Why is it hard to control emotions?

Controlling your emotions doesn't mean ignoring them. It means you recognize them and act on them when appropriate, not randomly and uncontrollably whenever you feel like it. Take control of your life by taking control of your emotions. I think it is also good to recognize an emotion from the moment it materializes, as opposed to letting it build up and intensify. The last thing you want to do is ignore or repress your feelings, because if you're reading this, you probably know that when you do that, they tend to get worse and erupt later.

It can be hard to control our emotions because we can sometimes struggle to identify the cause(s). This can lead to further frustration, which added to the existing emotions can become unbearable. If we are not equip to handle this, we lose all control.

It is hard to control emotions because when our minds start to race, we forget about our surroundings and who and what are around us and it can become a bit overwhelming. That's why breathing and closing my eyes and trying to picture something serene has helped me.

Emotions are complicated things that we feel, sometimes when they are not expected. Now, imagine that these emotions are all in bottles. Once you uncork the lid (and start to feel something) it is very difficult to put the stopper back in as the liquid (emotion) is flowing out. You cannot control the speed that the liquid comes out of the bottle, but sometimes it is a good thing to not control your emotions. The phrase 'don't bottle it up' comes to mind. This means that you do not have to put yourself under the extra stress to keep the corks in the bottles and if you don't let your emotions out, the pressure in the bottles builds up.

Because in all honesty, emotions are something that human don't understand. We all have our problems but emotions are harder than ever to understand with the capacity our brain holds.

I think it is hard to control emotions because we use our emotions to see the world. Some people more than others rely on their emotions not their brain. It does't mean something is wrong with you just purely that you approach everything from your heart. Controlling your emotions is hard because it is like trying to control your thoughts. It is almost impossible because they are instantaneous and you cannot help their existence.

Because when emotions come you loose your conscience. You get so overwhelmed that it's impossible to ignore those feelings you get and if you somehow manage to control it, that control won't last long.

As humans, we tend to be emotional beings. Often times we will react to things emotionally and then try to use logic as a secondary reaction to support our feelings. The more we care, the more our emotions tend to amplify in their intensity. If you feel like you want to be in better control of your emotions, there are a lot of strategies you can use. One popular vein of strategies that you can research and employ for little to no cost and a very small amount of time or effort. There are a lot of resources about mindfulness here on 7cups as well as many on the internet. Best of luck!

It is hard to control emotions because you are immediately reacting on it stay calm and you could control of your emotion.

Because you believe that your emotions should be like it is and you believe you won't be able to change it, little do you know you need to be positive about yourself to get a positive life :)
