We all have certain toxic emotions that served during childhood as an adrenaline booster in order to trigger survival mechanisms and environmental adaptability. For some is shame, others guilt, fear, envy, greed etc. Mostly one emotion rules the system and once integrated it has a natural function. It serves a purpose. Healing in the complete sense is not possible. We must accept and embrace the positive and the negative. It is the storyline that we wrap around those emotions, the unreleased response energy trapped in false hiperbolized memory frames will turn them into traumas. Otherwise, this concept does not exist. The danger is lurking at the other end though, in romanticizing these toxic emotions and intentionally inflincting them on others in "helping ways" or even just by unconsciously projecting. Giving people our own toxic emotions is where the ship starts sinking. The first step is in looking honestly at oneselves, accepting and integrating. Not fixing. We were not broken to begin with. It's just that "We only see others where our shadow falls on them". Accepting our own flaws of those if others is real love. We are humans, not fine-tuned machines
