So... I came on this thread because I have underlying anger issues... when something makes me angry... I take it in. Sort of like sucking it up with no where to release it and it festers for future use. I recently started going to therapy for my anxiety and turns out I have abandonment issues along with these anger issues and not to mention low self-esteem. So now I'm trying to figure WHO I am and why am I so angry about it and why don't I like the current person I am... It sounds confusing just thinking about it... thing is... I need to motivate myself to WANT to change. To want to gain more confidence... and it's just so hard when I don't think much of myself. I could take me or leave me. And I don't want to play the woe is me card... but I was told I need to focus on myself and that's what I'm here to do. Trying to find different coping techniques to calm my anger, face it and move on... also to gain confidence (somehow... I don't know where to start).

I just wanted to express myself because I'm new here and I thought this forum can at least help me release these thoughts running around in my head.
