| I treat my emotions like intrusive little brats, metaphorically speaking ... Grief: "WAAAAH!! !" Me: "What now?" Grief: "Someone called me a doo-doo head!" Me: "Well, quit complaining and go tell Anger!" Anger: "*&^%$#@!" Me: "Hello, anger; what's up?" Anger: "*&$^&#^&* idiot! Stupi... |

| I'm exactly the same way, but I wait until I'm alone to deal with the overwhelm since yeah, I don't like others knowing how emotional I can get. I used to just cry all the time though, and publicly so maybe that's why I just learned to keep whatever I feel to myself since the embarrassment used to ... |

| I frequently do this. I start laughing a lot without a real reason, wherever. The worst is when I do it in school: some teachers even reprove me for that.

| I was with depression, anxiety and depression back in August. I was placed on effexor. I was doing fine until my dosage was increased over time. I was someone who was hardly ever angry, and when I was angry it was just usually at family. Instead of getting angry at people I would get depressed. Now ... |
