I hear you however the challenge for some might be to understand the difference between venting and sharing your feelings.

Ok- but if it’s really bad- what do we do? I can’t just bury it.

Consciously expressing and working through negative emotion is ESSENTIAL to being healthy. Unconsciously expressing it is unhelpful.

I think there’s a difference between an occasional vent for release and excessive ruminating that becomes harmful

He brings up a valid point about un-healthy venting and then he vented about it for too long. 😭😭

I couldn’t disagree more. I vent emotions to myself verbally. President Lincoln would sit down and write letters to his opponents, that he never sent. The act of talking it out within yourself helps resolve the problem.

Woodja Flanigan, Ph.D. :
How is "venting" distinct from "sharing" and "relating" and "disclosure"? All of which have been shown to be healthy.
This would be worth pointing out in this TikTok. 🤔

So what’s your recommendation to working through serious problems like grief , loss, pain , suffering? How do you get help if you don’t speak up?

Michael, I love your content! Can you pls share what we are supposed to do to “process” the feelings rather than venting 1x to a support person?

Nah, this take is wildly off. Venting is the path forward. Venting helps our conscious mind understand and empathize with the problem. It also solicits feedback from others. These are powerful helpers in working through it, and should not be written off.

Anyone who can relate to this should look into The Gupta Program, Ashok Gupta

So, don’t talk about feelings… I thought we were supposed to talk about the feels. I’m so confused now…

Venting is about sharing problems to get help finding solutions that weren’t previously visible to you.

As someone who works with complainers, this info needs to be screamed from the rooftops. One negative Nancy can ruin it for everyone.

Seems like we need to find a way to Express without Dwelling. The people I know who struggle with their mental frameworks seem to struggle with expressing to anyone their feelings. Then they blow up, get embarrassed/shameful, and return to the cycle

Y’all I think this is specific to people who consistently vent about problems and don’t take action to to move through it, not healthy venting.

This is someone close to me. I want to share this but know they will just be insulted. Talk about an a-ha tik Tok…wish I could share. You are spot on.

After years of venting I recognized how it was not helpful. This makes so much sense. Today I pull away from constant venting by discussing problem for 5 minutes vs solution for 10-15mins. I now have a low tolerance for venting/esp. w/the same ppl who can’t stop

And the first thing a therapist wants you to do is bring up your past problems. So do new employers. So do new people you date. It's an endless life of people wanting you to talk about it.
