What exactly is “being overwhelmed”?

When I'm overwhelmed it's not because I have too much going on. I'm actually pretty good at making lists, planning and overall sorting things out. I'm good with working under pressure.

It's more like being overwhelmed with the pure fact that I exist. My emotions are too much too handle so I just start crying to calm me down. Sometimes I have to lay naked on the floor because feeling the clothes on my skin bug me and I have to stare at the blank white ceiling. It's like I'm feeling too much kinda. I'm struggling to find the right words for it but maybe some of you relate and can tell me what it actually is, how to cope and prevent this from happening.
