Everyone who's ever lost a job may find themselves angry, sad and anxious over what happened. If you lose your job because you did something wrong, were wrongly judged upon or all of these, feel free to rant. Allow yourself to get really angry at your boss, co-worker or any reason that made you lose your job. That said, it is important to find healthy ways to get your pent-up emotions off your chest. Write about it, talk to someone about it, cry, shout or eat a pint of ice cream. Do anything that will help you feel more in control of your emotions and less angry about the said situation.
There is no right or wrong way to feel about your situation. The only thing that will be wrong is if you allow this experience to dampen your enthusiasm for work. If you go around looking for a job and still feel angry about your past work experience, it can sabotage your efforts. You do not want to be talking about your past work experience to a potential employer and badmouthing your previous boss.
