sweetie, you're doing anger now. WELL DONE!!!! (is there a hi-five smiley here?)

the next step is to just sit with it and let it feel ok. i kind of enjoy anger (sometimes - when it's not too overwhelming). it makes me feel some sort of power, like i'm standing up for myself, or thinking i'm have some sort of self worth to feel anger over (if i didnt have worth, then someone hurting me wouldn't make me feel angry). i see it as progress that i can feel it, and just sit with it. it feels nice (again, only if i feel like it's not going to consume me).

i wonder what is scary for you about anger? it's not going to hurt you - it's just an emotion. are you worried you will do something with it? that someone will hurt you because of it? what bad thing is going to happen if you just let yourself feel it? is anything bad happening now?
Thanks for this!
