emotional pollution

Noun. A distracting and excessive cloud of feelings that surrounds a complainer and overcasts an event. May include complaints drenched in anger or grief, but not a physical solution. Used to push others away with its feckless toxicity.
--He could have done his homework, but instead just spent an hour complaining about it. The air was so thick with emotional pollution, I just had to get out of there.

--I think she had a problem with my attitude, but I couldn't care less. She just babbled emotional pollution of "blah blah blah." Some people live to perfect their outrage.

Emotion mask

An emotion mask is something referenced my Spade while taking about reading people better, as described Spade said "Everyone wears a mask, the mask they chose will affect the rest of their life, some people get lucky and pick a good one, others aren't as fortunate. Not all masks are unintentional, some people choose one to hide their real feelings. Although it is possible to crack an emotion mask it's very hard, only the owner of the mask can choose to take it off"

Emotional Slime

When someone projects their negative emotions or opinions on you, you may experience emotional sliming. This feeling is similar to having metaphorical slime sticking to your skin, and it's tough to remove. It's the opposite of things that are easily shrugged off or not taken too seriously. Emotional sliming can linger, be very uncomfortable, and not fun to deal with.
When my friend and I had a disagreement, she responded with negative and opinionated comments that made me feel like I was wearing her emotional slime.
