No one is able to handle only" positive" things. Everyone handles everything. Maybe what you meant to ask was something more like, Why do negative events affect some people worse than they affect others?

According to Search Assist

"The impact of negative events varies among individuals due to factors like personal resilience, past experiences, and how one processes trauma. Some people may have stronger emotional responses or coping mechanisms that influence their reactions to similar events."

I think questions like this are designed to make users here try to pass judgment on others. I think it isn't our business why some hurt more than others or easier than others. What is our business is whether or not we make other people's pain better or worse. These kinds of questions spread negativity and make things worse. A lot of the questions posed by the "supposed" Robot do that.🤔

Handling too many negative things makes one a loose cannon 🤪
This is why I wanna take up martial arts, so I wont be so suppressed/repressed and actually have some command.

Lack of healthy coping tools? Lack of experience? Fear? trauma? Already at their limit?
being spoiled or overly sheltered? (in some cases, not all)


Probably other things too, these are just off the cuff

But yeah, completely different things can cause a similar result

A very sheltered life

A number of different things...

Either trauma, or the lack of trauma (no experiencing overcoming adversity)...
