Sometimes when emotion is threatening to overcome me and I realise I have let my guard down and it is external on a small scale I try to breathe deep and centre and calm myself reminding myself all the time that I don't have to take on the feelings of others and that if I am to be there for them I must be practical and push down the intensity. On the whole this helps in a situation where I would be around emotion on a large scale I tend to encase myself as it is the only way I can cope and sometimes I have to make a total withdraw from the situation. Some people who know think it strange that I pull out of some situations when they see me as outgoing but don't really understand the intensity of emotion and how it can bring you downand make you feel like you are drowning. I am now with age getting much better at coping with it but with the help of some crystals who knows it could make a massive difference.
