MKAC: She had been pushing me for weeks to get in touch with my anger, which I resisted, so there was a slow burn and build up over those weeks and then she one day decided to switch to self-acceptance and was pressuring me to repeat positive affirmations. I snapped. Before I knew it, I pounded my fist into floor (which turned out to have concrete under the thin carpeting) and broke it. She said I should have asked for a pillow. But honestly, it caught me as much by surprise as it did her. I will never let myself be pressured into any emotion again.
