Primary Emotions vs. Secondary Emotions - Skill 7/30 How to Process Emotions

Get the course: How to Process Your Emotions
courses.therapyinanutshell.co...
In the 7th skill in my How to Process your Emotions course you're going to learn about Primary and Secondary Emotions.
Sometimes the emotion you're feeling isn't what you're really upset about. Sometimes what you're feeling is actually covering up real emotions. You can gain much better emotional control if you learn to identify the feelings underneath your feelings.
Primary vs. Secondary Emotions
One of the reasons we have a difficult time knowing how to act on our emotions is that many of the emotions we feel are “secondary emotions”. They are an emotion about an emotion, instead of an emotion about an event, and usually they’re used to cover up your primary emotion.

About Me:
I’m Emma McAdam. I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I have worked in various settings of change and growth since 2004. My experience includes juvenile corrections, adventure therapy programs, wilderness therapy programs, an eating disorder treatment center, a residential treatment center, and I currently work in an outpatient therapy clinic.
In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life's direction.
And deeper than all of that, the Gospel of Jesus Christ orients my personal worldview and sense of security, peace, hope, and love www.churchofjesuschrist.org/c...

Eve and Grace, Thank you so much for your comments. I'm 66 and been feeling negative about my own delay in coming to these videos and the steps they are leading me to make. Like you, each video I watch makes me feel a little better, a little more at peace. I've been berating myself and shaming myself about the dysfunctional relationship I struggled in and held on to for 9 years after being widowed twice in 12 years. If anyone else brought me concerns of their own along these lines, I wouldn't let them going unchallenged with support. So why can't I release this shame. In some ways, shame is a step forward from the sorrow, despair, fear, and brokenness, helplessness. Thank you, my septugenarian sisters. Let us not criticize ourselves for our delay, but rather rejoice that we are making progress from a life time, in reality, of depression and shame and give thanks for these videos. 💕💕💕

This was super helpful! As a male, it is tough to accept what we initially think is weakness. Once we move past that then we understand growth is the greatest strength that we as humans have

[@TherapyinaNutshell]

Love it! Yes! for so long "Being Sensitive" or having emotions has been seen as weak, but it can be a true strength when harnessed

[@sheenphoto]

AHA moment when Emma described a secondary emotion! "... a habitual or learned response to cover up sensitive emotions with a less sensitive emotion." I've been struggling with anxiety and overwhelm ... trying to understand and move past what I was feeling, not realizing they were secondary emotions. What I actually need to work on / heal are the more sensitive emotions sitting deeper within. This series is gold Emma ... thank you so much for your generosity and style of therapy!

[@RiPp1er]

I was successfully able to regulate my emotions today with my view of the world. I used to have feelings of the world being evil. And this made me have a lot of emotions of hate, and bitterness. But However, I counteracted these emotions by stating to myself that my LinkedIn online presence "sanitizes" the world from being evil. Thus now my view of the world is more positive and now I no longer think the world is evil anymore.

[@kaylamorgan4855]

Today, I thought my primary emotion was resentment/annoyance and my secondary emotion was guilt/shame. After some research, it turns out my primary emotion was helplessness/hopelessness due to caregiver fatigue, leading to resentment/annoyance, leading to the tertiary emotion of guilt/shame. @_@

As a boy, I feared my dad and that fear turned into hate, BUT, I already hated him because he was abusive and I was his targeted victim. He was unemployed and I was homeschooled, so there was no escape. He used me as his personal work slave and he saw no interest in helping me grow for my future. He never saw a future for me. He was my master and I was his dog. I have guilt and shame from the awful things he made me do to myself and the people around me. Im moved out, independently on my own now, but I still have to deal with my mom being the victim of abuse, because shes too scared to leave him, so now I feel guilty for leaving my mom all alone with him. So now as an adult, I have a tornado of Fear, Hate, Guilt, Shame, and everything else when it comes to trauma.

[@Andromeda-md6ch]

I hope you are doing better today.

[@MrJegerjeg]

Some years ago I went trough a very difficult break up for me. I read on the internet about meditation so I started practicing it. I remember going trough some very painful feelings. Starting with hate, a lot of hate because of the pain she caused me, after that I felt: Shame and embarrashment for giving her for granted and letting her go. It was like peeling an onion with more and more layers of different emotions. One sitting meditation could last a long time and used to leave me emotionally exhausted. It took me such a long time to get over the break up.

