Being unsatisfied in the relationship also increases the risk that one partner who drinks heavily will assault the other. Other studies have also shown that a leading trigger for violence when one partner is drinking is an accusation of infidelity.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"cta-callout float-left full-width cta-hikers-begin-recovery-journey-today  hidden-xs hidden-sm\"><div class=\"cta-container cta_image row mobile-only\"><div class=\"cta\">\u00a0<\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7077dfe elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7077dfe\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"content-block\"><div class=\"padding-top-content\"><div class=\"section-content\"><section class=\"content-block\"><div class=\"padding-top-content\"><div class=\"section-content\"><section class=\"top-text-callout\"><section class=\"content-block\"><div class=\"padding-top-content\"><div class=\"section-content\"><section class=\"content-block\"><div class=\"padding-top-content\"><div class=\"section-content\"><section class=\"content-block\"><div class=\"padding-top-content\"><div class=\"section-content\"><section class=\"content-block nitro-offscreen\"><div class=\"padding-top-content\"><div class=\"section-content\"><section class=\"content-block\"><div class=\"padding-top-content\"><div class=\"section-content\"><ul><li><strong>Behavioral therapies.<\/strong>\u00a0These kinds of therapies, including the gold-standard cognitive behavioral therapy, focus on practical strategies for becoming more aware of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in the present and taking steps to change or cope with those that are negative. It provides tools that can be used outside of therapy to confront and deal with negative feelings in a positive way.<\/li><li><strong>Reappraisal.<\/strong>\u00a0Researchers have found that people with healthy emotional coping mechanisms commonly use<a href=\"https:\/\/www.scientificamerican.com\/article\/the-nuts-and-bolts-of-emotional-sobriety\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">\u00a0a strategy of reappraisal<\/a>\u00a0to confront milder negative emotions. They confront rather than avoid the feeling and reframe it to make it more positive. For example, feeling anxious about a job interview, a person might recognize the anxiety and minimize it by focusing on the positives of having a new job.<\/li><li><strong>Mindfulness practices.<\/strong>\u00a0Being emotionally healthy includes being aware of feelings, not dwelling too much on the past or future, or in other words, being mindful. It is possible to practice and develop mindfulness through techniques like yoga and meditation.<\/li><li><strong>Social Connections.<\/strong>\u00a0Having a strong social network is another good way to manage negative feelings. Being able to talk to someone who can be trusted is an important factor in confronting and dealing with troubling emotions. Good social connections do not have to be numerous, but they do have to be deep and meaningful, rather than on the surface or shallow.<\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/section>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8375ed4 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8375ed4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"content-block\"><div class=\"padding-top-content\"><div class=\"section-content\"><p>Emotional sobriety is a state, but it is also a process.
