A punching bag is a good idea! I have one in the garage.

The thing is, that there will always be more bad things. Bad things will always happen to you, and around you, for the rest of your life, no matter what you do.

There are some things that can be avoided. Being as healthy as you, personally, can be, as well as surrounding yourself with other healthy people will help you avoid a lot.

But there will always be some things you can do absolutely nothing to avoid or prevent. The thing you can do, is to learn to deal with them in a healthy fashion. That includes not letting them overshadow all the great things that also happen. It also includes letting yourself be angry about them when you need to, too.

So go ahead and be angry. You can rant and complain here all you want, scream your head off (I think in the car is a good place for this, but not while driving) punch your mattress or a couch cushion, whatever you need to do to get it out.

I hope you'll start feeling better soon.
