Always react; but never overreact.

Hi Doctor didi, I think you meant to say that always respond but never react.Respond means you think over the situation and act in the manner which you think is appropriate.React is more of impulsive sort of behavior and usaully causes harm , can be rude.

Well, I do think that there are times that everyone in this world has a tendency to overreact to something that has happened to them in their lives and I don't think that when those events are isolated that it is necessarily a bad thing. However, there are people that overreact on a regular basis and when that happens, I do think that the people that are around those people will have a tendency to not take those people as seriously as they would have were it not for their tendency to overreact.

Finding a happy medium place in reacting is important. One good way is to figure out the situation before opening your mouth. And there are times that being seen as rude or unsocial is just fine. Sometimes things need to be broached whether you may seem rude or not. Each situation is different.

DoctorDidi you are right. Every one have the right to react or respond,but he or she will have keep it in mind that it should not go to that level that it annoys or humiliates anyone. Because you are no one to hurt other people.So people should avoid overreacting. I think this overreacting comes form inferiority complex and frustration where the person wants to make himself more important,more dignified infront of the others,and he starts over reacting.

When someone talk with us, it is polite for us to react to them. listening is an art of communication. People would think you are nice if really listen carefully when they are talking. I used was not a good listener. I ruined a relation because I always wanted to talk my own things.

hai doctor didi reaction and over reaction depends up on the time & situation, if it is necessary to over react have to get done, but over-reacting always figure out you bad in society, always better to react not over react, over react when it is necessary.doctor didi i have a doubt? "i dont think so that mentally sick person will over react,"

I strongly disagree. If something happens and you Want to react strongly and you don't , all that rage goes inward. And that when you lose your good health. So I think it is best to react naturally and if you are rude , then apologize afterward.There is more room in than out.

Yes you are right you must always react what other says. But when you start over reacting then the importance in your society is diminished.

Yes I find this to be true for me as I have over reacted at times and find it to be very unhealthy for me to have done so. I do know try and take a few deep breaths anytime I have to react to something so that I don't over step and or cause any unwarranted reactions as this will cause me to dwell and regret later.

Is overreacting defined as being rude? There are times when we cannot help but overreact and sometimes it may have some positive effect too.

Its very hard to differentiate between reaction and overreaction. Sometimes we think that we just reacted but we actually overreacted and sometimes we just react and people take overreaction. I think we should react there where our reaction has some value. Reacting everytime to get noticed also is overreaction. If you know about something, you may definitely argue over it, but listener should listen you, it makes sense.

hi:) I do react in most situation, but I make sure that I'm not hurting anyone or offending anyone on my reactions, because you're right in every place even if it's in school or office you should react and say your opinion that's the way they will notice you and will appreciate you, but also you need to consider the feelings and what other may think about you after your reactions.
