Emotions are signals and sadly there’s a large number of people that preach cope as the solution rather than actual methods to address these things.

They preach being busy as if everybody isn’t already so busy in this generation. They preach cold showers, religion, etc.

Emotions are like your children and if you choose to only accept the “good” ones and push away the “bad” ones then you’re doing yourself a disservice. 

If you got negative emotions, that’s your unconscious trying to tell you something. 
You can either push it away and it comes back later stronger or you can lean into it and try and understand the message.
