Kendo masters philosophy15% Voted for by Kevin, Lady Syndra, letterbox, aslanlight, MantisKid.
Whenever I was troubled about something, he’d always tell me the same thing; “Let it flow through you, like the wind through the willow tree.” It has always worked, no counting to ten, no splitting skulls open, just forget it happened and move on.

Jot it down15% Voted for by Kevin, Lady Syndra, whisperinghope, Dreams of Song, Mechanical Angel.
Write about it. That’s always been my anger and depression vent. If I need to talk to someone, and no one is there, the paper is. Just write it down. If you hate what you had to write, tear it up. IT FEELS A LOT BETTER—trust me

Meh...6% Voted for by Doll-Face-, Flash-T.
For me, I like to feel ALL of my emotions, to their most reactive and chaotic states. Sometimes, I like to feel sad. You know? I’s great to be happy, but being sad isn’t that terrible. I kind of want to feel everything, not be numbed by medication or god.

i let them...6% Voted for by ohsweetie2788, impetuous princessa.
i let them boil and seethe within me until i explode and take others down with me….i hide all my emotions and when they do come out i hit everything in my path…which is usually walls and lockers but it has been people before and i left blood everywhere i went. i cannot deal with strong emotions and i don’t know why…i also cannot grieve.

I love God above all6% Voted for by Mary O, Mujtaba H Zaidi.
I love God above all. He will never let me down. He loves me and will always be there for me. He is my hero. No man can fill his shoes, as no man is capable of His perfection. Thus, as I am weak I realize the weaknesses of all mankind. I’m as much in need of love forgiveness as anyone. If I can’t even perfect the smallest of things how can I expect perfection from anyone else. Consequently, I will look for the good in everyone in spite of any flaws and I will draw my pleasure from each ones unique qualities of goodness. I will accept my weaknesses and look forward to all life has to offer me. I compete with no one but myself to better my own abilities. I’m truly happy for everyones successes and achievements as they are their personal gifts from God. I accept Gods will for me while I’m here on earth whatever that may be. In the mean time I be happy, always. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

PatienceVoted for by Fanelia19.
I also write about it on paper. It gives you a chance to take a second look at bad situations. It gives me a chance to accept responsibility for myself. It helps me to deal with others too.

Little Balls are GoodVoted for by justJane.
I work in a profession where I am expected to take all emotion and mash it into a little ball, eat it, and let it sit in my stomach and fester until it gives me unhappy black farts…and that’s where my anger goes.

Do What You Know is RightVoted for by wbiro.
because to get negative emotions, you’ve had to have been screwing up somehow- not enough sleep to foresee problems coming, poor diet, not enough exercize, finishing work before play, and habit after habit that if broken can do us in…

worry wartVoted for by scottjgilmlour.
people tell me they have to get this off their chest and i ask why the heck would rest anything their. Dismiss, forget and know, that you are more then capable of solving any problem that comes your way.but if now is not the time to solve it. then you will enjoy the present like it should be enjoyed. Don’t then after accomplishing such tasks reflect on how terrible it was but how great you did. peace love and happiness

I embrace them.Voted for by webdemon666.
Negative emotions are just that, emotions, and we have them for a reason. If your mad get mad and take that anger out on something. Now I'm not advicating beating your wife and kids. I'm saying get out and throw a base ball or go to the batting range. Hit a heavy bag for a while. Take that agression out on something and purge yourself of it. As far as depression is concerned the best thing I have found if you don't want to go to the docter and get drugged up, kill your liver, lose the function of your penis, and become a zombie that doesn't care about ANYTHING, Watch, listen to, or read something that will make you laugh. People seriously under estimate the healing power of laughter. It's got me through my crappy life all of these years.

Good punch can save the dayVoted for by -TheLoneWolf-.
Hmmm... Let bad emotions out, don't have to do it in public, don't have to cry. Do something productive. Punch the wall. Great stuff. Gets anger out in a flash. If that is not good enough hit your opposite arm. A good punch can just about save you from a ruined day. If even that doesn't work, write and feel free to use any cursing words you know. Then listen to some heavy rock or metal. Works 100% of the time. Though anger is still there it is simply anegr of a memory, that is not as hard as the real thing.

No one can tell you how to reactVoted for by D8TisMeXD.
Some of these opinions are good ones, and some i disagree with. I do not think that physical aggression can trully help solve a problem that causes negative emotion. Yes, you do have to embrace the emotion, but hurting others in the meantime does not help. Writing has always been a prefered method of mine. Talking it out can also help. And like one person mentioned, laughter is probably the best cure. If i am upset i call my friend, tell her not to bother asking me what is wrong, just to talk to me, and she makes me feel better within seconds. Its not a matter of someone telling you how to deal with your negative emotions, its a method of experimenting and finding the best way to deal with them.
And this is where my hypocricy comes in: My way of dealing, I lock everything inside of me.

huh?
Is that really a good idea? Technically speaking if you forget it happened, forget about it and all it's not too good, for the simple fact that you don't learn from it. What if you were going out, or married to someone, and this person cheats on you, good thing to do is move past it and forgive. But what if it happens another two times? You shouldn't forget about all your problems. it is through harships and problems that a person is shaped, by dealing with them and over coming them.February 24, 2005

A Taoist writer,
Deng, Ming-Dao, says to acknowledge it for what it is, than let it pass through. Very similar to what is written here. It works well enough for me.Lost to Apathy

Acceptance
As is stated above, accept the emotions, and the catalyst thereof. Let it run it's course. Forgive, move on, but never forget.Also a something that really helps with major issues (and can also be used for lesser ones), is to ask yourself the exact reason your overcome with these negative emotions, find the source. It's usually something of miniscule importance. Sometimes with the end result of positive thoughts, due to the usual silliness of the cause.
