I've never gotten my Sim to anything more than Very Angry even though he's a hothead who gets +2 Anger from seeing his stepfather and +2 Anger from loud noise and guess what, he has one very noisy neighbor: his stepfather. :joy: So he's Very Angry very often. Also had him fight with dear ol' stepdaddy but things never progressed to furious, let alone enraged.
He did come home from school Enraged once because of a mood swing, but he very easily survived. He's also been Mortified because of mood swings several times actually, but this was also easy to deal with.
He's been Hysterical once because he's a chief of mischief and his wife a goofball, but this too went away fairly soon. He's also been Mortified after an embarrassing conversation with a love interest who'd caught him cheating and I didn't even have him calm down or anything, but again, he lived.
So either my Sim is just extremely durable, or these emotional deaths are not at all as "dangerous" as some say. :lol:
