Regarding feelings i find it odd that feelings go kinda away when im tired. So much harder to trace a feeling in me.

I mean.. shouln`t i go to the other functions when im tired?

Or is it purely in stressed situasjons?

I mean.. if i watch a movie when im tired its less likely i get affected emotionally.

You're paying less attention when you're tired. It's an attention thing.

I generally experience the opposite, that I am far more easily emotionally effected when I am tired. But this might be because until recently I have generally suppressed feelings, and when I'm tired it becomes difficult to maintain this suppression.

I don't know, I'm more extreme in my emotions (be it sadness or aggressiveness) when I'm tired. That's why they say you should get a good night's sleep when you're down...

When I'm really tired and/or stressed, I don't care about anyone's feelings (and I usually shut down mine). I just want to get everything done.

It's usually when I'm not tired and not stressed that I am slightly more considerate of people's feelings.

If I'm tired, not much is going to work me up far as emotions are concerned, good, bad or otherwise. Speaking of which, I missed my nap today, which is probably why I'm rather...eh about baseball tonight.

It takes a lot of effort to stew in misery.

If you're tired, it's a lot harder to run around feeling perpetually angry and misunderstood.

Interesting. I, too, seem to feel considerably less depending on my level of tiredness.

Tiredness really only affects my attention. Hunger can affect my feelings, I'll get angry at the drop of a hat.

No, you're just not paying attention. I'm so tired right now, I'm not even entirely sure I know what I'm typing. :laugh:

Sorry for not being more active..

We need to divide things into:
Stressed
Low on energy
Tired

When im only sleepy i am very cool and calm. but if you add low on energy i become easily more emotional. But mostly in a negative way. angry and so on. Stiff face.

Stressed with aboundance of energy: i guess i move fast and talk out loud alot. less emotional. stiff face.

Stressed with no energy. easily depressed i guess. stiff face. messes with peoples head, kinda aggresive. Lissens to music with not so positive text. .Black sabbath - Paranoid etc.
