Negative Emotions and Positive Psychology
Firstly, we talk about positive psychology and then the existence of negativity in life or Negative Emotions and psychological facts about it.
Positive Psychology is about positive aspects of your life like happiness, wellbeing, and flourishing. Five elements of well-being and flourishing according to Martin Seligman's building blocks of well-being are called the PERMA model: positive emotions, engagement, positive relationships, meaning, and achievement (PERMA).
Traditional psychology focused on clinical aspects i.e. about the disorder it did not talk about the positive attribute of the human. It was Seligman who said psychology is not about disease or disorder rather it is also about the growth and flourishing of man.
Negative Emotions
According to positive psychology, we should not repress our emotions, we should express them. We cannot be always happy, it's a life, happiness, and sadness both are part of life. like positive emotions, negative emotions also part of life. The thing which matters is how we deal with it. If we repress our thoughts it will harm us, we will suffer from frustration, which leads to aggression, and of course, aggression is not a healthy emotion.
