I usually have very few emotions, and many times I don't even realize it myself and my emotions are automatically filtered out. I'm especially rational, for example, when people are surprised by cousin marriage, I'll say that humans are supposed to be animals and that civilization is all a later thing.
When people complain about being tired of walking, I think they're being melodramatic, what's the big deal about a little walking.
Someone told me someone had fallen down the stairs and died, and I just said "oh" back.
My body feels stiff and my mind is slow to respond.
How do I become an emotional person?
Hey my friend, I understand that you are bothered by your lack of emotions and want to become more humane. First of all, the fact that you are aware of this problem is already an important step, showing that you are aware of yourself and willing to change.
Emotion and reason complement each other, but if one side is too strong, it may affect the quality of life and relationships.
If you feel like you're being too rational and neglecting the emotional part of your life, try these ways to reconnect with your emotional world:
Take a few minutes each day to think back on the day's events and how you felt. It may be hard to recognize specific emotions at first, but don't give up.
This practice will help you slowly become more sensitive to your emotions. Find a way to express your emotions that works for you, such as journaling, drawing, or listening to music. These activities can help you get in touch with and release your inner emotions better.
Do exercises that connect your body, such as yoga, dancing or Tai Chi. These not only improve stiffness, but also help you perceive and express emotions better.
Participate in more social activities that require emotional interaction, such as talking to friends, joining interest groups, or volunteering. In these interactions, try to pay attention to others' expressions of emotion and respond to them.
This will help you learn to express emotions in different situations. If these methods are not very effective, consider getting help from a counselor.
They can provide personalized guidance to help you explore and deal with emotional disorders in depth.
Meditation and positive thinking exercises can help you focus on the present moment and increase your awareness of your inner states, making it easier to recognize and accept emotions.
Watch emotionally-charged books or movies that inspire empathy and emotional responses in yourself through the experiences of the characters. This is also a great way to develop emotional sensitivity.
Be patient and gentle with yourself during this process. Emotional exploration is gradual, don't get discouraged because you don't see changes right away.
Emotional recovery doesn't happen overnight, it takes consistent effort. I believe that with these methods, you can slowly break down emotional barriers and become more human. Good luck on your journey and finding balance. 💞
