely brave and they must be incredibly emotionally strong to be accepting their pain, welcoming it so they can deal with it and overcome it so they get to a point where they no longer feel the pain.

This is a very tough question. As there is no right or wrong answer. Emotionally strong could be someone who takes care of their mental health. It could also be someone who is immensely happy. There are so many definitions to this. A person may be emotionally strong because they journal all their thoughts and feelings. They may care greatly about themselves. They may take charge of their health. An emotionally strong person may be someone who cares for other people while caring for themselves. They may live for themselves. They may go above and beyond to fine their happiness

Emotional strength is a very individualistized characteristic. For some people, emotional strength is being able to identify and process their emotions and figure out what their feelings are telling them. For others, emotional strength is not letting their emotions overwhelm them or prevent them from doing things. To me, emotional strength means allowing yourself to feel your emotions and experience them instead of invalidating your feelings or trying to diminish them. When I worked on being emotionally strong, I also worked on allowing myself to reach out for help when I was overwhelmed, and worked on having the emotional intelligence to know when my feelings were becoming too much for me to handle alone, and when to back away from an emotional situation or conversation. Emotional strength is, in a way, about self-care and figuring out how to best care for you when you are experiencing powerful emotions.

For a huge part of my life, I was just sad and angry. The smallest things set me off. Even when I knew the things I was crying over or getting angry over were so silly, I couldn't control myself. I always felt vulnerable and had a lot of defenses. And then there came a turning point in my life and it was life changing and painful and heart breaking. For two years I kept mainly to myself and explored the depths of my soul and by the time, I had to step in to the world again, something had changed in me. I had recognized my shortcomings, mistakes and weaknesses. I accepted myself, tried to overcome some shit and ofcourse it's not easy to make everything right. I ended up making peace with who I was as a whole, faults and all. Now I feel grounded. I still breakdown sometimes but I know that I can get over most things in life. I have become open minded, understanding and empathetic. So I feel a person who is emotionally strong loves themselves and has the ability to accept others the way they are.

It all depends on what being emotionally strong means to you. From a life coach perspective, I would say a person is emotionally strong when they are balanced in their life. They are able to support others while maintaining their own emotional health. They are the person you can count on when you need them, but they also know their own boundaries and can say no without feeling guilt. Another sign is knowing how to empathize with others without losing your own self in their troubles. You feel for them while understanding that you are not responsible for their problems, only for supporting them through the problems.

Experiences are what makes a person emotionally strong. You can't be emotionally strong if you've never gone through a tough experience. Experiences are what shape our lives and how we choose to live them as humans. When you go through hard times, you often come out the other side stronger. Whether physically or emotionally or otherwise. Defining what makes a person emotionally strong isn't a science. Different people can be emotionally strong in different ways. What is extremely painful for one person might be an average day for another. What's important is to know everyone is going through something, so treat everyone with kindness.

I believe that what makes a person emotionally strong is their ability to persist. Think of yourself as a flame, one that flickers and dies down but continues to burn nonetheless; sure, at times you may ebb to a light so dim you're unsure as to whether the fire is still going, and it may make you think lesser of yourself... but you'll come back. The quality of resilience is something that many find admirable, and it's not without reason. There will be times when you feel as though the world is trying to snuff out your light, but if you persist you'll find that there's more. That's what I think makes a person emotionally strong. It's human to come to a standstill, but it's also human to trudge onwards.

The are in touch with there emotions and can find ways to help them selves calm down. When someone is overwhelmed they can realize before they are panicked. When someone realizes they’re getting stressed they find helpful ways that calm their selves down. Someone who is in touched with there emotions don’t blow up easily or get irritated easily at other people. Before someone will yell or have unhealthy emotions they realize it and will notice they need a break. Someone emotionally strong knows ways that they can calm down. Someone who’s emotionally strong knows a way they can take a break to calm themselves down.

Though however cliched this answer might sound but this is my personal experience :P PAIN makes a person emotionally strong , be it physical pain or emotional ! Pain is not only a great teacher , motivator but also a friend (of sorts) we always get to learn something new out of pain we receive, just to avoid the same pain in future . But it does not end , it keeps coming back and we keep learning from it just to keep it as far away from us as possible . When you have been broken enough times , by enough people, in enough ways - you make that your strength ! and that's how you grow Strong Emotionally :) Life is hard agreed , but it has it's moments too, so let's cherish the good and keep learning from the pain ! Lastly keep smiling because you are more brave than you think :D !

