Why do I get so emotional over nothing?

You may think you are getting emotional over nothing because of our different views. We can get emotional over nothing because we can value things that, in the scheme of things, may not mean very much at all. We also have different insecurities that may not seem very significant. Our different experiences and personality result in these different values. Some of us are also more sensitive, and value the small things. Some are less so and only look at the big picture. We are all different, what is nothing to some may be someone's whole world, and as a community it is important to acknowledge that and accept when someone may be getting emotional 'over nothing', because we all have our different definitions of what 'nothing' is.

sometimes it's not because nothing happened. it may be because u bottle up so many things in u, that it just becomes a whole pile of negativity festering inside u. and it gets buried so deep u forget that it's there. that's why sometimes u get so emotional because your hidden pain and anguish is in there, trying to be released. so remember, never bottle anything up. if u need help, ask for it. that's what 7cups is for. to help each other. just remember that whatever it is, you are never walking alone. we will all walk together and complete this journey together.

I don't think anyone ever gets emotional over "nothing". I believe there's always some or the other reason. Maybe you have some repressed stuff and all the emotions from that is escaping you in other forms, or maybe the thing you're getting emotional over actually means something to you without you even realizing it. Sometimes it's possible that you've just had a really bad day and you've been holding it all in, but one small thing happens and the dam breaks. Or it's very much possible that it's just hormones, although if it's a long term thing then it's probably something else. Either way, try not to discard your feelings because they're important

It could be that all your emotions are kept and have build up. Therefore anything can trigger it at any time. Best to try dealing with the emotions one step at a time and trying to find the underlining problem that caused you to be emotional in the 1st place.

I can give two answers: a scientific one and a spiritual one. Scientifically, there are all sorts of bio-chemical processes going on in our body and our brain, and some of these affect our emotions. Since a lot of these processes take some time, it might be difficult to connect the emotion to the event that caused it. Spiritually, it is believed in Kabala (Jewish mysticism) that many feelings and emotions exist outside of us, and drift through us at different times. This is likened to watching fish swim around from the tiny windows in a submarine - to us they seem to appear and disappear randomly, but they are really out there doing other things we don't know about. In both cases there is no fault of yours in feeling emotional. It is more comforting to understand why we are feeling things, but even when we can't understand the feelings if we give them place and feel them, the feeling will pass and we will remain, stronger and wiser than we were.

Becoming emotional over "nothing" can be really difficult, sometimes this happens because we was affected by a similar thing. Such as if you was in a car crash you may be upset to talk about car crashes. so in reality its not overnothing, but rather something that's affected you that you haven't come to terms with yet. coping with your emotions vary person to person. you could identify whats making you feel this way first or use relaxation techniques to better your emotional well-being. exercise is also a good way to control your emotions. it can also be beneficial to talk to someone you trust about how your feeling.

emotions have a tendency to get "stuck" in your body, if you have experienced something traumatic like a car accident or something else where it was too much for your subconscoius to process it. Therefore the emotion get stuck somewhere in your body. Where it lodgeds it become like a radio-transmitter which interefer with the organs normal activities. For example if the emotion of ager is stuck in your body, then it is like you are always angry, so therefore any small thing that might get you angry, will get you angry because a part of you already are angry. There are methods to get these stuck emotions out, for example "The Emotion Code".

It might be for many different reasons but from my experience, this normally tends to happen when the person has a lot of welled up extreme emotions. It is like carrying a mountain solely made of suppressed emotions and therefore emotions leak out randomly like landslides. This makes quite difficult to predict when we might react to some issue emotionally and thus makes it quite possible that we suddenly burst over nothing. If this is the case then the best thing to do might be just talking to someone we can trust. this will lighten the total burden and make it much easier for us to handle our emotions.

Maybe cause sometimes you keep ignoring a lot of bad things instead of solving it and act strong and whatever but one by one it becomes too hard to hold yourself down cause there was too much going on and you just turned your back to it so that's why I guess we think we're emotional over nothing but the fact that there was a lot of things that happened it the past but still affecting us so we get emotional over smaLL things or even nothing so I think we just gotta open up and be aware of how we are feeling and don't ignore our emotions but accept it 💜

Sometimes, it is not really about nothing. That nothing could be something to you. Never undermine your emotions, if it is something to you, it is something! I usually say this a lot to myself. Why do I get so emotional! But find the root of all of the emotion. What did you feel emotional about? Why did you feel emotional about that? If it is something, it is not nothing, I can not stress that enough. Once you understand the root of emotion, you have the power. Change the root, do something about the root. With changing the root of your something, your emotions will change with it.
