Techniques for releasing trapped emotions?

My recent emotional meltdown showed me how much emotional healing that I need to do.
Physical exercise seems to temporarily release the physiological response to such wounds, but they remain.
Meditation seems to temporarily calm the mind, but they remain.
Similarly with yoga, breathing exercises, journaling, tripping (shrooms, cactus, LSD), counseling and so forth.
If any of these had some permanent effect, I would not have been blown out of the water.
Not sure if ayahuasca (did it once) or iboga is a possible solution. Any recommendations from people THAT HAVE PERSONALLY HEALED OLD WOUNDS with a specific technique?

Confrontation with the emotions tend to work for me. Alot of the time most of the clogged emotions are stuck in my head, regurgitated and made to become this monster.
What kind of emotional blockage is affecting you?

Are you aware of what the cause of these emotions are? Generally things like this persist because we can't get to the bottom of why they are there.

An entire lifetimes' (60 years) worth of repressed emotion I regurgitated on the woman I most love and drove her away. I didn't even know they were there. Grief, abandonment, hurt, betrayal, unfulfilled dreams - the full cornucopia. And I did tons of 'spiritual' work as a young man. Seems all for naught. I have to clear them - and not just superficially, before I even attempt to date/love again. And definitely before I attempt to contact her again. So much work; so little time. FUCK!

Awareness is the first step I suppose, acknowledging that these emotions exist within you.
The next step I guess would be to determine the cause behind them.

About abandonment, hurt, betrayal:
I meant to add confrontation to people as well. Have you ever tried telling the people who hurt you to basically "You hurt me, and fuck off"? I know it sounds dumb but writing letters to people worked as well. I don't ever send them off but at least I let it out. I've written so many pages worth of letters to people, and often after I do that I go back and write another letter. After that I usually let it out of myself as well, and try to thank myself and accept the past and then love myself. The past will never change, but sometimes you have to bring it back up to deal with it. It's like opening a box in the attic, shuffling through the contents, wrapping yourself in the moment of hurt, dealing with them, dusting them off and putting them nicely back in. It takes me several times of this 'attic box' gig.
About unfulfilled dreams:
Do you think you could possibly still do them?
About your lady love:
Are you still in contact? Have you apologized? I would leave this one for last though...
Honestly, this is just how I deal with clogged emotions and have found it's the best way along with physical activity and quieting my mind. I try to find fulfillment in my life as well and doing good things and making others happy. Otherwise I end up going crazy and hating myself for feeling like a victim.

Thanks for your suggestions. I will consider them.

No and yes. I tried to express love and it came out as craziness. And she panicked as any healthy woman with self respect would.
After four decades, hundreds of dates and dozens of relationships, it all came out now and in full force. *sigh*

"Awareness meditation" is not necessarily/always a pleasant experience, but conscious awareness of turmoil or pleasure of some kind does offer a path in which to experience without the bias generally associated with our emotional being. Not being void of bias, it's an opportunity to see the tendency to want to hold onto and express certain thoughts and feelings. Being the observer isn't about any goal except simply watching what's happening. If there is any sense of conscious change to be experienced it's within the context of seeing things clearly, also said "plainly", each thing thought or felt being it's own form with an observed sense of emotional relevance. I think things are more easily let go as they are understood and things may not be as they seem, so there is not a need for fear or love (emotions) to be the primary motivator in change but rather curiosity. Then you can get introspective without leaning into it. It is not about change, but in knowing thy self.
Falling in love is necessarily about falling, so don't give yourself a hard time. Your emotional wounds will heal given time, probably faster if you're not stressing about how to heal them or being certain the cause was a personal quality that needs to be exorcised. You got to lose to know how to win.

Most of them, no. But I wanted one final fulfilling relations - marriage perhaps (never been married - no kids) - and I found the one I was willing to go the distance with. I think that deep commitment is what triggered the avalanche so that I could clear the past.

Sorry she reacted badly OC. Do you mind me asking what happened that you guys split? How long ago did you apologize? Do you feel like if you were to be able to be with her that you could move past your clogged negative emotions? Is she still available?
I'm just going to give you an internet hug.

Some call it soul shock at meeting your twin flame and my symptoms matched that. My counselor calls it PTSD and the symptoms sort of match that, but not the extreme pain of separation the likes of which I had never experienced.
Either way, it was the single most defining moment in my adult life - and when I had totally given up on love. Now I cannot find peace. I can't go back to my old life and can't seem to move forward to clearing old barriers.

DMT/Ayahuasca will definitely change your fixation at the least temporarily. If some desperate experimentation is desired get a health checkup first, blood pressure etc.
I use to experience a lingering and insidious sadness for years that vanished after a DMT trip. The mechanism a mystery.
And beware of the side effects increased woo woo ness.

This is a little extreme but I guarantee this works. Get holosync binaural beats. You're only supposed to listen once per day and go along a certain schedule. I listen to it all night and a little during the day so with 6-10 listens per day I go to the advanced brainwave beats pretty fast. It puts your brain into advanced states which are usually only achieved in deep deep meditation. I have to sleep extra to recuperate but I feel peace like I've been meditating for years and I processed what feels like mountains of old material really fast without needing to focus or try hard. It all comes up effortlessly. Try at your own risk. The results are dramatic enough just taking it slow and their FAQ advises against overdoing it. Every night that I listen, something new comes up to process.
