Hello there itโs me again want to tell a friend not having anyone around here I go to sing my sound. I want to get this off my chest. Why? Oh why? Of course i...
Yes therapy will help guide you. But you also got to do the self-help work outside of the therapy sessions too. As a female, I've experienced a time when my anger showed up unexpectedly. I had to acknowledge it, understand it, and learn how to manage it. I found that certain things aided in the flare ups: a boundary that's been crossed, not being assertive enough, holding too much in until you explode, triggers from the past or current situation, suppressed or repressed feelings that got brought to the surface, unresolved trauma and issues, childhood upbringing, cultural briefs about females and that it's not ok to express anger, etc. I recommend looking into what Nonviolent Communication is and other techniques. Hope some of this helps you in some way. Best wishes.
ReplyFemales with brains know to ignore cultural beliefs and if as a female you have anger, then it's quite legitimate to have anger as you are in fact a human being just like men.
ReplyI am aware of that. I have brains, life skills and a college degree... thank you very much. I was simply trying to help the op and provide examples. I meant no harm to the op. So I see no need or reason for your rudeness with me.
ReplyJust because something is a cultural belief, does that mean one cannot do some independent thinking and ignore sexist cultural beliefs perpetrated by men and submissive females in those cultures?
ReplyAs I just stated in my reply to the comment above. It was an example for the op. I am a aware of what you are saying. I agree, all humans experience anger like all other emotions and should be allowed to express it. And for me it was more of a social/sexiest thing really than a cultural one, I just realized that I meant to type that instead. But still that doesn't change how I was raised about expressing your feelings of anger. As I got older I became more of a critical thinker and gained more of an independent mind set. I had to re-program those things I was taught.
ReplyIt's great that you're willing to consider therapy to improve yourself. Maybe therapy will show you that there are healthier ways to channel your anger. And teach you new ways to express your feelings and emotions of anger and hate. Good luck.
