This is a Really Real Mental Health post.
Anger is uncomfortable.
I’m not good at it.
I’m good at rage.
So very good.
That feeling that bubbles up and explodes forth from my mouth.
Covering everyone around me.
And then,
it dissipates.
But anger is harder.
That anger when you have been wronged,
betrayed,
hurt.
The anger that needs time to work through.
Anger is uncomfortable.
And sometimes,
things can’t just be fixed.
Sometimes it takes time
Sometimes it takes a lot of processing.
And I never learned how to be okay with being angry.
It’s always been black or white.
I am angry and you will hear about it until it is fixed.
Or,
I am angry and I am done.
Now it’s,
I am angry,
but over time this will be okay.
I just haven’t learned what to do during that time.
How to be angry while still living a loving life.
Anger is just hard for me.
Anger is hard to sit with.
It’s hard to allow myself to be angry.
Anger just kind of sucks.
