I get my feelings hurt so easy

I let things hurt my feelings way to easy ....I wear my feelings are on my shirt sleeve and feel everything deep in my heart..... then try to explain to the person why it hurt my feelings and turns into an argument because they don't understand then I get more upset they don't understand or see why I'm upset. I'm working on keeping the emotions out while explaining but I feel so misunderstood all the time.

@tealFriend6680 it's the same with me you aren't alone at this sometimes it is important to have emotional boundaries and be your emotional regulator it's okay to be open about but don't ask them to calm you for the same. I hope I make sense to you

@tealFriend6680, I have struggled with something similar to this before. What if you try not to pay attention to the other person when it happens? Only focus on your feelings and nothing else. It might help and trying to explain your feelings to other people will make it harder for you. The other person doesn't need an explanation. If anything telling someone how you feel should be enough. Like, I feel sad right now. I feel overwhelmed so I need to step away for a moment.
