Is there a different way of coping with irrational jealousy compared to rational jealousy?

It seems like jealousy is visceral and immediate and it makes you crazy. I call that irrational jealousy. It comes from nowhere, and I think this makes it much more difficult to cope with. Maybe impossible.
Rational jealousy is about trust and fear of loss and possessiveness and maybe competitiveness (wanting to be the best), and we’ve had a number of questions on that subject.
Do you have any ideas about where the irrational kind comes from and what can be done to ameliorate the situation? Is separating the jealous person from the object of their jealousy the only thing that can be done?
Are there things that are unforgivable? Have you ever experienced them?
