Angry Frustration

Ever had times of extreme frustration, anger? It's so difficult to handle those emotions. I should be sleeping, not doing this... but, grrrr. It's been one of those lives.

Welcome to SR!

I am sorry to see you are distressed.

Have you tried to pray about the situation?

I find writing about my problems to be a
way to clear my mind.

Also..soothing music..a warm bath/shower..a
long walk
all of these have helped me.

Blessings

I can relate to what your describing. Ive been on that same ride. Like Carol, I too find some relief in writting about my issues. Personally that is my biggest release of frustration, my writting.

Also talking about whatever is frustrating you might help. Find someone you can confide in and let your frustrations roll of the tip of your tounge. Maybe youll feel better once you've vented about it a bit.

Hope you feel better soon.

Have you read Tink's thread up above this? I thought it was worthwhile copying here...I do hope Tink won't mind...and, maybe it will give you some comfort.

Let it go!

There are people in life who will walk away from you....

And hear me when I tell you this! When people walk
away from you: let them walk.


I don't want you to try to talk another person into
staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you.


When people walk away from you, let them walk.
Your destiny is and never was tied to anybody that left you.

People leave you because they are not joined to you.
And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay.

Let them go.


And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person... it just
means that their part in the story of your life is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.

You've got to know when it's dead.

You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you
something.... I've got the gift of good-bye. I believe in good-bye. And It's not that I'm hateful, or enjoy cutting certain things, people or relationships out of my life, it's the fact that I believe whatever God/Karma/Destiny intends for me to have in this life, I'll have it! It will be given to me. Whatever relationships are supposed to be healed or mended, they will be mended. And if its not working out that way, then I don't need it.

Let them go!!

If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong
to you or was never intended for your life, then you need to......

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to past hurts and pains .....

LET IT GO!!!

If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth.....

LET THEM GO!!!

If someone has angered you ........

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge......

LET IT GO!!!

If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction......

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents ...

LET IT GO!!!

If you have a bad attitude!.......

LET IT GO!!!

If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better......

LET IT GO!!!


If you are struggling with the healing of a broken
relationship.......

LET IT GO!!!

If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try
to help themselves......

LET THEM GO!!!

If you're feeling depressed and stressed ........

LET IT GO!!!


Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. Don't be afraid to say goodbye to certain things or people and...


LET IT GO!!!
