In 'My feelings then,' does 'then' mean 'after' or 'that time'?
Could I use 'then' as a means of 'that time in the past' and not 'after'?

Possibly. It depends on what preceded it.
It is fine if you said something like:
I hated to eat peas when i was 10 years old. My feelings then were due to my sister's insistence that I eat them.

you can use "then" to describe a (recent) past that could mean "at that time".
"I would hate myself seeing somebody doing better than I do. that was my feelings back then. now, I learn to accept things."
