These feelings aren't just unpleasant; they also make it hard to function in your normal daily life, and they interfere with your ability to accomplish goals."[6] Other examples of negative emotions include: disappointment, loneliness, despair, apathy, frustration, shame and contempt.
According to James Madison University: "There are 8 primary emotions. You are born with these emotions wired into your brain.
