My head is a mess. Last night was rough- in my nightmares/dreams I remembered more of my past that I had tucked away and forgotten. I've been lost in flashbacks and dissociation all day. I'm feeling super sensitive, and at the same time a bubbling rage. I just wish it would all go away...

Please help me understand what healthy anger is!? So I went to a Service Station earlier to return some oil I bought for my car (realised after that I had enough at home). The guy told me I couldn't have a refund because I didn't have a receipt (they didn't given me one). I have worked at the...
