Somebody theorized it, http://tarajenkins.deviantart.com/art/No-Good-War-524432132, http://tarajenkins.deviantart.com/art/Bury-Me-Alive-526864233

Maybe Jasper lost a loved one or really close friend. Maybe that gem was the one who cared about her and made Jasper feel good then she watched her get shattered and changed ever since.

Or maybe it was a really young gem (the mental eqivulent to a baby) and Jasper took care of her and loved her she was her daughter and that gem went everywhere she went then she took her along with her to war. She failed to protect her and watch her get shattered, she was really sad and changed. Then when she was in charge of Peridot she was mean to her and abused her because the gem to her was irreplacable, no one could replace her.

Or Jasper has PTSD.
