Briefly discuss the destructive ways of dealing with unwanted emotions
What will be an ideal response?
There are two destructive ways to deal with unwanted emotions which, unfortunately, some people use. One method is to temporarily relieve intense unwanted emotions through the use of alcohol, other drugs, or food. When the effects of the drug wear off, the person's problems and unwanted emotions remain, and there is a danger that through repeated use the person will become dependent on the drug. Some people overeat for the same reasons-loneliness, insecurity, boredom, and frustration. The process of eating and the feeling of having a full stomach provide temporary relief from intense unwanted emotions. Such people are apt to become overweight or bulimic-or both. The other destructive way of dealing with unwanted emotions is suicide.
