Episode Synopsis

What if your emotions don’t disappear—they just shift shape? In this eye-opening episode of Emotional Algebra, Dr. Erik Fisher explores what really happens when we suppress emotions like overwhelm, failure, guilt, shame, doubt, and hopelessness. Spoiler: they don’t go away—they multiply, resurface, and evolve into new forms.Using the laws of physics and the concept of emotional mass, Dr. Fisher draws a powerful analogy: just like matter can’t be destroyed—only transformed—your emotions follow the same principle. Suppressing sadness or shame is like trying to blow up an asteroid; the pieces just scatter, and some become even heavier.We also look at the internal conflict between your logical mind (which wants to simplify or eliminate emotions) and your emotional truth (which demands to be felt, heard, and processed). When logic says, get over it, emotions say, I’m still here.This episode is perfect for anyone who has ever felt emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in shame, or frustrated by their inability to move on. Learn why emotions are energy, how they change forms, and how to process and shift emotional weight—rather than carry it silently.🔔 Watch the full episode here: [https://youtube.com/@ErikFisherakaDrE]Follow Dr. E... for more insights:📍Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/dr_e_presents]📍Facebook: [https://www.facebook.com/share/1BkhUS8X4w/?mibextid=wwXIfr]📍LinkedIn: [https://www.linkedin.com/in/doctore]📍TikTok: [https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.epresents]📍Twitter/X: [https://x.com/dctre]📍Spotify Podcast:[https://open.spotify.com/show/3w9W0ZOwfwXkbxeFO5ChWG?si=apAiDAcwTxqhQl-xXWzAoA]#DrErikFisher #EmotionalAlgebra #EmotionalOverwhelm #SuppressingEmotions #EmotionsAreEnergy #EmotionalHealing #GuiltAndShame #TraumaRecovery #MentalHealthAwareness #FeelToHeal #EmotionalPhysics #LogicVsEmotion #OvercomingFailure #HealingThroughAwareness #ShiftingEmotionalWeight
