Does it become easier to manage your emotions as you become older or not ?

I don't think it is as simple as that. Firstly, we are unable to predict just how much emotions we will have, making it hard to manage. The emotions we have are very well affected by the environment, people around us and even events in our lives, so even if you have grown older, it may still be difficult to manage your emotions, depending on how much something has affected you. Secondly, I don't think age is a good indication. It's like saying the older are wiser. Well, it's not always true. I once read an article, saying that even the elderly are unsure of their lives. Yep they probably have more experiences, they are expected to be more capable of their own emotions. But hey, we're dealing with emotions here, these erratic, spontaneous, eccentric little things! Well, fret not guys. I feel that although we may not exactly come to manage emotions more effectively in future, you have to trust yourself. I feel like when we are needed to, we will deal with emotions effectively. Life is unexpected. But hey, we've always dealt with it, with or without help! Believe in yourself guys! :)

I think it does. The more experience I have dealing with negative feelings, the more I can bring them to light. Monsters always die in the light.

become older doesn't mean everyone can be wise and mature (physically, emotions and act). Problems and times will teach each of s to grow up, shape your personality and emotions become sharpens and mature.

From my experience, it is not easy to compare managing emotions from when you are younger to when you are older because you experience emotions differently. When I have situations now that I have been working on handling since I was younger, it is easier to manage my emotions, but when I am confronted with new emotional situations they are still hard to manage.

I think it does - or at least it becomes a lot less acceptable to display emotions as you get older (which I think is sad). You're rarely going to see a grown man behave in the same way as a primary school boy. But i feel like my emotions are less intense now in my 30's than they were in my teens or my 20's. As you get older you get more perspective, more experience and a stabler physical system and I think can all really dampen emotional intensity.

Usually they do, but not all adults are the shining example of emotional maturity because some act like children. As long as you are honest with yourself and continue to want to learn about yourself then you are on the right path.

For me I find it comes with work and consciousness and not with age. Just because I'm getting older doesn't mean I'm getting better at managing my emotions. Being conscious of them and working on them are what does make it easier to manage them.

no, management of emotions is nothing related to age. It varies for situation to situation, age gets us more experiences and maturity usually but it does not mean that we can be good at managing emotions. Any body and everybody can having hard time managing emotions and sometimes all we need is a soothing cup of tea and a non judgmental ear to listen.

I think with age, comes more experience with managing emotions and learning from past-mistakes. Also, as you get more experience, your perception on things will change and make it easier to manage emotions from a different viewpoint.

Yes!! Especially when you get over the tween stage. Being in middle school is awful! Even if you're super popular, and have "the perfect life", going through puberty/all that emotional stuff, is going to be difficult.
