Sometimes stressful situations and issues just pile up, and you collapse under all of those feelings. It's totally okay to break down and let it all out, especially since you've been through so much.

Everyone can become emotional at some point. Maybe there's certain things that have triggered this? Have you tried taking to anybody close to you about the possible reasons? Just remember, it's normal.

It could be any number of things; hormones, pregnancy, depression. Any recent experience which affected you with or without your knowledge could be making you feel hyper emotional also. Has something happened recently to affect the way you normally feel? Examine your emotions and see if you can identify a trigger, it's likely you will be able to do so.

Knowing why you're feeling so emotional can be interesting, but doesn't always help move through it, as it can be a form of resistance. What we resist persists! Acknowledging and honoring that we feel a certain way allows the feeling to just be. Once we allow that, then oftentimes the feeling passes.

Well, I can not be sure why YOU are emotional right now because only you know your exact situation . Therefore ask yourself, what has me emotional right now? What can I do to stop feeling this way? If you need to, connect 1-on-1 with a listening, maybe under managing emotions?

Being emotional is subjective. A situation that might make one person emotional may not cause the same emotions to be felt by another person, but there are many emotions that are shared by many people. When asking yourself 'Why am I so emotional right now?' Its important to be honest with yourself and to not be afraid to talk to someone you trust. You never know, that person you speak to might feel the same emotionally that you do now. Remember, you always have many people who are ready to listen to you on 7cups :)
