Skills Group Community Group
This group is for those who wish to recover or improve their life, coping abilities, distress tolerance or emotions. Each month I will select a topic, and information will be provide on that topic with activities to work through designed to engage you or aid in your recovery. The point will be to try the exercises and then we can discuss what works and what does not work...
Im really bad about getting super mad nd staying that way. My spouse says im invalid in my emotions. ?? Cause i shouldnt have feelings? How do i get the skills to just not care about the things that apparently i shouldnt care about?
As for not getting angry about stuff, learning radical acceptance and what you can and can't control helped me free my heart from the abuse in my environment. Al anon steps from AA is probably a good group that should be learning to detach and not get upset by the behaviour of others.
Nothing more satisfying than the bad people in your life purposefully doing and saying things trying to make you mad and prompt a reaction from you. Hopefully one that will cause hassle for you
And just sitting there totally smug replying "I think you have the right to your opinion..."
Or trying to sort out a problem by arranging a meeting, and then thinking they know your buttons and their response being "your not in control" and already being so into God having control and having total control over your innards. That you just leave it...
And then seeing THEM go on the sick, and then getting the sack over their bad behaviour
Yes it is very satisfying indeed to have detachment from the mad and bad behaviour of others
But then there will always be someone who'll judge you for not caring and not stopping bad behaviour in others
Basically you can't make everyone happy. There is no "right way" no single solution...
So do what feels right to you
I by necessity had to learn not to give a dam and accept shit, otherwise I'd be a murderer or dead by now
