"Turning" Emotions

I finally am posting this topic after thinking about it for a while.

I often am laughing with my friends, and all the sudden my best bud makes a remark and I blow up and start lecturing her for the whole lunch period. Or, I'm just on the computer, something comes over me, and I feel depressed over almost nothing. I start flaming at people and trying to tell people how unfair life is.

I don't know why.

Does anyone know maybe how I can overcome this? It happens a lot......like right now, I feel tired and upset. I don't want to eat or anything, nothing happened. But whatever you do, don't poke fun at this. 'Cause it's not a life, living sad half of the time.

Re: "Turning" Emotions

How often does this happen? Once a month? Every day?


I've taken a long hiatus, but I still visit sometimes. Give me some time to answer any messages you post on my projects!

About every day. Yup.


I'm not totally depressed or emo, I just feel really out of it sometimes.

If you really are 11, then this is part perfectly normal moodiness that comes with puberty.

Nothing to get worried about.

Re: "Turning" Emotions

Pretty easy to deal with. A decent cut from TV and computer will suffice. Read books, they bring your imagination to live. I recommend Terry Pratchet's Discworld or Douglas Adams' Trilogy.

Re: "Turning" Emotions

I think everyone goes through this, but at different stages.  When I was around seven I suddenly succumbed to severe paranoia, fear for the future, and depression.  But I got through that in one go, and my life became much more optimistic.  I think you are going through that, but much more slowly.

I hope you get through ok.

Re: "Turning" Emotions

Okay....I remember in 3rd grade I was scared of every house on Halloween. I'd start crying and screaming when I saw those decorations. I told myself in 4th grade I would not go trick-or-treating.
I'm still scared of PG-13 movies.
I listen to depressing songs.......
I'm afraid one day when I'm at a potluck, someone with poison my food.
I stay away from most people at school, because I don't trust them.
Bla bla bla........

I was always a timid person. XD Except I can get really mad or super hyper.

Re: "Turning" Emotions

Easiest way to cure it: go outside and get some fresh air. It works when I'm mad.

I like the fresh air too, but it's sloppy and not nice at all outside.

Re: "Turning" Emotions

It's normal.
I still haven't found a way to get over it, but I think it's mostly due to the fact that the problem that made me depressed won't jump in a ditch.

Re: "Turning" Emotions

-I think the best cure for this is a healthy does of thought.  Think about things that make you sad, and question why they make you sad.  A few times you may not come up with an answer, and your heart lightens a bit.  It worked for me.

-Being around people helps too.  Being silly around people makes this work better, but you need good self esteem.

-Also, try observing details to life, no matter how simple or trivial, and embrace it.  It gives you a very worldly feel, and inner peace.  Peace leads to calm, calm drives away anger.

These work for me, I hope it works for you.

Well if it's happening once a month, it's probably going to keep happening until you're 50.

I think about things a lot. Actually, my mom said I overanalyze things. And even when I ask myself,"Why does it make me upset?" I end up feeling worse.

I don't go around people much  hmm

I observe details to life-the hard, brutal, and true ones.
