REGULATION STRATEGIES
It sounds like you’re dealing with an intense feeling right now - and that’s okay! Remember, ALL YOUR EMOTIONS ARE VALID. What matters is what you do with them.
The goal is not to oppress hateful feelings but to release them without harming ourselves or others
That’s where emotional regulation techniques come in. Using emotional regulation techniques when you’re feeling hateful helps you pause, reflect, and shift out of intense emotions that might otherwise lead to regretful words or actions. By taking a moment to manage these feelings, you can respond with greater awareness and protect both your own peace and your relationships with others.
