    I know how that goes. I had to learn to recognize my own emotions and keep from letting them control how I go about day to day life.

    It’s weird to say but the same technique of feeling the emotion then putting it away for later that helped me control acute feelings like anger and sadness also helps me keep from getting disrupted by emotions that slowly well up like depression.

    Of course there actually has to be a later. There has to be a time when that stuff gets expressed otherwise it just builds up and overcomes your ability to function.
