Emotional Leakage

I’m reading ‘Emotional Agility’ by Susan David at the moment and I came across an interesting term.

It’s called emotional leakage.

What happens is that after emotions have been bottled up for a long period of time they come out in unnecessarily extreme amounts, hence the leakage. The scary thing about this is that one has no control over it.

Just thought I’d use today’s blog post to raise awareness about this potentially troubling phenomenon.
