How does being ambivalent impact us?
The emotions that we often express tend to have a direct impact on us, especially if they are contradictory emotions towards the same element.
Human beings, having this capacity to think and reflect, make us ambivalent in our emotions, that is to say, we can feel different emotions at the same time towards the same element.
A clear example of ambivalence is that we can love and hate the same person at the same time, another case of ambivalence is that when we feel admiration and disappointment for the same person, t in conclusion without having to set the ambivalent to another person, we can even get to simply assent to different feelings at the same time as is the case when we feel sadness and joy at the same time.
Being able to go from one extreme to the other in such a short time can even be worrying for any of us, well those who have felt this form of emotions know what I am talking about, even some of us who worry about this form of emotional ambivalence think that the sufferer may have a bipolar emotional disorder.
For those who have ever experienced it, let me tell you that it is not a serious problem, it is not even a bipolar emotional disorder, they are simply going through a type of emotional feeling called effective ambivalence, this should be considered by us as something as normal as any other type of feeling that we go through in our lives.
It is important for us to know that effective ambivalence is a feeling whose emotion reflects a complex emotional state, since it is not easy to assume that we feel two opposite feelings towards something at the same time, however feelings that are composed of ambivalence such as conflicting opinions and ideas are emotional events that can easily intertwine and accompany effective ambivalence.
If we feel and act under the parameters of effective ambivalence, at first we should not worry about it, but we should pay enough attention in case it is very common. We must be clear that life is linear and constant in the way we perceive things, one day we feel one way and another day another, so that a single way of feeling and acting can be a cause for concern.
Indecision in key moments of our life can even cause us discomfort because we want to be less ambivalent, however we must simply be patient because the feeling of a single decision will come at any time, as I said before, life is a box of surprises and we will always feel and act differently.
Hello @sandracarrascal!
Interesting information that you present us friend, the truth is I had not heard of the term, I related it more with bipolarity, however, something very true is that sometimes we experience emotions that we did not believe capable of feeling, as you say life is a box of surprises and everything depends on the circumstances at a given time and how we react. Thanks for sharing, greetings!
Very interesting article friend @sandracarrascal, I think that many people have such extreme ambivalences that they seem to have some kind of dissociative disorder, but the truth of the matter is that all of us in one way or another can affect others by not knowing how to properly manage our ambivalent emotions, Thank you very much for making us reflect on this particular issue.
Greetings!!
Hola amiga @sandracarrascal
I have never stopped to think about this point, and how it can affect the way we live and feel.
I think the human being is very complex, from whichever point of view we look at it.
Dealing with people who in some way are extremists in this aspect I think it must be quite difficult.
Hello friend @josevas217.These are very important issues that we should handle, many see the changes of emotions as bipolarity as I explain but it is not so, it is not a disease we must be patient, because these cases are very common, it is important for us to know that effective ambivalence is a feeling whose emotion reflects a complex emotional state and that we must treat with great patience is not a disease are emotional states, Greetings and thanks for your support.
Hello friend, as reflective beings that we are sometimes we become very complex, I know people who show affective ambivalence in many situations, certainly they are people without any kind of disorders, I just see that sometimes they need more time to make a decision, since that confrontation of feelings sometimes puts them in conflict.
Hello @ sandracarrascal
Good point, in the society we live being ambivalent is normal, I say it this way, because there are no borders in the experiential, and people tend to travel from one place to another, bringing into their lives different forms or social experiences, which makes them ambivalent.
Best regards, good luck.
Saludoas friend @sandracarrascal, very interesting topic you share, in particular I had not heard that ambivalent, feel emotions for something and in an instant change the emotion of that same something, seeing it so often happens a lot that we feel a good desire for a person and at the same time feel the opposite.
Hello friend @carlir. Exactly are very important issues to know, as many have not heard ambivalent, many people we judge others calling them bipolar but it is simply that they are going through a type of emotional feeling called effective ambivalence, this should be considered by us as something so normal, that we must handle in our daily lives, it is relevant these changes emocionas and to us it happens very often that suddenly we are happy and go to a state of sadness.
Greetings and thanks for your support
This is the human psychology we can say, we can love and hate at the same time.
In this society we live with expectations. We cannot fulfill each and everyone expections we need to sacrifice any one. This society is full of ambivalent people.
We cannot judge any person mind in few seconds , because human being are very complex.
