What really gets me emotional is that so many of my problems in life could have been avoided if someone thought me basic emotional self management and care. The social expectation is that our parents teach us this but in way to many cases that just isn't happening. We have to start teaching basic psychology like this in our schools and make talking about our emotions a regular part of our day. Then of course is something that gets me more emotional is that this will likely not happen any time soon. Too much money hinges on manipulating people's emotions. Every ad is designed to manipulate your emotion and so is every speech by every politician. They don't want a population that can manage their emotions well. That would be terrible for profit.

honestly, that’s completely valid. It sucks feeling like you got cheated out of a healthy childhood because nobody taught you the skills on how to have one. but you got a remember that your life isn’t over just yet. You still have so much time to learn healthy coping skills, have fun with friends, make chocolate chip pancakes, and do whatever you want with your life. You still have so much time left
Emotional response steps: 👇🏻 - Enter a situation real or imaginary. - Evaluate the situation. - Help / hinder your goals. - Changes in feeling/thoughts/emotions. ---------------- Strategies: 👇🏻 - Avoid the situation. - Attend but not interact. - Shift attention & focus elsewhere. - reevaluate your thoughts about the situation. - Tempering is tricky cause you compress or hide your emotions, that'll lead to more negative feelings and health issues. - Better strategies: go in a long walk, deep breaths, call someone to talk to. ---------------- Important 👇🏻 - Knowing where your feelings are coming from is half of the battle. - Expressing negative emotions is healthy, compressing your emotions regularly is not, forcing a smile to deal with a one time annoyance is reasonable. - Don't be always happy nor let sadness take over, Find your own balance.

To clarify for anyone in the comments who want to say this is very pollyanne, I think the original poster is talking about things like a gratitude journal and savoring. University of Pennsylvania and UC Berkeley have some great resources for this, but to start off: Write down 3 good things that happened today. Try to make then as detailed as possible, and try not to repeat the same thing (like, don't just say "I woke up." Say "I woke up after a restful sleep" or "I woke up and had a great conversation with my mom"). And try to savor positive experiences. We can think of savoring food, like really enjoying each bite, the texture of the food, the smell, the way it looks, etc. The world can be dark at times. Darkness can feel endless, so appreciating the tiny glimmers of light can make life just a little bit brighter.

One time when I was in a really dark place I went to see a therapist. They tried to prescribe me antidepressants but I told them no because I feel like even though it sucks depression and other negative emotions are a part of life, take the good with the bad. He was surprised but we went on talking and keep at it every few months or as I need to. I know everyone's different emotionally but I think a lot of the time you just need someone to talk to. EDIT: I wanted to share my experience with depression, this worked for me but is in NO WAY a solution for everyone. Medication is important and has saved millions of lives, I'm not against using it at all. In no way am I expert in psychology or mental health. If your doctor recommends medication you should really consider taking it.

Depression and being sad are two very different things. One is a mental illness which needs to be treated as such. I agree we do need to normalize sitting in and feeling the emotions we experience, good or bad. But again, it’s a mental illness and not simply just an emotion. To those reading this, if your doctor recommends antidepressants, please consider it. Mine saved my life, literally.
I recently started living life with a mentally of “If i cant change it, theres is no point of putting energy towards it” -Dont deal with things that you can’t effect (theres no point in it) And to also never make something bigger then what it is I feel doing this has help me keep my emotions together and react more calmly and coordinated to anything
Great as always! I so appreciate the subtle but important mention of emotional responses being caused by both real AND imagined situations! People often like to undermine the emotional reactions of others for "fake" scenarios, which is just tiring and belittling to those feeling the emotion, such as over thinkers like myself, which does not help calm us down
Wow, so helpful! My biggest takeaway is that emotions are not good or bad, they are helpful or unhelpful. That really makes me see clearer when I am overreacting.

