If there is no explanation that you know of, i.e., no event that brought on these feelings, then it is chemical. And I mean that in the most serious sense. I am very self-observant of the way I am feeling, and sometimes I generally have feelings that I cannot explain. Emotions correspond to some brain state, some ordering and activity of chemicals in your brain. If there is some event that triggers your emotion, your reaction to the event involves some rearrangement of those chemicals that bring on the feeling. But sometimes something internal of which you are not at all aware happens, and the result is a rearrangement of those chemicals, and thus, a change in emotion that you cannot link to any external event.

In fact, it might be appropriate to say that I really have no friends at all, except for my boyfriend, since I really don't hang out with anyone else, and there are quite literally no other people that I would ever go to when, say, I have some problem bothering me, or whatever. There are some people that I hang out with, people I know from the philosophy department I am a part of, but I would hardly consider them real friends, despite that they are all great people. In essence, I am so competely socially inept and terrible at making friends. There is some sort of strange gap between myself and almost all other people, a gap that I am unable to analyze, to understand it, in order to try to close it.