[@archetypalmuse]

Bless you for putting this up for free. I've been struggling so much with social anxiety and my self-worth/self-esteem (and I suspect social isolation in this pandemic would tend to worsen those kinds of symptoms), and I can only afford to see my therapist once a month. This series has been providing so much information for me to keep working on changing the way I think about my emotions and myself, core beliefs, etc. These are really well-made and well-explained. Thank you.

[@peachyspalace]

I’ve been going through a really tough time since lockdown. I’ve always struggled with anxiety but it has gotten to the point that I have had many panic attacks and even tried to self harm a few times because the emotions were so overwhelming. Where I live therapy is 400$ an hour and free services have crazy wait lists. I was beginning to feel hopeless. I have been watching your videos for a week and your content is seriously amazing! I already feel like I have so many more tools to handle the scary things in life. This is the first time I’ve felt ‘normal’ in a while. Thank you for everything you do!!

[@jesspressterp]

I was wondering why my go to emotion was anger. i just watched this and did eft tapping on my anger and realized growing up with brothers if i wanted to be heard i had to be tough meaning .. get angry! Wow! So the underlying issue is not feeling heard and being trained this was the most effective way to communicate. Loving this series so much!!

[@ralfwashington1502]

If your not already start to build a nest egg. Save as little as $10 per check or more that is ONLY for emergency. You can create several funds like house payment/car payment, medical emergency, food, ECT or one large savings. Long story long if you know you have money tucked away for a rainy day you will feel less stuck and know you can cover 3 months without a job and pay for needed things. Then you will be more willing to push harder with that safety net.

This is excellent. I watch one or two every week. It is very difficult to find content of this nature without extraordinary and outlandish claims. A lot of us don’t have the financial stability or time, from necessary overworking (meaning it’s highly likely you will sink financially if you don’t keep doing 12 hour work days) to research resources that are reasonable, well balanced and with a high level of expertise. A thousand thanks and more.

[@acemcplane]

Wow, this is an incredible channel. KZbin is the perfect format for this. Making basic information about therapy free right now during the pandemic is just so helpful. I hope the sponsors are paying you well. I would love it if therapy in general worked based on sponsors and made money like Linustechtips does instead so it's more available to everyone and I actually like this format better too. It's passive and you can go at your own pace. Keep it up!

Thanks so much for making these available, Emma. This is one of my favorite videos you've released. The following passage was very poignant and really touched a nerve: "Secondary emotions are all about self-protection, but in the long run they tend to hurt us much more by ruining relationships, keeping our guard up, keeping our heart walled off, and that often leads to people feeling angry, numb, exhausted, and lonely. Secondary emotions lead to more pain and suffering." Being given tools that enable you to be able to identify and label toxic thinking patterns & habits is invaluable. It helps to shine a light on things you never really realized were there inside you.

If you can work on setting boundaries, and making excuses to limit your connection/communication with him. "My bath water is flowing and don't want it to overflow or get cold. Talk to you later.". Don't call until you are strong enough time engage and come out unscathed. Yes, get to the library, and download ANY free book that will help. Try, "Emotional Intelligence." It is a free audio book available on You Tube. It will also help you find your place amongst other personality types too. Good luck.

“Shame is one of the other most common secondary emotions, especially among women. If you’re not allowed to be angry at others, it’s easy to avoid or cover up that anger by blaming yourself for your flaws. ... Secondary emotions require a certain amount of numbing. They generally lead to distance and disconnect from our goals, values, and people.” Wow. There’s my inner life (in a nutshell. ;) I want to learn vulnerability and emotional literacy so I can heal, and now I know which direction to go. Thank you, Emma!!

[@jessIe76468]

This somehow reminds me or clean and dirty pain. The clean feeling is the one we truly feel. The secondary is the dirty one used to cover up. It's not clean or truthful, usually less "pure" and more selfish as it's tending to protect us and avoid vulnerability.

There's is so much information, I'm trying to soak it all in. I've even signed up for better help. I've realized I've been putting off my mental health for a very long time. I can't thank you enough for helping me through this obstacle.

I didn't know all of this during my worst phases. It is a miracle to see therapy like this. I really want a friend like you who actually soothes you down instead of exhausting and draining you. Thank you so much for this ❤

Thank you for this series. As someone who is in therapy, but chronically stressed and a compulsive overeater, this is truly a life saver. I thank you for your generosity.
