Psychology of Stress Part 9 Emotions

Emotions are the language of everybody’s mental and emotional state of being. They're commonly tied to an individuals social and physical sensory feelings. Emotions are the sort of feelings used to react to fear, joy, love, sadness, hate, disgust, pleasure and stress. All the same, there are times when individuals have to command or suppress their emotions to prevent damaging behaviors.

Individuals who don't know how to command their emotions are often engaged in a fight, substance abuse, or undue stress that may literally put their lives in danger. This is commonly caused by parental upbringing, social developing, inherent nature, and biological and genetic factors.
Individuals who don't know how to command their emotions commonly exhibit the following symptoms:

 Unrestrained, intense anger.

 Impulsiveness in substance use, sex, driving, stress, etc.

 Doubt about relationships, values, self-image, and goals.

 Lack of self-regard.

 Suicidal leanings.

 Chronic boredom.

 Consistent dread of abandonment.

 Extreme mood swings that include recurrent intense depressive disorder and anxiety.

 Unstable personal relationships.

Experts state that individuals who don't have power over their emotions require a way to start gaining self-confidence, and realize their self-worth.

Emotions are needed in order to live life fully. All the same, individuals need to distinguish their emotions and decide if they're appropriate to given situations to prevent consequences.
For a few individuals, an emotion may be strong enough to take over what the brain dictates. It overrules logical reasoning that often results to damaging emotional reaction and loss of inner peace.

To avoid unneeded conflicts, experts suggest self-talk. This helps in taking a step back and analyzing the given set of circumstances before reacting. This process gives way in balancing logical thinking and emotional responses. As a result, individuals will learn to separate feelings from truth and may effectively express thoughts that are not deleterious to anybody.

When an individual understands how to manage emotions effectively, he's frequently described as:

 Somebody who has high emotional intelligence.

 Somebody who understands how to effectively handle conflicts.

 Somebody who has logical reasoning.

 Somebody who has inner peace.

 Somebody who's secure and confident about himself.

Becoming that individual who understands how to command emotions, particularly in public, is easier said than done. All the same, following these simple steps may help defeat this challenge:

1. Command emotions by controlling thoughts. Damaging thoughts reduce energy required to take action. Pessimists are broadly depressed and insecure individuals who don't know how to manage

emotions, particularly on stressful situations. On the other hand, favorable thoughts allow individuals to center on the great side to confront situations in a rational fashion by not letting emotions impair their sound judgment.

2. Learn how to decelerate anger. Anger pushes individuals to state or do hurtful or destructive things that can't be unsaid or undo later on. Hold back anger by learning self-command. Visualize conceivable consequences of action due to anger; this is commonly enough to stop for a while and think a few times before stating or doing anything.
3. Sustaining a balance diet and engaging in daily exercises may likewise affect the power to command emotions. These have been proven to have great effects on the way individuals feel.
