Lola had a little sister, Suzie, who she would watch when her parents were at work. Because Suzie was so young and innocent looking, they never blamed her for anything and claimed she had no "responsibilities" whereas Lola had many. One day, Suzie kept touching Lola's phone and iPod and obviously, Lola was upset. She at first told Suzie nicely to stop touching her stuff but that did not work. Suzie kept talking back to her sister and kept getting on her last nerve. That is when Lola started screaming at Suzie at the top of her lungs and Suzie and her got into a screaming match. Lola could not take it anymore and she just slapped Lola multiple times. Suzie got aggressive but scared and decided to fight back a little bit. Her parents got home and Lola of course got in trouble. She almost wanted to cut herself because she was so mad. The End. This story depicts an emotionally unstable person because Lola can't get her anger out in any other way but to hit her sister. In my opinion, being emotionally unhealthy means that you can't express your feelings in a positive or nice way-you go out of control and start to put yourself in others in danger. Also, people who are emotionally unstable act too crazy or emotional on the "scale" of emotions or act too "happy" on the same scale.
Elizabeth was an employee at a high-powered P.R. firm. She loved the job except for her boss, who was a very opinionated person and on almost every topic they discussed, they always butt heads. She knew she couldn't do a whole lot about it because he was the boss and she could get fired. One day, he got on her last nerve and she decided to have a nice, polite talk about it. She realized afterwards that even though he did not get much nicer, she handled the situation in a good "emotionally stable" way. Elizabeth didn't behave in a crazy, erratic way-she behaved maturely and in a way everybody would consider normal. She was emotionally stable and this is what our society likes.
