It could be a sign of an underlying mental illness. Perhaps paranoia, depression or something else. However, the far more likely answer is that you're simply overly sensitive at the moment due to something else in your life causing you grief or sadness. Take a moment to reflect on how you can improve your own happiness and create a plan for yourself. Do things that you like to do, go places you've never been, hang out with that one friend you haven't seen in a while. When all of this is done and you're feeling a little better, I'm sure you'll find that you no longer overreact to little things.

One of the reasons I can identify is you possess a lot of built-up emotional tension that you haven't released. So when a trifle presents itself, you tend to recruit the same patterns that you did when you were faced with a legit and challenging emotional trauma.

If you're getting emotional over it, then it's probably not nothing. It may seem like nothing, but it must matter to you if it makes you feel emotional.

Getting emotional over a lot of things has a lot of explanations. You may just be hypersensitive. This is when we simply are very emotionally fragile. This could be because of a hormonal imbalance, past experience, or disorder. Sometimes we are just overwhelmed and don't share our feelings enough. Hang in there, and remember that there is nothing wrong with feeling life the way it comes. If you want to cry, cry. If you want to be so very happy, do so. If you're angry, be angry. You are alive so live and feel. Just remember that others have feelings as well.

Some people are just naturally over-sensitive so its nothing to worry about. Sometimes we may need to however find ways to cope with these natural feelings and every person has a different way of coping with different mood swings so you should really ask yourself how you can manage

It may appear that you're being emotional over nothing, but it most likely means there is something bothering you that you haven't put your finger on. Misplaced or unidentified emotions can burst out in inappropriate forms or moments. Trying to sort through what triggers the emotional outbursts, preferably with a trained professional, can help you deal with them adequately. It can also help if, when you get emotional, you stop and reflect on what was the immediate cause. You could even write it down, it can end up showing you a pattern of triggers, and help you get to the underlying cause of it.
