A healthier way to vent
- Be selective about when you vent. Instead of venting to people, you can gain perspective on your own by writing your thoughts down or changing your environment.
- When you vent to others, ask them for their perspective. It will help you not to keep rehashing your experiences.
- Consider to whom you vent. Did this person help you last time you spoke to them or just make you feel worse?
- Be careful around online venting. Negative emotions easily spread online, which can result in bullying or trolling.
