I think all emotions are valid, but it’s what you do with them that matters. E.g. feeling jealous or angry, people shame others for it. What they should be shaming is the behaviour that comes in response to those emotions. I’m a big fan of responding over reacting.

It’s also important to remember that just because you feel a certain way, doesn’t mean everything is that way. I constantly feel like I’m doomed. Or in social situations, if I feel awkward, I must be awkward and unlikeable. But then I remember I have a roof over my head, food to eat, a beautiful dog sleeping somewhere in the next room. I have had some successful social interactions and made some good connections. That doesn’t invalidate the shitty feelings, but it helps to put things in perspective for me.
