Fleeing is usually hard, especially if you have no experience doing it and you think you're supposed to do and/or not do some big things that conflict with fleeing. But it's doable, if costly

I think in the case you need to flee and you can, sitting with the emotion is going to lead to apathy and depression. In the case where you can't flee, acknowledging and sitting with the emotion will give you the opportunity to deal with future problems in a more equanimous way.
