Family conflict and chronic inner pain have me tied up in knots. I seem to have turned things in on myself. Anger and frustration that things are not the way I would want them to be. I want loving, kind, caring and feel frustrated that although I have tried to be there is still turmoil coming at me and around me and it builds and creates all this pain and tension in me. I get some encouragement from my counselor and before the day is out some drama is causing even greater pain. It hurts and my efforts end up wounded and the pain increased.
