EMOTION is defined as " Any agitation or disturbance of mind , feeling, passion, any vehement or excited mental state ".
A feeling and its distinctive thoughts, psychological and biological states ,and range of propensities to act.
There are hundreds of emotions, along with their blends, variations, mutations, and nuances. The main candidates and some of the members of their families:
ANGER: fury, outrage, resentment, wrath, exasperation, indignation, vexation, acrimony, animosity, annoyance, irritability, hostility, and, perhaps at the extreme, pathological hatred and violence.
SADNESS: grief, sorrow, cheerlessness, gloom, melancholy, self-pity, loneliness, dejection, despair, and, when pathological, severe depression.
FEAR: anxiety, apprehension, nervousness,concern, consternation, misgiving, wariness, qualm, edginess, dread, fright, terror, as a psychopathology, phobia, and panic.
ENJOYMENT: happiness, joy, relief, contentment, bliss, delight, amusement, pride, sensual, pleasure, thrill, rapture, gratification, satisfaction, euphoria, whimsy, ecstasy, and at the far edge, mania;
LOVE: acceptance, friendliness, trust, kindness, affinity, devotion, adoration, infatuation,, agape;
SURPRISE: shock, astonishment, amazement, wonder;
DISGUST: contempt, disdain, scorn, abhorrence, aversion, distaste, revulsion;
SHAME: guilt, embarrassment, chagrin, remorse, humiliation, regret, mortification, and contrition.
OTHERS: Jealousy ( a blend of anger, sadness, and fear); Virtues: hope and faith, courage and forgiveness, certainty and equanimity; Vices: doubt, complacency, sloth and torpor- or boredom;
four specific facial expressions (Fear, Anger, Sadness and Enjoyment ) are recognized by people in cultures around the world.
Outer ripples are Moods which are more muted and last far longer than the emotion. Temperaments evoke a given mood or emotion making people timid or cheery. Disorders of emotion such as clinical depression or unremitting anxiety , someone feels perpetually trapped in a toxic state.
