Too emotional
I'm struggling to handle my emotions in my relationship. I often feel sad for no apparent reason, and even small things affect my mental health. Unfortunately, this is also impacting my partner's mood. I don't understand why I'm behaving this way. Could you please help me overcome this? Also, can you suggest some meditations?

Hi
Thanks for reaching out. You are not able to have control over your emotions. You feel upset for no reason. Based on what you have mentioned it sounds like something is bothering you. Consult a psychologist and talk about what is bothering you. Consult a psychiatrist for guidance on medication..How long has it been since you feel you have no control over your emotions. Therapy is a warm and comfortable space to talk about thoughts and feelings that are bottled up inside. Talking to a psychologist will help you feel better.
Consult a psychiatrist for medication and consult a psychologist for counselling sessions..

It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed by emotions, especially when they start affecting your relationship. You might be experiencing emotional distress due to underlying factors such as unresolved past experiences, stress, or even certain thought patterns that intensify your reactions.
Counseling can help you explore these emotions, identify triggers, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Through therapy, you can gain better emotional regulation skills, improve communication with your partner, and work towards a more balanced mindset.
I would recommend seeking professional counseling to understand the root of these feelings and find effective ways to manage them. You’re not alone in this, and with the right guidance, you can navigate these challenges more effectively. Let me know if you’d like to schedule a session.

It takes a lot of courage to admit that you’re struggling with your emotions in a relationship, especially when it’s also affecting someone you care about deeply. What you’re describing sounds like emotional dysregulation, which can happen when our inner emotional world feels too intense or unpredictable. Sometimes, we carry unresolved stress, unmet needs, or even past emotional patterns that resurface in close relationships. This isn’t your fault—but it is a signal that your emotions need acknowledgment, gentle care, and structured management. Your sadness and sensitivity are valid, but they don’t have to control your life or your connection with your partner.
To regain emotional balance, start by building emotional awareness through daily check-ins: ask yourself “What am I feeling?” and “What triggered this?” without judgment. Begin practicing CBT-based journaling, where you write down a situation, your thoughts, emotions, and alternative ways to see it. For emotional grounding, I recommend the following meditations:
1. Loving-Kindness Meditation – to soften inner criticism and improve self-compassion.
2. Body Scan Meditation – to reconnect with your body and release held tension.
3. RAIN Technique (Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Nurture) – to sit with emotions instead of reacting.
You deserve peace in your heart and your relationship. Take therapy, and you can connect with me on nine two six six seven two six zero six five.

Hi
It is natural to feel this way when we are in a relationship. Do you feel this way in all your interpersonal relationships or with a particular person. ?
Normally we feel sad when we expect certain things from a person that person hasn’t been able to fulfil those goals. When we try to communicate our sadness, we are unable to deliver our emotions the way we want to.
Similar thoughts and feelings can also occur when we compare our relationship with other( effect of social media)
Come in to cope with the helplessness.

Happy to help.

Hi,
Struggling to manage your emotions in a relationship can be challenging, and it's important to recognise that these feelings often have deeper roots. It could be helpful to explore your emotions through self-reflection or talk therapy, as understanding the underlying causes can lead to better emotional regulation. Keeping a journal might help you identify triggers that affect your mood. Practicing mindfulness meditation can also be beneficial in grounding yourself; try incorporating techniques such as deep breathing or body scans to help you stay present. Guided meditation apps like Headspace or Calm offer specific sessions focused on emotional balance. Additionally, consider discussing your feelings with your partner; open communication can foster understanding and support, alleviating some of the stress in your relationship.
