The best way to develop immunity to a certain emotion is by facing that emotion time and time again. You need to feel the pain and not hide it in order to reduce it. You can simply compare this with a physical wound. Wounds need to be exposed so they can get healed. Therefore, you need to express your emotions to someone who you can trust. If you can’t trust anyone, you can always trust yourself and write a personal diary. At least this way you will be able to face the emotional pain by reliving the moments which made you feel that way.
