For all my life, I have been feeling things easily and sometimes I will suddenly feel angry and happy in places with many people and when i am alone i will also feel like that. I searched the internet and i wonder if it is Empathy or a mental disorder. Because my feelings always get mixed up and i get confused and i wish to stop it from happening.

Can you give your suggestions as to what I can do to supress it?

If it happens when your alone then i wouldnt think it would be empathy. more something thats coming from you . but no one can really say for sure as no one knows the circumstances of your daily life . age. physica health all these can be contributory factors

First and foremost i would always say see a doc talk over these feelings see what he says . too many people these days think being psychic is cool and jump to that conclusion . thats not to say you have a mental disorder either though . could just be the blues as an effect of soemthing going on around you . but i would always look to the logical for answers before the mystical just to be on the safe side . you never know it could be a physical ailment affecting you best to get it checked. original.gif

good luck

You haven't really given enough information to tell either way. The OP is very vague. Give us an example of what you're talking about.

We all feel things intensely at times. I am imagining you are quite young. I used to feel things very strongly in my teens and early twenties. As you get older, you gain more self control. I think you are just normal.

Younger people are able to "tune in" to emotional frequencies without them being aware sometimes. Just like how small kids will react to an environment with negative energy even if there is no outward manifestation of it among the people present. If you felt angry right before your parents began to yell, then this would be you picking up on that tension. If your home life is often volatile like this with negativity (my own was as a teen), then you will become sensitive to such vibes from other people. It is a self-defense mechanism.

At the same token, take care that you aren't repressing your own emotions. Sometimes emotional baggage can vent in strange ways and appear disconnected. For example, an incident may occur to which you seemingly have no reaction. Then days later you will get angry "out of blue" and seemingly for no reason when in fact that anger has roots in something that happened previously.

I would say your situation has a touch of both scenarios. No, you aren't crazy. But you should keep track of how often these things occur, what you are doing when they happen and what other people are doing around you also. Write it down then review it at a later date.

A doctor wouldn't hurt.
