Those who are "strong" focus on their suffering and loss and "learn" from the experience in a positive manner.. However, without guidance and inspiration it is nearly impossible. Religion, whether you believe in a God or not, provides a lot of inspiration in this area to those with their minds open to instruction and wisdom. Meditation I've found to be the best way to control your emotions. Through meditation you get to know your mind and body. It depends, as each individual is unique. Sufferance. Hardships of life. Wisdom. Dramatic experiences. Faith. Hope. Belief in a better future. Insanity. Illness. Self preservation instinct.

Taking a stock of their feeling and understanding where they are stemming from and not let them guide your decision making process. is a way to be emotionally strong. How if you ask is simple, when you are feeling emotionally very vulnerable, the best idea is to give space to yourself. Physically remove yourself from the situation. If that is not poossible then slowly build up the resilience to emotion by deep breathing. Even one or two deep breaths can do wonders. and then think of a happy thought.

I think that what makes a person emotionally strong is the will to keep ON, to keep DOING, despite what is happening "outside" of ourselves. Not giving up doesn't have to look heroic... but it might still feel like picking up the globe and that's OK. Because you've done it. To be even stronger still is to learn from every emotional downfall and high. To find a discipline in a strategy for overcoming, moving forward, and still remaining true to the evolution of yourself that will, truly, always continue. To know that life is about its contrasts and that we must feel and weave in and around with purpose is already being a step ahead of the curve. You are your own powerhouse and the source of your own emotions and learning how to live in them and with them is not about avoiding them. We are strong when we embrace them and still never shut ourselves down and off. Emotions guide us. Knowing that is part of emotional strength.

The ability to power through even when all hope is lost, a resilience which is so rare to find nowadays. The ability to recognize fully and not lie to yourself and deal with your issues. When you are emotionally strong you can absorb everything that’s going wrong help others and be strong for people. When tough times come along you need emotional strength and perseverance to get you through. The strength is found in many different ways of coping in helping yourself managing and dealing.a stoic attitude is emotional strength tasking your pain and handling it yourself not overflowing your emotions on to others but using them to help others

Seeking help even when they are scared, embracing adversity, not refusing to be a victim of their circumstances. When I think of someone who is emotionally strong, I think of a person who isn't devoid of their emotions but someone who is acknowledges their emotions and recognizes what to do. I think of someone who doesn't back down from a challenge and knows that saying no is an option. I think of someone who doesn't hold themselves back and do not overreact to things beyond their control. I think of someone who isn't afraid to ask for help. I think of someone who never, ever gives up and knows when to rest.

Emotionally strong person is brave enough to do things that will help him / her in the future. That can mean getting rid of unhealthy relationships, saying no to activities you don't want to do, do something to move you towards your goals, or many others. Strong person knows that he / she can deal with any situation or problem and doesn't give up even in those days when life doesn't seem so sunny and great. Everyone can be happy and confident when the life is great, but it takes a lot of courage to keep going in the dark times.

A person becomes emotionally strong once he completely understand about his own character and try to reframe the situations with what way he feels comfortable. He should act instead of reacting to any situations. He tries to understand the base of every emotions. The origin for every emotions, rules and regulations. Once he gets to know the exact reason with touch with reality. He can able to understand it and act in a right way. human brain is still mysterious. These are the words which is valid upto which science understand human brain completely. Emotion is a part of human brain.

A lot of people like to say that going through trauma and hard stuff is what makes someone (emotionally) strong. However, I disagree with that common idea. Trauma makes you traumatized. What makes someone emotionally strong is how they have learned to deal with their emotions. For instance, not being submerged by them is a good sign. Some therapists and psychologists like to talk about "emotional intelligence", which is definitely a interesting subject. What it is, basically, is the capacity to be aware of and controlling one's emotions, also how to express them correctly. I think you do learn from trauma and tough times, but it's how you get in control afterwards that makes you a emotionally strong person.

Being emotionally strong can mean many things. Sometimes it's having the ability to walk away from a situation even though it's hard because you know in the end that it will benefit you more. It could be making hard decisions, taking into consideration everything you know instead of guessing and hoping it works out well. Another one is being able to tell the difference between right and wrong. If you can see and understand that how you may be being treated is unacceptable and that something needs to be done about it, then that's a sign of being emotionally strong

What make a person emotionally strong is that they are able to express their feelings in a calm manner and that they are able to talk openly about what is in their mind. Emotionally strong people are non judgemental and they know how to show empathy and sympathy in the right way. They are also able to connect to people more and relate to others by what they feel inside and they feel for other people. They can support and stand up for people. They can also look to the positive side of things and can spread happiness over the world.
