Emotional overload
Emotional overload – is the feeling of being overwhelmed by extreme or intense emotions. Often this emotional upheaval can cause challenges in daily life, such as problems performing tasks or a reduced ability to think and act rationally. When your emotions become hard to manage and interfere with your day, you may be experiencing emotional overload. Your emotions can indicate when you’re under too much stress. For example, feeling irritable or overwhelmingly fearful can be signs of stress.
Stress, defined as emotional tension or mental strain, is a common feeling for many people.
Too much stress can produce both physical and emotional symptoms.