This is such a necessary topic and helpful tool for everyone, especially in the modern world that every emotional expression of us could be judged imprecisely and then lead to more unintended consequences. As always, many thanks to TED-ed team for your meaningful works.
I recently went through a 3 month rehab program for learning how to deal with difficult thoughts and emotions when dealing with chronic (physical) pain, through group sessions in mindfulness techniques and individual therapy. The professional team also provided us with a lot of useful information of how chronic pain works and why our brains are wired to focus on the negative. One of the biggest take aways I had was that according to some studies, around 80 percent of all of our thoughts are negative in some way. 80 percent! When I heard that, I felt such a relief. I'm not the only one with a brain that's constantly risk assessing in every situation. When I have negative thoughts, I remind myself of that number. Sometimes it can be a relief to know that we are wired in a certain way for survival, and there is nothing wrong with you. And to affirm that thinking in a more positive way is hard work! Thank you for reading this far and I hope you have a nice day :)
These techniques are under the purview of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which is great for most people, and can be helpful. There is a lot of research to support these techniques. But, it's important to note that these techniques may not always work for everyone all the time. So if you try them and they don't work, it doesn't mean there is anything wrong with you. This is a great first step for most people, but there are other techniques out there if this doesn't work.
Even though I’m still young I have learned many lessons concerning emotional regulation. I’ve learned that it’s okay to feel negative emotions and if I don’t accept them and feel them then it’ll only make me feel worse.

Been learning that myself - sure I try look on the “bright side” but a strategy I’m learning in counselling is to give myself time to feel and not block out negative emotions in tough times. Like journaling, venting to friends who’re available or even just sitting there with them for a little while.
I’ve spent years trying to fix my emotions and anxiety attacks since my breakup. While I’ve gotten better at it I still struggle with it and this video helps.
This feels like good advice. I have a hard time trying to regulate my emotions with everything else going in my life so this is really helpful.
how come ted ed every time comes up with such videos when i need them the most! bravo guys
Experiencing and allowing oneself to experience a range of emotions is essential to mental health. What to watch out for is, when a negative emotional response keeps popping up after similar external triggers. It could indicate an underlying trauma that needs resolving.
Thanks a lot Ted-Ed for bringing up this issue! The current generation is becoming so addicted to social media, things which give instant gratification, and all the materialistic stuff and they forget to care about their mental health and handle their emotions, which I'd say is a very needed skill these days. This world could become a real good place to live in and interact if everyone becomes keen on paying attention to their mental health. So If you're reading this, it begins with you!! Go out there, get out of your comfort zone, accomplish, learn, study, enjoy, read, eat health, sleep well and most importantly love yourself. You can do it! I wish everyone an awesome life ahead lesgoooooo

Especially if an individual is naturally a very emotional person, or just undiagnosed and not being medically treated and not working with a adhd specific therapist/ adhd life coach. Or if medication doesn't work for them or they just can't afford either meds or both meds and a adhd coach/ therapist.

This is what I actually needed. I'm going through a lot right now. I just wanted to hear something like this. Less than a year ago I didn't even have the hint about how hard life can be. Now here I am finding every possible thing that can make me feel better; or show a ray of hope. One moment I feel OK the other I collapse again. If this is what life is going to be then that's something to think about.
Thank you for the reminder that life isn't about avoiding misery or seeking happiness! It reminds me of a forum that distinguished between hedonism, moralism, relativism, and relationalism as centers of family values.
I meditate for about 10~20 minutes daily for a year, and I realized that it helps a lot now that my body is conditioned to 'let go' whenever there's a need to.

I feel like always since I've been a little kid I've been "suppressing" my emotions. And I guess it's somehow become the normal for me, because all the people around me tell me that I lack emotions. I personally consider it as a good trait as it allows me to sort of "select" which emotions I want to express. It also helps me mitigate feelings like envy. A thing I always enjoy however, is being in the present, just looking around yourself, noticing the details and realizing that you will never be in the same situation again gives you a lot more appreciation for the smaller things, simply because you know that they won't be there your entire life.
@benurm2390

Hmm, I think you suppressing your emotions may have been caused by something(s) that happened in your life, maybe some traumatic experiences. Maybe you should talk with a therapist about it. Envy I think means wanting something someone else has that you don't have the right to, in that case you should just accept the reality you can't change and embrace what you can in a fair way, not supress emotions. And some natural emotions are really good, you should definitely review that.
I always talking to myself (especially out loud) when i felt overwhelmed or upset to reevaluate my emotions. It’s just like talking to a friend that is always listen to you without judging you first. And in the same time, i hear what i said and it’s like i also listen to someone problems, and i can sometimes giving myself an advice or even a solution.

