    Thing is this is actually some helpful advice, as there are studies that say that regularly venting any emotional stress that you might be experiencing or have built up is a very good since it keeps you from imploding. Think of it like when you're working at a nuclear power plant, and the needle on the pressure gauge is getting into the red. Opening the vents to relieve the pressure and prevent the plant from going thermonuclear is what you want to do.
