I Am Ruled By My Emotions

I have strong emotions and would say I am more of an emotional person than an intellectual or physical.Sometimes I have experiences where I see myself objectively, I can watch myself interact with other people as if I were watching the...

Emotions are such weird things. I have NO control over them. Only over their display, mostly.

But really, I can't always reason why a particular emotion is there. It's just there. And I have to deal with it.

Much to my organized, analytically minded husbands chagrin, this is a fact.
I am ruled by my emotions
No need for rational, logical thinking
That does not interest me in the least

Empathy and benevolence are my "THANG"
Not...

Oh Boy, am I ever ruled by my emotions!!!  I'm not sure how *normal* I am, compaired to the average person.  I am not average, I have PTSD.  It's a total BITCH to have this disorder.   I do finally understand...

In the past few months my emotions have gone from becoming more stable than they have been in a long time....to complete chaos. My emotions, when they are in complete chaos rule me. I struggle to bring myself out of it and it sometimes...

I used to think that I just didn't feel things the same way other people do.  I used to think that I must be a very cold person.  I didn't have a lot of empathy & always felt very emotional people were weak. ...

now i know that you are suppose to love your mom but my mom is so annoying. I honestly think when i grow up ill grow up hating her and as much as i dont want too the things she does just make it closer and closer to the day when i will...

I am totally ruled by my emotions!  If I'm depressed and see a sad commercial on TV I start to cry.  I'm a big crier, but if I'm happy everybody around me knows it.  My emotions are who I am, and I'm not very good at...

I have been told "You are irrational" many times

Especially, when I am ruled by my emotions

Medically, human brain has two sides: Left & Right Hemispheres

Most people use the left side to think

But I...

I am glad that I feel love and caring and kindness and joy and compassion - I am thankful for these feelings and emotions, but I hate being so emotional instead of more level (and therefore, more sane!).

My moods are so up and down...

I have been giving very strong emotions. The strongest one I have is anger. I can fly off the handle so to speak. If I feel that I am right I will argue that until the other party gives in. I can scence peoples feelings too. And that...

BPD is like Bipolar on steroids.  You cycle between moods not just in days, but in hours.  Saturday I was manic.  Then depressive within an hour's span.  Yesterday I woke up fine, and then turned into ice by noon.  That was because...

while I Have a logical "over ride" button in my brain, usually I'm on emotional auto pilot. I know that if my lover for instance asked me to fly out to where she is and never look back I would run to her. but sense she has not asked I...

I saw this group was created and I had to laugh. I am def. ruled and controlled by my emotions. Sometimes, I hate it, but then other times it comes in handy.

I hate it because if I don't feel like doing something, I can't force...

Being ruled by my emotions makes one hell of a rollercoaster ride. Up down up down. I know I shouldn't let my emotions run me all the time but that's just the way I am. It's hell. I wish I could just turn off my feelings sometimes it...

I am ruled by my emotions more and more.
I can cry at the drop of a hat for no apparent reason.
I can fly off in a rage at the slightest thing.
I worry over something, so I stress and Bam! Tears.
I try so very hard to control my...

People tell me to get control, but I can't hide my emotions.  I don't freak out and cry in public, but if I'm in a bad mood, I can't fake happiness.  It's something that I've tried really hard to get under control.

I suppose the bad thing about being ruled by emotions is that sometimes you just have to struggle to get rational. Fortunately I can bring the rational side into the equation and take the long way out.
But the best thing is when all is...

I'm pretty sure the trigger happened when I became serious with my boyfriend. I don't seem him often though. I never have, but I am a very physically and emotionally needy person. I feel my emotions changing like like the wind in autumn...
