Techniques for dealing with negative emotions

Good day fellow stingers,

Being now 30 I had decided starting last year after a break up with a Virgo where we literally argued our way out of the relationship that I was going to work out and physically strengthen myself and mentally strengthen by working on controlling those negative emotions from exploding out even when people actively push my buttons. It's been an uphill battle ... like trying to become a monk and wondering how in the world they have that much patience with the world! I had read and read and found a technique that has really helped me get started on changing that part of me and evolving it into an easier healthier me.

It's actually fairly simple and I think I may have even read this from a blog about being a scorpio and handling our negative emotions but wanted to share with you all and see if you have any other tips as well.

As scorpios we like to indulge ourselves in emotions.... we jump right in and swim in them good or bad. Sometimes when we start to feel nervous or anxious or sad we tend to start thinking on those emotions and letting them manifest and grow in our minds... till they get to a point of no going back. Now if you can feel those emotions coming on but before they get beyond the point of no return you just simple deny yourself feeling that...... I like to tell myself "NO! I do not have time for that right now!" ... I recognize what I am doing and actively try to stop it. In the beginning it's very hard... but with practice (just like going to physical therapy) I think this is good mental therapy...

Now I do have questions for those that have worked like this on their negative emotional outbursts.... how do you handle PMS? I can get so SCARY during PMS (not every time - but it seems like most of them are like that). My poor aqua boyfriend just recently got that blast on him about non-sense that wasn't even something I was really worried about and tbh the next day I couldn't even remember half of what I was getting him after about...... this is NOT OKAY! I called and apologized and told him I wanted to make it up to him cause that was totally uncalled for. If anyone has any advice, tips, etc............. love love LOVE to hear it. :-)

"As scorpios we like to indulge ourselves in emotions.... we jump right in and swim in them good or bad." There was no truer word ever spoken about Scorpios! As for controlling your emotions, it's not easy for us(to say the least), but it IS required. Our emotions are good, but blasting someone with them is reserved for only those who deserve it. Not everybody. Online self-help on anger management? But a lot of times, it's someone who has a lot of stress on their plate and they do NOTHING for fun or to decompress or relax in their day times!

I'm a fairly happy go lucky individual... I rarely just walk around raging ... I would say in no way I have anger issues, I have no reason to be angry at anything in my life right now.... I do live HIGH stress..... and usually I shut down to deal with my excess.... but being a biologist and very in-tune with my body I can tell you that I've calculated these times of extreme sensitivity to those 10 fun days before menstruation. I mark them on a calendar and keep track... so I guess I should have worded that better.... my sensitivity during these times is HIGH... and being the emotional scorpio I am... I know my hormones swing left and right during that time.... at no other time you will see me get like that... I can get frustrated... but equally will laugh at the butter life gives me daily.... it's no worries.... I tend to tell my bf about issues during this time more than normal... usually I just brush it off as nothing and move on... if it helps he is an aqua and we know how challenging an aqua/scorpio relationship can be but he's also got a scorp moon so I know when he dishes it back to me as an aqua he is just as deeply wounded by words as I get... so it's like a double edge sword when we talk... mind you we have never even raised voices to each other... we just both get a commanding tone in our voice... like I'm the boss... no no.. I"M THE BOSS...

But this post wasn't suppose to be about that ... but about finding a healthier scorpio with our negative emotions... like depression, jealousy, or yes even anger.... I am like just every other woman with emotions and when I don't feel good (physical pain or mental or both... we can be easy to get upset).... it's not intentional...

Nope^^ not how I go about it. I don't put it under the carpet, I don't pretend it's not there and I certainly don't dwell or indulge in it. It's a big pain in the ass. I address the issue, and knock it out of the way.
