So be angry, and keep going. Let your mind go into combat mode, fight with make believe people and through situations that aren't really happening. But keep going. Be sad, be exhausted, lose hope. But keep going. Still show up. Do the work. Because the anger and fighting and fear and sadness and tiredness and hopelessness? It will pass. It will fade naturally when you keep going. If you let it stop you, it wins.
