Not so much that you "can't handle" emotions, just that you might interpret them as something else - either taking the physical sensations that accompany emotion for some kind of physical problem, or interpreting one emotion for another. For example, I have a tendency to interpret the physical sensations of mild fear as excitemnt, and think of them as being positive. This probably explains a lot :-( There's also "hangry", and, yes, when I'm physically depleted and exhausted, it's rather hard to stay upbeat.
