So, Sunny, are you saying you can only get angry of the event was intentionally directed at you? Could you get angry if there was a thunderstorm and lightening hit your house? Could you get angry if you slipped on the ice and broke your ankle? Hmmm
Why aren't you be angry at your husband? I think it's worth exploring, you might be surprised at what you come up with. Mind you, most of my anger is still way down deep.

This comment really made me think. I was about to reply that I feel just like Sunny....I don't get angry when my T is out of town. I am disapointed and lonely and wish I could talk to her, but never angry. I guess I was thinking that I would only be angry if someone intentionally hurts me, but now I need to think about this some more.
I rarely express my anger, it builds up inside me and turns into anxiety and other things. I think then I just ride it out until I can suppress it and distract myself with something else (I know, very healthy). I think my T is beginning to try to get me to be angry, but I don't have any experience with being angry successfully, so it seems like if I get angry I don't know what good would come out of it.
