You are able to identify the change you want to make. This is good.... Would you have identified this opportunity 6 months Ago? 6 weeks ago? Last week? This incident shows progress and hopefully you can see that as a win for you and progress in healing and getting stronger. It is a challenge to change so many years of habit to emotional responses. I commend you.
Learning is the first step.... Identifying opportunities to act on what you have learned is part of the process. You did well to see it,.... You are getting stronger and soon will see the opportunity before it happens.
Hopefully you join us on Blu's thread with the discussion about emotions and feelings. I have learned much, tried many things and found much progress in my seeking out how as you say, "stopping my emotions from getting the best of me."
PS Wonderful GAL activity for you this weekend. I commend you for getting out with friends. Eating, drinking and crying with friends, is a great mix of activities in this stage of the journey. Especially since you have shared introverted tendencies to be alone...
I hope that you have a wonderful day and rest of the weekend.
