Why do we suppress negative emotions?

Suppressing negative emotions as an adult can be the result of a certain coping mechanism one has adopted as a child. They may have grown up in families that did not encourage children to speak out their true feelings or disagree with their parents because it was seen as a challenge to authority in the family. Such children grew up as adult may always want to keep their emotions to themselves because they don't feel safe to share or they feel they won't be liked if they let their true emotions show. Not only unhealthy family dynamics can cause this, teachers, religious figures who did not show empathetic response when a child was expressing their true emotions can send a powerful message causing the child to shut down and push away their emotions. Adults who were hurt as children may feel uncomfortable facing their true emotions and may not even know how they really feel because they have become very good at suppressing them. However one cannot deal with emotions just by suppressing them without acknowledging and processing them. That's why people can get triggered emotionally just out of seemingly small things because there are bigger issues and emotions not resolved beneath all that.


How can emotions affect a person physically?

As far as negative emotions go, they can make a person lose all appetite (be completely grossed out by the thought of eating). People may over or under sleep, and are more likely to over-exercise if they are stressed. Oddly enough, hormonal changes caused by stress can make a person smell worse. Some people may experience aches and pains. Blood pressure may also be affected.


Can emotions last forever?

What emotion do people have?

There is a huge list of human emotions that we are capable of experiencing. However often times we only experience a very limited number of emotions. It is always the same few ; happiness, anger, love, confidence, anxiety, stress, relaxed. Ask people what emotions do they experience in a week and they'll invariably say those common emotions. The more type of emotions we feel, the more colorful our life experience will be. It is not that we can't experience a wide array of emotions, rather it is because we often label different emotions into a common group like happy or sad that we forget to experience that emotion for what it is.
