I was told something similar, growing up. I see a T who helps me to figure out my emotions and lets me know that its OK to have them even if I don't know where they are coming from. She also told me yesterday that I need to remember that the emotions are just feelings and that the feelings can't hurt me. Not sure if that helps. You could post your own thread here in this section asking for advice.
