See my confusion was this: "What do I do while I'm sitting there feeling the feelings?". Because in my experience, you sit there, you feel the feelings, and then because you are feeling them, they usurp your mind and end up becoming bigger than they actually are - it's just like you're stuck in them. And they get bigger and bigger until you take yourself out of that situation and use distraction to focus on something else, and they fade away. Otherwise you go mad, and end up a raving lunatic over something that originally was quite small hehe. Sort of like if someone says a little snide comment at you - if you sit there and sit with those feelings, you start getting angrier and angrier because you are focusing on this one thing.. and in the end it all basically ends up getting warped in your mind, becoming bigger and and bigger - totally out of proportion with the actual thing that made you angry in the first place.

Is it just anger that that happens with? Maybe anger is different to the rest of the feelings in that department. I think it happens to me with sadness and disappointment and fear too. But maybe I am doing the wrong thing while I'm "sitting with the emotions".

So what is it that you do? Maybe you aren't supposed to focus on it in that particular way or something like that. Or maybe I think too much during the "sitting with it" bit. I have no clue hahaha
