The Sims 4 implemented a new system to make Sims more smart and interactive, called Emotion. Emotions allow your Sim to react differently, unlock new interactions and many more. For example, an Angry Sim can "Take A Cold Shower" to calm down, a Playful Sim can "Scour for Memes" on the computer, a Sad Sim can "Call Sadness Hotline", etc. Below is a list of the emotions, and the main ways to achieve those.
Angry Sims have different Mean interactions, which will be more successful. Other Sims can try to Calm them Down, if they're not Angry themselves. The Angry emotion can be countered by performing Friendly interactions, taking a Cold Shower, Trying to Calm Down in the mirror or using a Punching Bag. It can evolve to Very Angry and then Enraged. Enraged Sims risk a death by cardiac attack.
Easiest way to achieve: Repeatedly perform mean interactions until the conversation turns in a rude/offensive one.
Example Moodlets:
- Made a new enemy (Angry +2, 4hrs)
- Participating in a rude conversation (Angry +1-3, 4-12hrs)
Asleep
Pretty straightforward, Sims recieve it when the are sleeping or taking a nap. It overrides all the other emotions, allowing the Sim to lose other moodlets, be it positive or negative. Even if it overrides most of the emotions, having the "Really Has to Pee" moodlet will wake them up.
Easiest way to achieve: Go to sleep. What could be simpler?
Example Moodlets:
- Sleeping Soundly (Asleep +10000, until waking up)
Bored
A Sim can become bored through socialization, at random and if one of the two socialites repeats the same interaction a couple of times. It can also be randomly recieved at work, at school and when Spying on Neighbors.
Easiest way to achieve: Start a conversation and repeat the same interaction 3-4 times. The conversation should become dull.
Example Moodlets:
- Dull Conversation (Bored +2, 4-12hrs)
- Work/School Annoyance (Bored +2, 6hrs)
Confident
A confident Sim will be able to perform better at social interactions, and will be able to "Pee Like A Champion". Confidence is raised through many means, examples being drawing a masterpiece, cooking at a high cooking level, making a great sculpture/furniture at the woodworking table or winning a fight. It can evolve to Very Confident.
Easiest way to achieve: While cooking at a level 2 or higher, you can easily earn a "Competent Cook" moodlet. Otherwise, practising Charisma at the mirror is a great way too.
Example Moodlets:
- Won a Fight (Confident +2(+3 for Mean Sims), 4hrs)
Dazed
If a Sim becomes Dazed, he will have problems performing most interactions, and the easiest way to fix it is taking a nap, or taking a bath.
Easiest way to achieve: Get in a fight with a stronger Sim, or electrocute yourself by repairing an object.
Example Moodlets:
- Rocket Crash (Dazed +4, 4hrs)
- Lost a Fight (Dazed +3, 4hrs)
Embarrassed
An embarrassed Sim will feel awkward more easily in social situations, and risks death when reaching Mortified, the 4th emotion level after Humilliated. It can evolve to, as stated, Very Embarrassed and then Mortified.
Easiest way to achieve: Perform something embarrasing during a conversation, like kissing a Friend Sim with no Romantic Interest.
An energized Sim performs better in physical activites, has special interactions like doing Push-Ups and Sit-Ups, and can prepare Protein Plates, which bring an Energized moodlet themselves. It can evolve to Very Energized.
Easiest way to achieve: Take a Brisk Shower, or eat a Protein Plate (which can be prepared after the Brisk Shower).
Example Moodlets:
- Protein Plate (Energized +2, 4hrs)
- Given a Pep Talk (Energized +1, 4hrs)
Fine
A fine Sim won't have any perks of an emotion, and it's simply there to represent your Sim has no emotions at all.
Easiest way to achieve: Don't do anything. Make sure no passive moodlets are present. Although, why would you achieve this emotion?
Example Moodlets:
- This emotion appears only when no moodlets are present.
Flirty
Flirty Sims will be more successful at anything Romantic, from flirting to WooHoo. It is best to achieve this emotion before attempting a date or a romantic meeting. It can evolve to Very Flirty.
Easiest way to achieve: Take a Steamy Shower, then Freshen Up in the mirror.
Example Moodlets:
- Romantic Channel (Flirty +1, 4hrs)
- Tried Outfits On (Flirty +1, 4hrs)
Focused
A Sim that's focused is better at anything required logic and mental work, like programming, repairing and participating in a Video Gaming tournament. It can evolve to Very Focused.
Easiest way to achieve: Browse Simipedia on a computer for a quick moodlet.
Example Moodlets:
- Browsed Simipedia (Focused +1, 4hrs)
- Good Gaming Session (Focused +1, 4hrs)
Happy
A happy Sim is happy about his life, and will be able to socialize more friendly, with interaction like "Brighten Day". Happy moodlets contribute to any "good" emotion, like Focused, so try to keep as much happy moodlets stacked as possible! It can evolve to Very Happy.
Easiest way to achieve: Be in a decorated room, listen to music, eat a good meal, there is a lot of pretty easy ways to become happy!
Example Moodlets:
- Beautifully Decorated (Happy +1-3, until leaving room)
- Good Vibes (Happy +1, 2hrs)
Inspired
Being Inspired helps a Sim with cooking, writing and painting. They will perform better at those, and will produce better quality meals/books/paintings. It can evolve to Very Inspired.

Example Moodlets:
- Thoughtful Shower (Inspired +1, 4hrs)
- Inspiration Juices (Inspired +2, 4hrs)
Playful
A Playful Sim will be more about joking and having fun than working, and performing various activites can be hard while Playful. Funny interactions will be easier to perform. It can evolve to Very Playful, and then to Hysterical. Hysterical Sims run a risk of death if they carry on with the playful interactions, and should calm down.
Easiest way to achieve: Watch Comedy channel for ~30 minutes, or take a bubble bath.
Example Moodlets:
- Bubbles! (Playful +2, 4hrs)
- What A Silly Face! (Playful +1, 2hrs)
Sad
A Sad Sim will walk slowly and overall perform more slowly than usual. Sims that are sad can Cry it Out or Call Sadness Hotline in order to boost themselves back up to a depression-free life. It can evolve to Very Sad. Contrary to rumors, your Sim cannot die from being Very Sad/Depressed.
Easiest way to achieve: Don't talk to anyone. Lower your Social until you get the Sad moodlet.
Example Moodlets:
- Lost a Family Member (Sad +?, 2 days)
- Lonely (Sad +1(+2 for Outgoing Sims), 14hrs)
Tense
Tense Sims will seek fun, and can Vent to other Sims. Tense can evolve to Very Tense, and Stressed. Tense Sims will refuse doing some tasks, and will autonomously watch TV/play games.
Easiest way to achieve: Work Hard, or neglect the Fun meter.
Example Moodlets:
- Desperate for Fun (Tense +3, until Fun is raised)
- Work-Related Name (Bugged Out for Tech Gurus, Overpainted for Painters, etc.) (Tense +1, 6-8hrs)

Sims that are Uncomfortable won't beneficiate from it, although they will be able to Complain about Problems. Uncomfortable usually appears when your Needs are low.
Easiest way to achieve: It'll come to you itself, just go to sleep without emptying bladder.
