I carry a lot of anger and resentment.

My past was very rough and disastrous. I was living a life of turmoil for soo long. It was like an ongoing nightmare. I felt trapped and naive. Many people were cruel with me. Many hurtful memories. I am trying to let go of the anger because it has only made me unhappy. The anger is overwhelming and scares me. It’s like I’m about to explode. I don’t like to feel like this anymore. I’ve had it with these feelings. Everyone pays the price for the wrong they do. It’s time to let things go and feel free from the emotional pain. What happened has already happened. I just felt like writing something meaningful, lol. 😂

That sounds like a ridiculous payload to have to carry...😪 Sometimes writing it out and talking about helps a little. I have went to a counselor before... it helped me quite a bit. (Well... when I ACTUALLY made it to my first appointment) The month prior, I was very consistently canceling the appointments... most of them, while driving to the appointment. Lol

For me the anger served a purpose .It kept me going through the worst, fueled the fire .If not for that i wouldn't have made it ,problem is now that i don't need it it still simmers inside.

When you don’t need it then try to let it go. It will just torment you. @kodiac

I also had a lot of anger built up from my childhood, and other bad things that happened during my marriage.
I’ve learned to control it mostly now, but sometimes it still comes out.
Gotta let the past be the past. Otherwise those people who did you wrong have won, because they’re not thinking about all those things and letting it affect them, only you are. They’ve all moved on. You also have to forgive and move on. You can’t change what happened, only how you move forward from here.