I wish the ed system could teach us how to regulate emotions in school or somewhere formally at least as part of the growing up experience. Most parents don't, my parents have very volatile emotional cycles which I still can't deal with them peacefully at age 35. Just sharing my experience of how to keep balance after years of self learning from personal trial & fails, hope it'd be helpful: I used to get fixated on thoughts just kept circling in my mind & hard to control the emotions comes along with them. Then I learned to take long walks + sit alone quietly to meditate using reflection & critical thinking to breakdown those thought & emotions logically. Don't let the wild emotions take over, might lead to bad decisions that could cause severe consequences in life. Use conscious & rationality to get a hold of it & bend it towards your own advantage. It's mostly the subconscious that's running unchecked, gotta use your consciousness to put it back to its place in order to keep the mind balanced. Reflection: 1. Imagine/replay the things/experiences that bring those occupying emotions in your mind, over & over if possible until you're so used to it & become comfortable enough. Even though it's a painful frustrating process at first, could take hours, but try to endure & live through it, this torturing process helps you achieve conscious awareness of which part is causing what emotions in you, it's also a self learning & identifying experience. Once you're used to the process in meditation, it'll become a natural flow to self analyze the mind. I used to take hours long walk or sit like a monk to go through this when it first started, now I can do it anywhere anytime to run a check on my mind if I'm consciously aware of some unwanted thoughts/emotions. 2. dig & think deeper, ask yourself why it's triggering such emotion, find the root & cause of it. Mostly it's past experience related, then pull that memory up & replay it, repeat step 1. It's a looping long process, very tiring, might wanna get a protein shake or energy bar during the meditation. Brain consumes lots of power. I also used INDICA eatables gummy/mint to help sleep better at night after long walk/meditation during the day. One effect I really like is after it kicks in, that's when the mouth is dry & stomach feels hungry & the body feels sinking, but the mind now goes super fast & so much better at deep thinking, now there is a 30 mins window to begin a realm of problem solving & life question answering. My logical thinking process was so fast I actually couldn't trace back my thoughts, it's kinda amazing! I used it for 6 mths, figured out all the life stuff. But I wouldn't recommend long term use, I do feel it lowered my IQ a bit, but the tradeoff was worth it. There will be sleeplessness after stop using, but the good sleep & IQ recover after a few months of healthy lifestyle. Good luck :)

i think we need to talk more about how most times there isnt a battle between being happy, sad or angry. Half of our lifes are probably spent feeling nothing- NEUTRAL.
When I am, for example, upset, I would type it all out as if I'm sending it to a friend. Then I would reread it again and a lot of the times, the things I feel upset about are miniscule in comparison to the things I feel happy about and that helps reassure myself that whatever I am upset with isn't that big of a deal. This isn't me, ignoring the negative feelings I felt but rather embracing it and realize how our brain tends to magnify and upscale the negative situations we go through when in reality, it plays such a small role. It's normal, of course, to feel negative from time to time but remember that just like the good things that happen to us, the bad things are also temporary
"Learning to notice your emotions and reflect where they are coming from is half the battle" Note for future self if I ever revisit this
This really inspired me - there's no good or bad emotions, only helpful or unhelpful emotions. To an extent, i have the power to judge what emotions are helpful without being guilty about being emotionally vulnerable
I'm not the best at controlling my emotions but the times I do manage to keep cool, I found that being able to detach and see it from the 3rd person helped.

