It happened to me this morning. I was feeling like everyone hated me and I was completely useless and a failure at everything and then I suddenly thought... "What would Worf do?" and things actually started to feel better 🤣 What's your strategy?

I have been trying to get better at just sitting with emotions. The idea being that it helps me learn to tolerate unpleasant feelings and most things will go away on there own given time for your brain to process. This is hard and some times I have to bail out. Journaling where I can describe my feelings and why I think I feel that way can help. Going for a walk and listening to something relaxing helps a lot.
