I get this. All of my emotions are dialed up to the max level and especially when it’s a negative emotion I start ruminating on everything negative that I feel like got me to that moment. My therapist says like, at least for me I can’t speak for all, it’s from being emotionally neglected and having to suppress my own emotional reactions to things for a long time while I was growing up. Like if you bottle it all up, any release will be more pressurized.
