Ask HN: How do you personally process bad emotions?

I never learned it properly so I'm looking for any and all tips.

I’m writing about this topic here: https://www.satishmummareddy.com/blog/definitive-guide-to-im...

The path that works for me is journaling. I start with naming my emotions and then what actions trigger those emotions and then what is the best/worst case, what can I do right now (options), pick best action item.

This process takes me from understanding my emotions to clear next action.

Unless I have a clear next action my mind can’t let go.

    Cool, I saw your site in the new page.

    Do you have an example of what a "next action" could be?
