As someone who is not from North America, this positive/good vibe culture really baffles me. You are a human being. Negative emotions are part of life. World is full of pain and sufferings. You are supposed to feel empathy for other people and feel bad for their misfortune even if you have the good luck of not going through suffering. I just don't understand this obsession of feeling good all the time. I don't know how people can just brag about themselves with things like "good vibes only". If you have never felt sadness, pain, shame, or embarrassment, is it something to brag about?