Love Ted Ed...great content 👍
It's never too late to learn and implement emotional intelligence. The goal is to learn from what we didn't receive in our childhood and apply it to our everyday lives. It will be challenging, but it's worth it. When you start a family, teach them early enough so that your children will learn to regulate their emotions while young. Acknowledgment leads to improvement.

A good approach, mate. Our emotions can be our enemy at times, this is why it is good to analyse our feelings and get a better understanding of them. Don't forget that feelings are rooted in the brain, they are the output of the electro-chemical flashes in the brain. As long as you have volition, you can undermine negative feelings and focus on the healthy ones.
Thank you. I needed this today.
Thank you for everything ☺️
Thank you Ted-Ed, your thoughtfulness on this topic is very touching ;)
whenever I feel that my emotions are out of control, I just imagine a spotlight, and the emotion i am feeling right now is in the spotlight as a 3d block, and i would imagine to push that away out of the spotlight, so it's in the shadowed corners along with the another blocks-of-emotions, and it actually works for me.
I love how Ted Ed always manage to create videos when I need to learn it
What a meaningful video! The topic is so necessary for everyone. The message that emotions are not good or bad is impressive😊
Really love these current psychology -related videos

Summary 1. It is possible to manage your emotions Ways : Deep breathing exercises (meditation) Re evaluating situation (personal tip focus on why more than what) Talk to someone in your support 2. Its OK to feel sad, angry at times dont run from them accept them but dont let them take over yourself and be hopefull that although things are not well now your emotions are not well now but things will get better with time, have some COURAGE and have LONG TERM THINKING.

Yes it is so okay to feel sad 🥺
I've always thought that with emotions it is ideal to sit somewhere in the middle most of the time. And then adjust, up or down, depending on the situation. It works for me. It also helps if you come up with a reason of why good or bad things occur and why the are important to balance in the world. Just a thought. Take care.
Ok but the movement at 4:25 is so calming
For me, understanding my emotions and where they come from is the most important part. Avoiding them sounds unhealthy tbh And the animations are so sick!

Usually your sadness or anger is justified, and you have every right to feel the way you do. It only becomes a problem when mismanagement of your emotions causes additional problems which could have been avoided. Obvious examples of mismanagement include, drug abuse, alienating friends or family, or openly violent behavior.
Whenever I feel overwhelmed with emotions sadness, anger, happiness , I remind myself that life is temporary and NONE OF THIS MATTERS IN THE END !.. we are just random souls carrying energy of this universe and are meant to join a bigger cleaner purer source of energy when we die so we don't have to come back to this illusion (maya) of a life we live with ups and downs of emotions aka moksha .. So truly none of this matters but still we get to live this life on this earth might as well make use of it and serve our intentions of helping other souls attain their moksha in whatever way we can.. my unwise heart/mind craves richness, luxury, fame , love.. I will chase this for sure because I want to feel what it feels like to be my higher self who is living her dream life. but even if I dont achieve it its ok and its ok even when I achieve it .. Because none of this actually matters..
The animation is insane 😍
im allways happy. Thanks for the video tho. Great visuals making you guys did
As someone who’s more focused on logic emotions have always been a weak point for me. But despite this natural weakness I’ve tried my best to cultivate better emotional awareness. Anyone can, even if they don’t think so.
Wow I so needed this!
Thank you, TED!
Emotional intelligence is the door to an almost infinite number of beautiful possibilities. You can find one such possibility in the poem "Reason and Passion" by Khalil Gibran.
I was never very emotional until after my wife died and I realized that I was alone. Now, I cry when I hear a song from my life , any song that has emotional memories.
Thank you for the advice!
really good videos you people make!
"No emotion is inherently good or bad. They´re either helpful or unhelpful, depending on the situation"
If you're sad you should 1) acknowledge your sadness; 2) accept it and don't try to force anything, ever; 3) communicate clearly and sincerely to closed ones how you feel (not colleagues, not random people - unless in a bar at night in front of a glass of whiskey - but people close to you which you can reasonably expect can and will listen); 4) interrogate yourself about the apparent reasons of your sadness; 5) wonder if there are deeper reasons, or if the the apparent reasons are the consequences of something more structural; 6) don't intellectualize away your sadness, don't find artifact explanations to compress and hide your feelings; rather, look for the reasons of the sadness you feel and you should neither deny nor try to control. In the end, most likely, your sadness (if not the result of a recent, clear accident or grief) will be linked to three major reasons: 1) loneliness - 2) fear of change - 3) living under neoliberal globalized capitalism. In all three cases, what you need is not "hope of better times" but action. Not only because without action you won't see changes; but because action will empower and subjectivize yourself in the face of adversity and redefine the situation not just as a source of pain but as a problem to be solved. [the exact same can be said replacing the word 'sad' and 'sadness' with 'angry' and 'anger'. Don't waste or hide your anger, it will kill you; channel it toward action.]

