Time often is a great healer and helps us understand our own thoughts and attitudes.
I would add that 'meditation time' is always a great healer.
Its strange (or perhaps not?) that problems are often met with an unwillingness to meditate or maybe shorten our meditation with the idea that it's too hard when our consciousness is ruffled. This happened to me the other day after a surprising anxiety producing incident. I pushed through and forced myself to meditate even though I was agitated. I asked for guidance and help, as you suggested Steve, and meditation was much deeper than I expected and the next day the repercussions of the incident simply melted away.
