| meep i feel too much. sometimes i think it can get in the way of a lot of things. i wish i was stoic |
| The problem might be in your diet. Patients who consume copious amounts of soy products usually experience such symptoms. It is not something irreversible, however. Just stay plant-free for a month or so, and surrender to your innate carnivorous instincts. You will start feeling much better almost immediately. You should consult with a medical expert for more information. |
| The question itself is impossible to answer, I doubt anyone on this forum knows you on a personal level so any answer would be made on assumptions. Being emotionally is a good thing compared to being stoic. Being stoic usually leads to anti social behaviors and locked up feelings that will explode all at once. |
| Internet strangers aren't going to have the answer to this kind of question. This is something you're going to have to look into yourself to understand why. A therapist can also help on the matter |
| Well, at some point in time, when you feel too much you will stop feeling anything, you just go numb :) |
IceySongstress said: by forcing you to keep all your negative and repressed emotions inside, not allowing you to communicate it. Stoicism is far from "repressing emotions" which is what most people think. It's all about understanding yourself and your own emotions. Normal: Dude insults you > your self-esteem is hurt > you get mad and frustrated > because your self-esteem is already low, so you try to protect what little you have > you get even more angry. Stoic: Dude insults you > your self-esteem is hurt > you get angry > ask yourself why you're angry > because your self-esteem is hurt > do their words diminish you as a person? > no > why > because only you can diminish yourself > you laugh at yourself for worrying. Stoicism is all about understanding that no outside force can shake you, but only your own mind. Not this "repressing" stereotype. |

| Don't suppress your emotions. I kept everything in for many years to try to prove to myself that I'm a real man and I ended up bawling my eyes out and almost doing something awful in March. It's good to let go of stuff once in a while. Don't worry about being an emotional person, we're human, we all feel emotions, it's natural. |

| Being an emotional person is not a necessarily a bad thing. Emotions can be a wonderful thing. They let you see the world (and of course, anime) in a unique way. Being able to laugh heartily at funny scenes, being able to feel excited at fight scenes and being able to feel sadness at tragic scenes makes your experience of watching the show that much more fulfilling. Of course too much of something is always bad, but you should not use other people to compare and define what "too much" is for yourself. "Too much" is the level at which your emotions interfere with your daily life to the point that you feel the desperate need to keep them suppressed. And I don't think that is the case for you right now. Being stoic for the sake of appearing cool and collected is nonsense. Putting up a front is counterproductive anyway unless you are naturally stoic. Even if you are stoic by nature, it makes you hard to read and you have trouble expressing yourself at some important times. |

| Best ending line in anime history = "My name is Saiki Kusuo. I am a psychic." |
| Each of us has different personalities. Some of us feel certain things too deeply, others less so. It's normal, so am I and many others, just like you. If you really want to stop going through these emotions, you can try not to worry about everything that happens around you, stop overthink too often and try to enjoy life through the little things that make you feel happy. Problems will always pass with time. |
| I have a policy of not commenting on things except via personal experience. I can only speak of my own experience in dealing with that. Through Bhuddism, I came to the realization that I was guilty of projecting myself onto other people. I realize this was a mistake, and that I was only hurting my own self in doing this. People are like a zodiac of animals. There are stubborn donkeys, greedy pigs, silly monkeys, wise owls, all sorts of animals. Just accept it. Then it will not bother you so much. Peace be to you. |
| idk about you but the closer a girl gets to looking like ronald mcdonald, the more aroused i become. CAV where can we cast our eyes to @PoruMairu who thinks of himself a member of the true church. Helion. |
p0ckyy said: meep i feel too much. sometimes i think it can get in the way of a lot of things. i wish i was stoic I don't know if that is your case, but overabundance of empathy can do that to you. It definitely gets in a way, but I don't think there is any "cure" for it. One way is to try and kill off your feelings and all that, but I'm not so sure how effective it is, in the end, even though it did help me a bit. Kind of like becoming desensitized to almost everything and your emotions can't even get a chance to interfere. It leads to peace, but it's pretty radical. Finding some kind of a balance would the best option, of course, but easier said than done. |
| well, you Are human, you feel things. maybe a little more than what you see as average but nothing's particularly wrong with that. i dont think you can just suddenly become emotionless, you can't just change it like eating a sandwhich, you can't just add ham for more emotions and remove it when you dont want it. im also pretty emotional and yeah its really annoying sometimes especially when it comes out when you dont want it but i can't do anything abt it so oh well! there'll probably moments where it just takes away a lot of your emotions and there are moments where it adds them, very much unpredictable so i think its better to just accept them |
| For me, first I figure why I feel a certain way. Then I ask if the reason justifies the emotion/the degree of that emotion. If not, I ignore the feeling. If the reason justifies the (degree) of the emotion, then I ask is there a course of action I should take. If there's nothing I can/should do, and the emotion is negative, I also ignore the feeling. |
