Emotional

A term describing a headmate’s emotional capacity. Emotionality, in this context, is not related to psychology, but how many emotions or how severe a headmate can feel them. An emotional headmate can be described as having an “average” amount of emotions. Often, but not always, these headmates may have somewhat limited emotions, or any emotional capacity most would consider normal. They may care for or not like others, and may have occasionally intense emotions.
There are many different reasons a headmate may be emotional. Some reasons include:
-Forming that way
-Being a symptom holder or some other holder-type not specified
-Forming with or without emotions, but due to trauma or stress that changed
-Or any other reason one may consider the reason, if any at all
Emotional, despite its connotation in daily life, is simply a “base state” for headmates. A system may be based in other forms of emotionality, and the definition of this term is not strict by any means. A system may call themselves an emotional system, but have a base of hyper-emotionality by definition, but since it’s their base state, the term can be used.
Emotional Amnesia

While there are a few definitions of emotional amnesia, it is most commonly regarded as the inability to associate emotions with certain events. Alternatively, the person may still be able to recall the emotions associated with the memory, but those feelings are significantly numbed. Unlike amnesia the memories are still able to be recalled as other memories may be able to, with only emotions being impacted.
Emotional amnesia has been described by some as feeling numb or disconnected about what is happening around you. However, this is more often described as dissociation rather than emotional amnesia.
Emotional amnesia has also been described as emotional lag. Where, when recalling memories it may take a couple of seconds to recall the emotions that are associated with those feelings.
== Plurality ==
In relation to plurality, emotional amnesia is most often associated with OSDD or other types of systems who do not have distinct amnesia between them. It is described as headmates being able to recall the actions that other headmates have done, but having no emotional connection to their actions. This may be compared to watching a movie where one can observe what is happening but not feel the emotions of the recorder or characters.
== Borderline Personality Disorder ==
Emotional amnesia is most often associated with borderline personality disorder (BPD) outside of plural circles. It usually described how a person with BPD may forget emotions associated with a certain person when they split from said person. This is seen as a defense mechanism to protect the person with BPD.

Emotional Blob

An emotional blob is a blob of implacable emotions and seemingly random or contradictory personality traits. A member who has a lot of emotions all at once, making it hard to define only one emotion. These members do have thoughts and actions if they are able to, as they are not only their emotions.

Emotional Distresser

Not to be confused with destressor, a headmate who helps the system relax.
An emotional distresser is a headmate who causes other headmates emotional distress. This can either be done on accident or be purposeful, but it's always done with the intent of helping the system or someone outside the system. Emotional distressers will usually unintentionally harm the headmate they're targeting in the process.
This is always done in hopes of protecting the system, or someone outside the system, from something bad happening. What "bad things" can constitute as can vary heavily - from logical or sound reasoning to things that don't seem to make sense outside of their point of view. Possible examples could range from an emotional distresser believing that going to a specific location would harm the system, to them believing walking in a certain way would lead to something bad happening.
An anxiety distresser may cause a fellow headmate to be anxious because they're scared that the headmate may harm their friend if the headmate compliments them. A rage distresser may encourage a fellow headmate to become enraged out of a belief that the way their partner talked to them could lead to their partner harming the system.
== History ==
This term was coined by Dove from the Chowder System on August 28th, 2023, who couldn't find a term that properly encapsulated stars experience with their role.
== Related Terms ==
Emotional distressers are categorized as misguided protectors, as their intent is to protect the system, but fail in doing so and instead harm it.
An emotional distresser might be a misguided prioritizer, a headmate who helps ease the system's stress.
A persecutor-protector is a headmate that lashes out in an attempt to protect the system.
There may be some overlap with cosedpelians.

