Thanks. I do sometimes wait and edit emails but they are still emotional. I think maybe I need a 48 hour period to cool down. However, I would rather not write them in this way at all.

Radical acceptance is great and having practiced Buddhism for many years I use it. However, it is during stressful times I have the most difficulty and was looking for more specific DBT skills related to high stress situations.
