There are those who are moved by nothing and then there are those who seem to be empty and do not react to any situation. Some people are as cold as the deepest part of the Arctic Ocean. On the other hand, others are as sensitive as a soap bubble, so emotional that any event awakens in them an overflowing feeling. The truth is that there is so much variability in feeling and expressing emotions that the subject is fascinating. The reason why we are and react in one way or another in emotional matters lies in very complex variables. There are purely neurological causes, but there is also another dimension, that of "life history". We are all the result of a context, a past and a sociocultural scenario that shapes us.

In this sense, an example would be growing up in a war context, without our parents, and on the other hand, growing up in a scenario of comfort, enriching affections and with basic needs covered. There are circumstances that shape the brain in many ways, which determines the way we experience our emotions. Let's delve deeper into this very revealing and interesting topic. Human beings as well as animals. We all experience emotions, those psychophysiological reaction patterns that drive our behavior and decisions and facilitate our adaptation. Thus, something that needs to be clarified is that there are no emotionless people, but there are individuals defined by a more limited emotional register.

 The reason why each of us is endowed with this type of biological activations is because we have an emotional brain. Emotions are the result of a very complex network of structures located in the limbic system. Regions, such as the amygdala, the hippocampus or the limbic cortex, orchestrate, activate and modulate every reaction, feeling and emotional experience. In essence, all of us who inhabit this planet have the wonderful gift of being happy, scared, surprised, sad or disgusted, because we have a brain that makes it possible. A striking example of emotional coldness is found in people with alexithymia. Recall that this characteristic defines a condition in which a person is unable to identify or describe his or her own emotions.

 Well, on the opposite side of the alexithymic, would be the highly sensitive person. That is, we refer to that profile that reacts to the environment and sensory stimuli in an intense and very different way from neurotypicals. These are men and women who have greater empathy and deeper emotional experiences. Again, the cause of this trait is in the brain. We are all the result of a life history, a past, an upbringing and specific circumstances. Each experience marks us, shapes us and urges us to react to each event through certain emotional patterns. These dynamics can make us more susceptible to stress and also much more emotionally reactive. There will be those who react with anger to any difficulty.

 In conclusion, others will be more anxious and some will show a certain emotional coldness. We cannot ignore the fact that the abuse suffered in childhood is another factor capable of completely altering psychoemotional development. Therefore, if we ask ourselves why some people are more emotional than others in certain situations, we must take into account personal history, social context and early life experiences. Beyond neurological particularities and life histories, there is the present; what is conditioning us here and now. Personal and interpersonal variability at the emotional level may be due to present challenges. It has happened to all of us at some time or another that we feel more sensitive, fickle and show our emotions on the surface.

Do you get more emotional than others?

It's true that what occurs in the past plays a big role on how we react or feel in certain issues or situation in the present. I've been through a lot in the pass and it made me more sensitive to other peoples feelings . Made me more understanding of their behavior and actions rather than judging or accuse them unappropriately.

Undoubtedly, the experiences in our lives over time leave us learning and help us understand what we could not before. It is part of what we call maturing, and we become more empathetic and sensitive to our fellow human beings.

I will honestly say that I am a sensitive type of person. I easily get emotional especially when I felt myself drawn to something or someone. There are times that I just let my eyes filled with tears when I can't handle the situation/s anymore.

Something similar used to happen to me when I lost control of my emotions I couldn't help letting the tears come out, after some therapies with the psychologist I managed to control that. Greetings.

I'm actually emotional person and I find it difficult to handle it when I am too attached to a person.

I understand you perfectly my friend, the same thing has happened to me for a long time, and although I have tried to change that aspect of me. And in fact I had made progress, 8 months ago I lost my father and that event turned my emotions into chaos.