Emotionalflux

A term describing a headmate’s emotional capacity. Emotionalflexiblity, in this context, is not related to psychology, but how many emotions or how severe a headmate can feel them. An emotionalflexible headmate can be described as having a varied range of emotions or emotional expressions. Some days, the headmate may be heavily emotional or reactive, the next barely reactive at all. They may fluctuate between these states from the span of a few minutes to a few days, and may have a general base state which they gravitate to most often
There are many different reasons a headmate may be emotionalflexible. Some reasons include:
- Forming that way
- Being a BPD symptom holder
- Forming with or without a base state, but due to trauma or stress that changed
- Or any other reason one may consider the reason, if any at all
Emotionalflexibility, despite its similarities to emotional parts of conditions such as BPD, is not an exclusive term, and is intended to be used by any and all who wish to use the term
As this page implies, other words for emotionalflux include emotionalflexible or any other suffix that may imply change
Emotional Funnel

An emotional funnel is a headmate who steals and/or waters down the emotions of other headmates. This is considered a role.
== Related Terms ==
A rationaliser is a headmate who helps their system rationalise (i.e, argue, relativise, promote critical thinking, avoid overthinking or irrational decisions); this traumagenic-exclusive role may be complementary to an emotional funnel because rationalisation helps to dissipate emotions, especially intense/irrational ones.
An emotion holder can hold positive or negative emotions.

Emotional Part

Category: Psychiatric Terms
Emotional Parts (EPs) are trauma-holding headmates that are typically "stuck" in the time trauma occurred. The term "EP" covers a diverse array of trauma responses, but most commonly anger, defensiveness, self-hatred, disgust, hopelessness, and impulsiveness. 
Many systems rebuke this label for any number of reasons (including the "parts" terminology and the use of "normal" in its counterpart, Apparently Normal Parts), and it should only be used for the purposes of self-identification, not the classification of others.
== History ==
Apparently Normal Parts, Emotional Parts, and other ideas of Structural Dissociation come from Charles Samual Myers, a psychologist who worked with soldiers during World War One. He put the diagnosis "shell shock" (now PTSD) into the scientific lexicon in the early 1900s and described it in the context of dissociation. Later, researchers Ellert Nijenhuis, Onno van der Hart, & Kathy Steele proposed the theory of Structural Dissociation in 2004 by incorporating Myers' terminology into more modern understandings of dissociation and child development.
== Related Terms ==
Emotional Parts, and their opposite, Apparently Normal Parts or ANPs, were presented and defined in the theory of Structural Dissociation as two classifications for headmates. There are also mixed parts, but they are less common.
As Emotional Parts are simply defined by their emotions and trauma response, nearly any system role can be one: protectors, gatekeepers, hosts, etc. Typically though, EPs are trauma holders.

Emotional Regulator

An emotional regulator is a headmate who, in response to stressful or difficult situations, will handle the body’s/affected headmate’s emotions in order to minimize instability. 
However, it doesn’t always have to be negative. A headmate and/or the body could be in a bad mood, and similar to a mood booster, they can take the emotions and manipulate them to make them more positive.
Although usually seen as a protector, this role can be used to harm others' emotions. Headmates may purposely manipulate the emotions of other system members in a negative manner.

Emotion Nullifier

An emotion nullifier is a headmate who nullifies specific emotions of surrounding members while in front. This could either be completely ‘erasing the emotion from existence’ while in front or just finding ways to make other headmates avoid feeling that specific emotion. This may be because said headmate feels as though said emotions aren’t needed, or the headmate doesn’t want the surrounding members to feel anything negative.

Emotion sharing is when the emotions that one member of the system is feeling bleeds over to the others. 
For example, if they are upset by something, the other members might experience some or all of this feeling as well.

Emotion Viewer

Emotion Viewers can view and feel the emotions of the body and of other headmates. Unlike an Emotional Guardian, an Emotion Viewer cannot manipulate the emotions. Emotion Viewers can access emotions of the body and headmates and access all information the system has on said emotions and how to handle them.
One way to view the job of an Emotion Viewer is to better understand what emotions are being felt in the moment and how to help ease them with mindfulness and self care.
