Many years ago there was a belief by some that the so-called 'bad' parts should be banished or got rid of. The thing is that the so-called 'bad' parts aren't actually 'bad' at all, they are infact usually very scared and frightened parts. The 'angry' parts have a function, they are needed within the system. The angry parts need to be nurtured, just like all the rest of you.

A good therapist will help you to allow that angry part to have a voice, feel safe and be part of all of you.

I'm so sorry that someone said a part of you was satan or tried to banish that part. Depending on the age of the angry part(s) various things can help to gradually allow those parts some freedom and safety.

PM anytime if you need to discuss further.
