This is a topic that has its individual personal interests and collectively for a society in need of emotional understanding, that is why we can at least know the basics about emotional validation and the effect it has on personal relationships.

Emotional validation is when we as people accept our own emotions at the precise moment in which we feel them, accepting them does not imply that we let ourselves be carried away by emotions, on the contrary, by accepting them we will surely find the best ways to manage them.

When we ourselves do not accept our own emotions, or even it is our environment that does not end up accepting what we feel in the form of feelings, fears or any other type of emotion, we run the risk of not finding the right ways to be able to manage these emotions correctly, simply the premise is that: “what is accepted as such is managed correctly”.

Sometimes they appear suddenly and for no apparent reason, but they do not come “out of nowhere”. They are there to fulfill a function as human beings have to experience all emotions throughout their lives and nothing happens. So don't make the mistake of categorizing them as “good, bad, right or wrong”.

Emotional acceptance can start from the premise that it arises as a human need, because sometimes emotions come to us for no apparent reason, however if we analyze human nature well we will end up realizing that emotions come to us to fulfill a function, but what is that function?

Emotions can serve as a regulating entity in the decisions we make, feeling fear, sadness, joy can lead us to fulfill certain functions that are basic to survival.

The conclusion of the case is that we must validate our emotions, validating them does not imply that they are good or bad, simply by validating them we are admitting that they are part of the human being.
