Here Is How I Handle My Negative Emotions.
Hopefully You Can Relate And Find My Story Helpful.
I had a long list of negative emotions that I had suppressed over a very long period.
And all these emotions stemmed from grief.
The loss of my father and brother within a short space of time left me with a lot of emotional upheaval.
I was left with confusion about how both losses had come about.
It all happened so fast.
I was worried, bewildered and, at 21 years old in our culture, not entitled to get answers to my questions.
Then I found myself in a strange land, Scotland.
But, despite plenty of loving family and friends around me I was still lost.
How I dealt With My Negative Emotions
Lost in this haze of hurt, frustration, bitterness, sadness, loneliness.
I suppressed all these negative feelings and just got on with life as best I could.
However, now and again they would surface.
I would kind of deal with them temporarily by any means possible, mainly through escaping from and avoidance of these feelings.
