[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think going on and on about negative emotions helps me. For me, it makes it worse. That doesn't mean that I bury them. Sometimes I just let myself feel them for a short period of time. Often, it washes through you and you have to let the wave subside on its own. Other times, I want someone to help me re-frame. I talk with someone (DH, friend, etc.) and ask them to help me do a reset. Sometimes I just want someone to listen to me complain without commenting. I'll say that's what I'm looking for. I'm careful to not go beyond, say, 10 minutes.[/quote] I don’t think anybody is suggesting going on and on. 10 min seems about right. I really think it’s more like “my boss scheduled a meeting for 4pm Friday before memorial weekend, ugh” Oh that totally sucks. Done.[/quote]
