I can be angry at others, but it does take a lot. It is, however, much easier to be angry at myself. I beat myself up and punish myself every day, actually. My uni therapist hates that. She has, however, recognised the importance of it. "The most important thing - the thing you must do every day - is punish yourself." And she's right; it feels wrong not to do it. So she wants me to be angry at literally anything else at this point.
