Anger is a way to protest…

  • A response to disempowerment
  • A sign our boundaries are being ignored or violated
  • A response to invalidation or unfair treatment
  • A response to disrespect
  • A part of the grief process
  • A sign of built-up resentment or unresolved emotions
  • A symptom of hyper vigilance and trauma
  • A sign that you may feel attacked, threatened, or deceived
  • A way to protest that we cannot control the reality around us

My favourite therapist taught me about the layers of emotion, and that beneath anger is often hurt. And that childhood trauma tends to be the root cause of our biggest issues. I also learned that it’s pretty tough to tackle deep baggage without professional help. Therapy is, at least for me, very safe, comforting, and anxiety reducing. It can really take the monkey off your back. Just sayin’ :) Hugs and good luck. XO
