My first response to any external stimuli is usually emotional then in a very distant second is my rational response. There's a time and place for both but as an adult I still struggle with how I respond.
Like many of my behaviors, this goes back as far as I can remember. I'm working on trying to understand the 'why' and how I can, as and adult, become more emotionally mature.
My relationships have suffered because how I react in an emotional and immature manner which has alienated many people in my life. It bums me out but that is also something I need to accept and move on with what I have.
