Dutch term or phrase: verwerkingsemoties
Ja, men besefte wel dat dit hard aankwam, alsof wat ik vroeg allen te maken had met verwerkingsemoties.

Yes, they realised that it came as a blow, as though what I asked only had to do with process emotions.

I have never heard of "process emotions", so I presume that is wrong.

alleviation emotions (healing process emotions)


Explanation:
I guess 'verwerkingsemoties' should be the emotions related to some 'verwerkingsprocess' (alleviation of pain rel. to loss of so. or sth.)
Healing process emotions, maybe.

Of course, it depends on the whole context.
What is meant by: 'DIT hard aankwam" - to what could 'DIT' refer?
and of course, what exactly did that person ask? (alsof wat ik vroeg...)

But: verwerkingsemoties = emoties m.b.t. verwerking

see: http://www.startrek.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?start=60&t=3907
(interesting site! - search 'verwerkingsemoties' and you'll see the example)

It might be helpful.
