Thanks for the thought provoking post. I'm with Lilly...I've spent my whole life swallowing anger and there is a saying that depressionn is anger turned inwards. I think it depends on how you do anger...whether you let it consume you or purify you. I also agree with Lilly that if you were an angry drunk. Maybe your sobriety would greatly benefit from letting anger go.
As for being angry at alcohol...I don't want to give alcohol that much power...anger is a strrong emotion and I don't want to waste that energy on alcohol. I am ok with anger at the whole drinking culture...not for myself but for all the other lives it damages and continues to damage every day. I am close to all my friends kids...statistically a couple of them will end up alcoholics...that makes me angry.
As long as you deal with anger in a healthy manner though I don't think its a problem :-) you mention spite too...I don't see any benefit in that emotion
