Hi Evangelista,

I know sometimes with me, things have gotten worse before it has gotten better. Anger has been a hard issue for me to work on, too. I also think it is helpful to talk with your T about the situation. If you are not feeling safe about the pace of the work you are doing in counseling, and it is too overwhelming, then I hope you can talk with your T about it. They should be able to help work with you to slow the pace of counseling a bit, and do some things to help calm the situation a bit too. You can still work on anger, and maybe not push as hard. Or maybe take some breaks periodically, both in your sessions and inbetween - that can provide some help. There are ways to be gentler in working on it. My counselor helped me learn about that...it is really possible.

Take care,
ErinBear
