Since most of my emotions seem to be persuaded by thoughts, I’d say thought comes first.

I think thoughts lead to reaction So I think thoughts comes first.
I think people tend to react without thinking about it until after the fact thanks for sharing Virginia
Emotions often arise first—they can be automatic, triggered by something happening around you, like a stressful situation, or even by a thought. For example, you might feel anxious when you’re faced with a challenging task, and that emotion could then influence the thoughts that follow, like “I’m not good enough” or “I can’t handle this.”
On the other hand, thoughts can lead to emotions too. Sometimes, you might consciously think about something—like worrying about a future event—and that thought generates an emotional response, like fear or excitement. So, in that case, a thought precedes the emotion.
You’re absolutely correct Kimberly people do tend to react which is to show emotions first then think about the situation after the fact thank you for sharing
Typically not when emotions are involved most react then think after thanks for sharing
