Hey Shadowmedic -

I have anger issues. Basically, as a child (like Cindy), I was not allowed to cry or else I would be physically harmed if I did. Of course, when one cries it's because they are hurting or feel sadness. So in turn, I taught myself to feel nothing instead of something. Now, as an adult, whenever I'm hurt or sad or slightly irritated, I tend to become angry instead of showing the proper emotion.

At this stage in my life I am mostly numb but if there is emotion, it's usually anger. It's something I really want to resolve through therapy. I will say, my current meds has really helped a lot with the anger (I don't rage), so now I'm just mostly numb. But that's not healthy either.

Best,
Rachel
