Hi Sisyphus2,
My approach to this is please, go easy on yourself...it's perfectly understandable why you like anyone else feels this way from time to time... you're not a vulcan after all...
My advice is don't try to block negative emotions like that because it almost amounts to denial or "holding it in"... like a pressure cooker... face them, talk to yourself about your negative emotions and how it affects you, and what you are trying to do...
Experiment, challenge, work with different ways to work this problem out.

If I imagine having all of the money that I need, the only thing I can imagine "feeling" is a sense of relief from the stress of not having enough. Is this really a positive emotion?

Then consider using that feeling of relief for positive effect, why not?.
For example, take that sense of relief and build it up high to an intense feeling, and use that for your visualization. Then you can slowly step into imagining having the money to do what you want with, with intensity-if you want to.
For getting relief from too many negative emotions, here's something that I found worked for me and even I once admitted it sounded very chessy..
Early in the day, state to yourself, a number of times (like 10 times in each set) something like "
just for today, I will feel and act positive when I visualize"... or " "
just for today, I will release all my negative emotions before I practice I.M"
Be persistent in stating this throughout the day, and watch your behavior and feelings...if it works, use it to get you towards success..if not, then keep trying with something else...
Take care and good luck...
