Are your emotions too extreme?

Post Reply New Topic

I've been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, so I guess I know when my emotions are too extreme. Usually it ranges from intense anger, sadness, or random spouts of happiness. It's never really been under control and I have had temper and mania problems before, but I still feel like I'm the only one...

Mine are also extreme. I'm Autistic and I am developing Bipolar, already had a few states of minor mania, plus for some reason I have the emotional state of a borderline person; overpowered, and change a few times a minute. Normally I can keep to away, but a week ago they took hold of me and spent 2 days unable to control my emotions.

They can be, at least the negative emotions I don't really get random boughts of happiness(unless I am on drugs/stoned or there are cute animals to interact with but never happens by itself)....for instance I can be feeling as ok as I get, something very frusterating/upsetting that relates to another ongoing sort of issue or frustration can happen and send me into a spiral of suicidal thinking which really sucks. I have aspergers, major depression, anxiety, PTSD and I guess avoidant PD traits but no Borderline PD.

I can't tell how extreme my emotions are, but in the past few months I've been having problems controlling emotions like anger, sadness, despair, envy, and hatred, and they have interfered with my ability to consistently engage in any activity, including work, causing me to be out on disability.

i have anger issues, dont know if it count as extreme, like most reactions to anythinng upseting or embarrasing or frustrating is violent thoughts and behaviour and ive gotten in trouble for assault before. getting angry lot of times can then lead to bein really happpy and angry at the same time, like im on top of the world and i can crush everythinng, or other times it can lead to severe depressionn and i have to hurt myself or something. i dont have bordrline as far as i know though, i have a bipolar diagnosis and psychosis diagnosis thogh.

Sometimes. I'm not always aware of them until they overwhelm me. When my grandfather died, I didn't realize I was sad until I started crying over some stupid little thing the next day. My guess is emotions just build up until they slap me upside the head to get attention.
