How Do You Recover After an Emotionally Draining Conversation?

[Shree]

Some conversations stay with you long after they've ended, even if nothing dramatic happened. Do you need quiet time, a walk, music, or something else to mentally recover afterward?

After an emotionally draining conversation, I usually need some quiet time before doing anything else. Taking a walk, listening to music, or simply stepping away from my phone helps me reset. I also try not to replay the whole conversation immediately, because that usually makes the emotional exhaustion worse.
