What Made You Angry Today?

[Heather]

Angry... My daughter's therapist is leaving. Come on 4th therapist in a year. 3 because they left...my kid is not a ping pong ball!!!!

I don't get angry. (Or I RARELY get angry.) I'm supposed to keep an 'anger journal', but it's pretty em...

I only get angry if my rights are trampled on or if I am abused. Those are the only times I really get angry. I am angry because an abusive mental health professional attempted to abuse me and infringed on my workplace to do so. I am angry because this individual is spreading lies and it appears is an active abuser within the mental health care field on top of everything else.

But I am angry too because this dangerous individual did not send a warning off in my head at first. There were typical signs of abuse from this individual that I have experienced with other predators too, but there were traits that I have never witnessed before in abusive individuals and that not only makes me angry, it scares the living daylight out of me because now I am wondering how many of those individuals are out there.

I am usually very adept at spotting predators and many many times such abusers will send out negative body language which allows me to react fairly quickly. However this individual was "trained", trained to spot and abuse mentally ill people, trained to zoom in on individuals that are helpless and in duress. Trained to quickly overpower such unprepared people and to suck the life out of them.

Usually I can tell by negative body language signs, but this predator was "skilled", all of that really troubles me, because when we see an individual like that we would trust that person to be helpful and do the right thing.

Now this monster has shown me the other side of the mental health care field and it is deeply troubling me.

The lady driving behind me - who was almost in my trunk! :shifty: ...and who got mad and upset when I dared to turn left and had to wait for another car. :cautious:

I am angry at all of the days of rain, dreary, gloomy, and cold. I am such a baby.

I am such a baby.

I keep running off, making a camp fire, b/c camping makes sense to my f*cked-off-to-distant-pasts brain, so.. here's a thermos of cocoa, a fire, a book to read, and a blanket.

 

[Ronin]

And I need sunshine and time in the woods.

Me too, Ladee.

So far I've gotten the time in the woods, when sunshine is so sporadic.

@Ronin thank you, you just made my day better. Unerstands about a cozy fire outside and the comfort it brings.:hug:

A complete stranger from my neighborhood started cussing me out and calling me names when I went out to throw out my garbage in the neighborhood dumpster. At first it scared me. Never know about people these days.

@trying2movefwd I am sorry that happened to you. It is scary when strangers go off on you, been there, done that.:hug:

Finding out today that I will need another lumpectomy. Feeling like I can't move. T says it's the freeze mechanism and that people who have an inflamed survival instinct use it sometimes when they are dealing with tough situations. He said I should talk to my survival instinct.... I guess let it know that freezing in this situation does no good? I don't know...
