You may be feeling uncomfortable with the power of your own reactions today. You might not even understand why your emotions are so agitated. But pretending that they don't exist is not necessarily a smart way to handle the situation, for your denial can inadvertently give them additional strength. Acknowledge your anxiety by sharing what's on your mind with a friend, but don't try to control where the conversation goes. Talking about things should help settle your nerves.
