Does anyone feel bitter towards their past? I'm amazed by how much this emotion has popped up since I started therapy over a year ago. I suppose because I'm talking about it so much (even though that's not what brought me to therapy).

Just talking about it, thinking about it, makes me feel angry...bitter...at the thought of the life I wanted, but never had. My T says it was my birthright, it's everyone's birthright to be born into loving, respectful homes. I honestly don't like dwelling on my past, but she says it's important to move on. So, I talk about it....but has made me a pretty bitter person.
