“For some people, their reaction to the situation can make them feel even worse,” says Dr Scoda.
“If you’ve been dumped by someone, having an extreme reaction, like sending a thousand abusive emails to the person who ended the relationship, might leave you feeling embarrassed or ashamed when you look back on it.”
Other damaging knock-on behaviours include splurging on a shopping spree after you open a shock bill, overeating when you’re bummed about weight gain, or chickening out of applying for a great job because you botched a previous interview.
Such behaviours could culminate in depression, anger, relationship breakdowns or career problems.
