The Anger

I am recently divorced, almost two months now. We were seperated for 9 months, married for 22 years.

This morning I found myself think about the anger I have yet to process. I know I need to I am just not sure how. I have tried to do the letter writting thing, but then I get really emotional and stop writing. I am so tired of having that one dark cloud hanging over me.

Does anyone have any suggestions??
Thanks

You may not feel "safe" processing the anger alone. You might want to contact a Therapist so that you have someone to get you going on this.

Or, Maybe you have a friend that would be willing to sit down and be a "stand in" for your Ex. Say some things to trigger some emotions and let you get some of this said.

It is not good to keep anger inside. I hope that you can find a release for it.

Boxing.....go to the local gym and take one class. You will get the frustrations out in a heatbeat and feel so much better about it.

I do it every Thursday and it's such an emotional release.

Therapy is huge as well as Tami suggested.

One of many ways is to start watching Hockey. Pay paricular attention to body slams, high sticking, and flat out free for alls. It really cleanses the soul.

Hey Zoot may be on to something...

I was worried because I didn't seem to be angry, when I have every right to be... I would cry and turn it inwards instead of being angry at x. But, I threw myself into hockey... season tickets, so maybe that was jsut my outlet, and I actually worked through it without realising it.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
