Let's talk about emotions

    Emotions are something we all exhibit throughout the day. We might be feeling sadness, love, anxiety, happiness, hate, depression, overwhelming joy, etc. Which emotions do you find yourself expressing more often than not? Are you generally happy or sad? Do you show a lot of love and affection?
     
    Generally, I try my best not to exert anything negative when it comes to emotions. If I feel sad or angry, then maybe I show subtle hints of those emotions, but generally I feel when one is angry and they show it, it can cause complications between those you interact with on a regular basis. That's why I try my best to generally stay in a positive mood whenever I'm around others!

    Hey Zach that's the right outlook! I gotta say I am the same way, at least IRL. I show more of my sensitive side online and let out my more sad emotions. Generally in real life though I am positive about everything because it makes me mood of everyone better that way.
     
    I show every emotion I have. I think it's important. I'm not an angry person, so I don't need to worry about damaging relationships with people I care about. I get angry like everyone else, but after a vent and a brood or something, I'm usually better. I'm not someone who is "generally" one emotion. I would like to say that I'm an always happy person, because I think it is important to be happy, but I'm not. I get into moods, I get into funks, I get into "please leave me be, world." feelings from time to time. They pass with time.
     
    I thought this was a thread about Emoticons. I'm disappointed.

    THE THING IS, I show a lot of emotion. It's just usually sarcasm or happiness. It takes a whole lot for me to snap at, or be rude to people irl. Like, if you want to piss me off, or make me actually speak my mind in a way that might hurt your feelings, it will take a whole lot of negative actions or words. I hate talking hatefully.

    I just think it's so much easier to wake up and decide to be in a GOOD mood. No matter what happens.
     
    It depends. I express my emotions differently due to having autism. I don't always know how to explain how I feel. If I do, it's in ways that are either childish or very awkward at times. I do show it more than I should, but that's usually if I'm angry, which probably my most overused emotion. Other than that, I do feel that I'm generally happy most of the time. I don't really have any reason to feel down or anything.
     
    lets not

    weh.. the emotion i express the most is anger, sadly. ;c i've got emotional disorders so it's a bit tough for me to not automatically react to unfavorable situations with irritation. i'm typically not open with my anger unless i feel comfortable expressing it around the person/people present; which isn't an often thing. my emotions are a really bad and reactive rollercoaster, but i've become pretty good at handling them.

    despite those issues, i usually have a happy disposition. i love to love, and i'm very affectionate towards those i care for. :)
     
    I'm generally in a very happy mood. I choose to look at the happier side of things and to try to let the bad stuff slide right off, and I'm getting better at it. It's something I recently started doing, since I was just tired at being angry at everything. I was annoyed by everyone, and the slightest thing could send me into a depression. It was tough, but I'm beginning to change my outlook. I still have my fits of anger and depression, but they don't consume me anymore, and I'm better of because of it.
     
    I am an angry and depressed little shit.

    But most of the day, as I'm sitting in front of my computer doing fuck all, my mood is just..."meh.". I'm apathetic and disinterested. Which is why a lot of the time I probably come off as a snarky asswipe. Sometimes I'll gather the will to be angry and something or to want to cry at a wall but not much else. Affection I struggle greatly with. 80% of the time it literally just does not occur in my mind to be affectionate. I'm bad at being loving and caring because it's something I just never picked up. Like the whole "it's harder to learn other languages as an adult than it is as a child" thing. Could also stem from mental disabilities I have. But that's getting off-topic so I'll cut it there.
     
    I used to be very angry a lot of the time. I managed to work my way out of that because it got me nowhere. I still get angry from time to time and I can get really heated like I used to at times, but I'm nowhere near that. Now I try to put a positive foot forward and show happiness and care toward others.

    Lately, my emotions have been kinda weird because I've doing a lot of things that are very nostalgic to me, which always puts me in a strange emotional state.
     
    I'd say I'm happy most of the time. "Content" is probably the word I'd use to describe my general feelings. Of course I get angry or annoyed from time to time, and I feel like I'm easily irritated, but those feelings tend to pass very quickly and I don't like dwelling on negative emotions.
     
    Most of the time I'm optimistic, happy, and keeping on having a bright attitude, even though sometimes I can be quite sad or mad when things aren't going well.
     
    I prefer not to show or discuss my emotions if I can help it. I prefer to have simple, straightforward conversations with people, and emotions...complicate things.

    As an example, if I'm angry or upset, people usually feel obliged to ask why, and the reality is that they honestly don't care and I really don't want to explain why when it's just going to lead to an awkward situation as neither of us will have any idea what to say, so the simple answer is not to let on what I'm feeling: that way other people can remain blissfully ignorant - or at least pretend to be so without feeling awkward - and I'm spared the difficulty of having to explain and the social guilt for feeling something that others don't really want to see or know about.

    That can apply for positive feelings as well as negative ones, so I tend to keep those bottled up as well...happiness isn't as contagious as people like to think, and contrary to popular belief misery usually just wants to be left alone.

    I'm not particularly comfortable displaying my emotions regardless of what they are, and really they're nobody's business but my own. Unless things become unbearable or I'm practically skipping with delight I like to put on an amicable and (hopefully) approachable front and not let my emotions get in the way of life in general. Emotions are a private inconvenience best kept private, at least for me.
     
    I'm usually the happy-go-luck optimistic one of my friend group. Even when things turn a wrong end, I usually stay the most positive I can be. However there are a lot of times when I do feel depressed or upset, but I don't usually let it get to me.
     
    my emotions run the gamut but I'm very infrequently (if ever) in a state of like crippling sadness or anything. and if I'm feeling like shit then I do a good job of hiding it from my friends -- not on purpose, simply because if I act more lively I feel better, and I don't think any of my friends would really enjoy being around a sadsack. it's not like I often have to really hide anything anyway.
     
    I'm usually in a pretty good mood. I've been thinking what really is the point of being in a bad mood, it doesn't change anything really? So I've been putting a lot of things out of mind.
     
    I either appear to be very happy or display no emotion at all. Also pretty sure I show a lot of love and affection, but I can't say for sure. And I can't say that I'm very good at showing other emotions.

    Not like that's a problem though.