Loved it ... thankyou !!
There is absolutely no need to manage your emotions , my experience is that just let it all build up and then have a violent emotional outburst . Works eveytime
Most of us only know to fight, flight, or freeze as a response to big and uncomfortable emotions. But there's dozens of other skills (some mentioned in this video) that help better in the long-term. Look up Therapy In A Nutshell. There's a playlist that tries to teach emotion processing skills.
I consider myself in general to be good at regulating my emotions, but quite sensitive and vulnerable to others deregulating them. Even though I feel balanced and quite positive at a particular time, when exposed to a negative talk , it becomes difficult for me to recalibrate and I feel most of my efforts has been wasted away😢 I am aware we cannot push away similar people or situations all the time and that we do not live in an aquarium so have been trying to find my second level, first level being able to balance my emotions internally, second trying to minimize the outside effects and their intervention to my emotions, difficult task but I am trying, there's no other choice if we'd like to survive dudes! do you think someone should have taught us earlier how to care less?😅
The animation of the head patting is too cute 🥰
Manage your emotions is thick and clumsy. Consider your mood and affect your attitude, don’t become emotionally flat, let the water flow. A lot of the current discussion on emotion is going to cause schizophrenia either the emotional flatness or the turbulence, peace obviously isn’t a wail but it isn’t silence either it’s just a hum that easily becomes white noise. Mood and attitude effect behaviour more, thoughts and emotions are not behaviours and I feel the current discussion forgets this in its attempt to diagnose and guide the masses.
Ted ed animations are on their own God tier +1
I'm horrible at controlling my emotions, I get triggered easily over small things. Even if it's not a big deal, I end up hurting my parents again because I cannot listen. I want to get better and be able to control my emotions, right now it's really hard.
"Now that doesn't mean let sadness or anger take over-" *Sadness and Anger from Inside Out fighting over the control panel*
“every emotion is helpful or unhelpful. it depends on situation. you should find own balance of your emotions you MUST NOT be happy or pleased every time” these words i liked from video💥
Tried watching this video on mute and without context... A hilarious experience. Always love to see your videos!
The guy who wrote the concept for this video deserves a raise!
The natural man is the enemie of peace. To be above emotion is to be above nature and intern generate peace.
Personally, I've noticed that a lot of my emotional responses are products of habituated responses. That is, something makes me feel some type of way... probably not strongly, but I let myself feel that way. Someone annoys me, and I let myself be annoyed. I think about how annoying they are. The next time it happens, I get a little more annoyed, and a little more annoyed, and eventually something that once barely bothered me causes an intense emotional response. I think a huge amount of sway over our thoughts and emotions comes from what sorts of thoughts and emotional responses we habituate ourselves to having, and while we have considerable power to shape these responses when they're new, the more times we go through them, the more intense the response, the harder it is to exert meaningful influence.
the one thing that stayed in my mind is the fact that he said emotions arent good or bad, its either useful or useless, depending upon the situation..!!!!!!!!!!!!! THATS SO TRUE, LIKE, SOOOOOOOOOOO TRUEEEEEE but the problem is how to change those emotions? how to change depending upon the situation? is it fake it till u make it? really interesting though❤
