hmmm I would maybe suggest you do an exercise of listing things you can act on changing and things you can't

and allowing yourself to feel the emotions of the things you cant

like literally closing your eyes and like just feeling it physically, emotionally, cognitively

give yourself space and love you deserve

totally

most emotion is physical

where do you feel this sadness/anxiety/fear, describe it

if you dont mind

its totally cool if you dont wanna

Im willing to bet you might feel them but not realize it

thats where being present comes in

I used to think the same

have you ever done a body scan

i think implementing them regularly could help you recognize it; or whatever excercise helps you get grounded

as for the one's you have identified

seriously just let yourself feel the emotions and speak to yourself about it

saying thank you or something warm to it and literally speak to yourself in your internal monologue about the feeling in a way that gives space and acknowledgement

treating it like an entity you can talk too almost;

hell yeah

I love that

its a good skill; its called meta-cognition

sure; its why they use it to treat pain management

I think accepting the hurting parts as a hurt compatriot in you, and allowing it time is good and can help you know? just being aware of when you get dysregulated and taking space to assuage those aspects of yourself can be beneficial. its the consistency, intention, time, and empathy that helps imo

right, it can only grow through direct experience like a muscle

the dissatisfaction with having a short fuse probably feels overwhelming

the body keeps score friend

it accumulates
