After many, many years in therapy with no success in coming up with much anger, I think I am finally making some progress. I am working with a new therapist who has been very skillful in steering me back towards it at every opportunity. Just yesterday I came face to face with the fact that I am so angry I have basically been refusing to participate in life for most of my adult life. Sad but true.

I have also found a very good on-line resource for many of the issues I am trying to work through. If you google the word coping this site comes up top of the list. (not wanting to do the wrong thing I will not post the URL here) If you search within the site for anger, you will come upon a lot of helpful pages, one of which concerns overcoming blocks to anger.

I am just at the beginning of working with the tools and suggestions on the many pages I have looked at in this site, but I find them very useful as starting points for self-examination. I am also hopeful that I will be able to really begin to change some things if I actually do the work suggested.