There are, of course, many things that can make a person emotionally strong, but, in my opinion, it is the ability to pick ourselves up after a downfall in life. In my personal experience, it was getting tons of college rejection letters. Yikes. Had my whole future planned and it was crushed so instantly, followed with a breakup. But I knew I needed to overcome that situation and those feelings eventually, in order to grow as a person and be able to be happy again. I didn’t think of how I was unhappy at the time, I thought of how I wanted to be happy again, and I needed to start picking myself up again, in order to be on the right path of achieving that goal. Still working on it❤️💪🏻

There's a popular quote saying: "Remember why you started". Often times, when we are under pressure, we cannot think straight and hence, we become overwhelmed with the simplest things. I got in a new program after completing University. I basically never took a break from school since elementary. I happen to be in one of the most stressful programs at my school and although, I was starting the semester pretty well last fall 2018, my depression kicked in and I started failing every exam. At the end of the semester, I ended up failing my final oral and in this intensive program, if you fail either the theory portion or the oral component, you fail the overall course automatically, even if your overall grade is a passing grade. I spent the last 8 months out of school trying not to feel like a failure. I traveled, worked out regularly, spent time with my friends, family, and most especially, I spent time with myself and this semester, I started school again with a much more positive mindset. All to say that, we all have bad days, we all have daily struggles, but it's how you deal with those situations. Also when you are faced with a situation, think of how you will deal with it. Often times, changing the way we look at a situation can have a positive impact on our overall mental state.

Hm... good questions. Some people seem to be naturally strong. In my opinion, emotionally strong people are usually really empathetic towards others and themselves. And the “themselves” is very important in that case. They came to a good understanding of their feelings and emotions. They consider these are natural and don’t need to be repressed... though it’s more in the way they are expressed that they show their maturity. Emotional maturity brings emotional strength: acknowledging our own feelings and expressing them in a sane way so it doesn’t affect others in a problematic way. Emotions emerge naturally and flow. It’s important to be considerate of ourselves why they happen. We can’t really and shouldn’t try to turn them off. But we can control how we communicate them as best as we can. In the end we’re only humans

Resilience and a suitcase full of lots of options for self care. A reliable support system is key. Community involvement is also beneficial. A set routine is also shown to be beneficial to resiliency. If a person has multiple safe avenues of self expression I believe they have emotional strength. Exercise is also a valuable outlet for emotional strength. Art is an invaluable tool for self expression. Social groups as well contribute to a person’s emotional well being. Some people find great resiliency by using alone time to recoup and heal their emotional and spiritual energy. Love is also integral. Purpose and self worthiness all contribute to emotional strength.

A person is able to come form all life backgrounds and come out emotionally strong, what it means is to be able to handle things in a sense that is helpful to yourself, and those around you.

Therefore to be emotionally strong is to be the best you can be and express those feelings in a positive way even if the situation is negative and has impacted you negatively.

Often times our own weaknesses can provide us with the greatest emotion strength by providing the foundation for who we are in our entirety. Our weaknesses can make us stronger by showing us more about who we are. They provide insights into a different part of ourselves that we may not always be proudest of or even comfortable with, but are a great point of focusing on so that we may later improve on ourselves. In addition, once we embrace our weaknesses, we can truly accept ourselves for who we are and gain a greater emotional strength that can help us thrive in all environments and aspects of our lives.

Being okay with who you are and what you stand for. We can all think of little things we don’t like about ourselves, but if you can live yourself and know that you try to live each day with the best of intentions, you’ll feel peace. That doesn’t mean we don’t have bad days, but to remember that and know THAT was your best that day. Don’t hold yourself to judgment, allow the good with the bad, always striving to do and be your best.. whatever that means to you. By doing this we establish personal boundaries, and can be confident to not have those boundaries crossed. Boundaries are for us, not others. We decide what we accept and allow in our lives, and if you feel like there’s something that pushes your boundaries, you make the choice to set it back in place, to where you feel happiest and most comfortable

Emotionally strong is someone who is like you. You’re currently asking for help or coming to let someone listen to you. It’s the best thing that you can do is to ask for someone listen to you. That makes you strong as a human being. But crying makes you strong as well. Even the strongest people in the world cry and it’s important that you do. It makes you emotionally strong to express what’s wrong. And try to find solutions to what is wrong and have someone listen to you. It makes things incredibly better but it makes you better in the end of the situation

A person can be emotionally strong when they accept, acknowledge, and take the time to manage their emotions whenever they are going through tough times. It has been ingrained into many of us that being "strong" and ignoring our emotions while continuing on with our daily responsibilities in life is the right way, but really it is just repressing our emotions and feelings further and that is not healthy as we will eventually reach a breaking point. Manging our emotions can be done by ourselves if we have the necessary knowledge to help ourselves, but sometimes we need to have the courage to seek help from others, whether be it professional help or just someone that we can trust to give us an unbiased opinion. Sometimes it's not even advice we need but the physical comforting presence of someone we are close to. To be strong is to be able to admit that at times we are feeling vulnerable and be in the present moment, and eventually, the bad times will pass.

I think the idea of being emotionally strong is dependent on how much pressure your 'bottle' can take before it becomes full and explodes. Everyone has different sized bottles, some only have small bottles which can become full from the most minor situations. Some have bottles that are so large, that they will never really explode. We can increase the size of our bottle through self-awareness, understanding, acceptance and education. Or we can decrease the size of our bottle through not being kind/taking care of ourselves. Regardless of how 'emotionally strong' someone may seem however, not everyone expresses emotions in the same way and what you see on the surface, may not be the same as what is going on beneath.

I would consider myself to be emotionally resilient due to my tough experiences. Emotional strength, in my opinion, is typically not something that happens overnight. Like working a muscle, it takes consistency and time spent in discomfort to gradually build resistance.
