The breaking stuff to release anger really helped. I broke stuff at my local recycling center while naming every thing I was angry about. I did this for weeks. I still go and crush cans from time to time when I'm not sure why I feel certain things or my stress level gets too much to deal with. My T helped me learn to focus on my current and future happiness and not my past emotional trauma with color therapy. Its really helped me work through my ptsd.

Besides venting, what do you do to relieve stress and release your feelings?

Your question, it would be useful to me too to improve on that lol. I used to be able to just "cleanly" act out anger (no extreme negativity, no leftovers, the whole issue would be forgotten quick), but then I had too much s**t ongoing and yeah...well it's no longer that simple. Because now I also have ptsd (cptsd).


So anyway with you breaking things, did you get permission for that at that recycling centre or what was this? An intentional part of your therapy? Or something you accidentally ran into? I'm very interested.
Thanks for this!
