First, don’t tell me that the answer is just to “not bottle things up”, because that’s objectively incorrect too. Society doesn’t want you to have any negative emotions. I need to know how to not express negative emotions at all whatsoever unless I’m alone. I know it can be done because it is done in many other people on the planet.
Edit: Ok so I think one of the things I want to try doing next is ask for a med change from my psych provider.
I think it’s more of finding ways to express negative emotions in a healthier/safer way, and not necessarily just suppressing it.
Which, incidentally, is what not bottling it up means.
It’s gotta go somewhere, the tough part is finding an appropriate place that isn’t back at yourself.
