Speaking and sharing what you’re going through rarely fixes problems, but it does help as…
a moderate pressure release for you, by simply letting the frustration loose can help relieve the stress of hiding the emotions and behaviors,
gives people around you context to your (likely noticeably) different behavior along with the opportunity to offer support, guidance or material help, and
either speaking or writing an unformed idea that’s vexing you has a finite benefit by taking a fluid, nebulous, unwieldy feeling and capturing it in amber, pinning it down to something that can be refined, examined and (hopefully) mitigated.
For more on this third point, see this article on how one can use writing as a thinking exercise, helping refine and distill ideas into more-satisfying understood truths.
