"Good Reasons for Bad Feelings"

"Good Reasons for Bad Feelings" suggests that the emotions we experience are often legitimate responses to our circumstances or thoughts. When we feel upset, anxious, or angry, it’s typically because our minds interpret certain situations as threatening, unfair, or frustrating. These feelings serve a purpose—they alert us to issues needing attention or action. Instead of dismissing emotions as irrational, recognizing their "good reasons" helps us understand their roots, allowing us to address underlying problems more effectively. This perspective promotes self-awareness and healthier coping, viewing emotions as meaningful indicators rather than random or unimportant experiences.
