    Fear

    • A strong emotional response to perceived threat or danger.
    • A natural survival mechanism triggering the fight-or-flight response.
    • Common physical symptoms: increased heart rate, rapid breathing, sweating, and trembling.

    • Associated with feelings of hostility, frustration, and annoyance.
    • Characterized by physiological changes like increased heart rate and elevated blood pressure.

    Disgust

    • Triggered by unpleasant smells, tastes, sights, or textures.
    • An innate emotion promoting avoidance of harmful substances and maintaining social norms.

    • Develops a foundation for healthy emotional regulation and social interactions throughout adulthood.

    Managing Emotions

    • Acknowledge and label emotions: Recognize and name the feeling to gain awareness and perspective.
    • Identify triggers: Reflect on past experiences to understand what causes specific emotional reactions.
    • Change what you can: Minimize stress triggers through:
      • Reducing job stress (delegating, setting boundaries, seeking support)
      • Practicing assertive communication to manage conflicts
      • Changing negative thought patterns (cognitive restructuring)
    • Find outlets: Engage in healthy activities to release negative emotions:
      • Regular exercise
