Have you ever felt so overwhelmed by a situation that your normal reasoning processes are bypassed, and you react irrationally?

If so, you may have fallen victim to emotional hijacking.

Emotions are a natural and essential part of life. They signal how we feel about a particular situation or occurrence, so we can take the necessary action to deal with it. If not adequately addressed, emotions can become destructive and cause severe distress when they become overwhelming and take over how we act, say, and do.

When people’s emotions take over their logic, it is challenging to communicate effectively. From time to time, everyone has to deal with a person who loses control, whether it is an associate, a supervisor, a customer, or, indeed, themselves. Angry feelings are like a thief. They steal away the part of your brain that prevents you from saying things you regret later. Angry feelings sometimes become so intense that people become verbally abusive or physically violent.

If you’ve been emotionally distraught, you know it can be tough to think straight.
