If negative feelings control your life, try the following:
[1]Write down your feelings in a journal.
[2]Express your feelings to a close relative or friend.
[3]Challenge your feelings. For example, ask yourself, ‘Is there really evidence to support such a negative view of myself?’
[4]Do not hold on to anxiety, anger
Bottom Line- Often, negative feelings are not the result of our circumstances but of how we view them.

Holding onto anger is so second nature to me. I've done anger management and I've definitely noticed a difference, but I still find myself ruminating. I think it's one of those habits I really need to find a way to break. anger management helped me recognize my anger, but I still have difficulty letting go of the feelings.
