Journal was good for me too to write down all of my anger! (
"Book of Anger" I like that LaTee)
And I still do it when I have a not so good day-even know
the A is out of my life I still have "not so good days" it helps me to keep my life
going in the right direction.
When I was with my XABF I would go to the gym and work out like crazy, go for a drive and scream,
cry do whatever I needed to do to let it out! Of course my counselor was a good one to get
the brunt of my venting too!
Today...I still go to the gym-Al-Anon, SR, hang with friends, do things i enjoy-alone or
with friends and get involved with my little part time business-these are things that keep
me grounded today!
Today ...when my A brother (who is in seriously bad shape) calls and tells me things like he did the
other night "I cannot stop drinking I do not know how-so I think I will drink myself to death" I can
actually shed a few tears and say what I need to him calmly and continue on ....
And that I owe to my HP, Counseling, Al-Anon and many people here at SR! It takes time but it can happen!
Good Luck to you and keep posting!
