How do you release emotions normally? I don't think i've ever learnt how to deal with overwhelming emotions - even happiness if it is too much of it will make me SH.
Today something happened to make me feel like a failure. I've tried to allow myself a set time to come to terms with it, tried to think more positively, told myself to move forward as the past is out of my control but although i pretend it isn't there it is, just tucked away because it is too painful to look at. Distraction is the key but not the solution.

My objective here is not as much what to do to not SH but more that i think my SH will pretty much stop when i am able to deal with my emotions healthly and normally. I never make any sense do i!?

Any ideas would be welcome. Thank you in advance!
