I try to focus on the internal why of my feeling negative emotions rather than who/what caused them. Usually I learn something about myself and my situation that I may have been avoiding and am able to turn the experience around so it is a growth opportunity for me and I end up feeling proud for having accomplished that. The only way I know to not be triggered or feel bad is to resolve the issue rather than try to stop other people or outside influences from getting to me.
