Trained Insensitivity?

Ever since I can remember I've been EXTREMELY emotional. No, not just around that time of the month, but always. I used to attribute it to my being a Pisces but now I think it might be something more than that. Is there a way that I can train myself to not be so emotional? If so, how would I go about it?
Answer:
Please don't train yourself not to be emotional.

Learn how to cope with what is triggering your emotions. There is a reason you are extremely emotional. Talk to your doctor, and explain you don't enjoy being emotional. Don't buy into medication only, get some counselling and develop your coping skills.
I would like to know that too. I think we should watch men and try to figure out how they flip that switch when they do.
most of this kind of people have some bad memory in their life,what about you,if you have too then try to forget your past day
I can tell you how because i've done it. i am the kind of person who cries at everything. (maybe i'm depressed, but i've been like this since i was liiiittle. ) so all i do is when i'm about to cry i swallow and i just forget about the event. i have done this so often that it's second nature. of ourse there are the days where i just BREAK DOWN from all the retaining, but i think it's worth it. so all you do is blink while swallowing and forget it ever happened. best of luck!
let yourself be emotional... i've seen people go from being caring and sensitive to cold and sick, completely shut out from the world...
you might cry every day, but would you rather never crying? hearing that your mom just died and not shedding a tear? or watching your best friend take a hail of bullets to the chest and head, and not having any emotions? (yeah, i've seen someone who was over sensitive and very easily upset become so cold that when she saw her best friend take 23 bullets to the chest and another 4 to the head she didnt even cry...)
There may be a way. Check it out with a professional counselor or psychiatrist. You may also have a chemical problem going on that can be fixed or tamed.
