Thanks, Miss. I've been experiencing the same thing, but hadn't thought of yogurt to help... Went right to my favorite comfort food - (homemade white or sourdough) bread, not especially helpful in the health side other than the arm and frustration work-out.

Anvil (as always) has a good point about owning all of our emotions.

There are days I have to allow myself time to just feel: OK, the next 15 minutes I can bawl my eyes out, but then I'm going to go do a load of laundry. Maybe later the same day another 5-10-15-30 minutes....

Getting outside definitely helps me. There are days I have to literally force myself to leave my room, but once I'm outside, I'm able to breathe.
