I feel odd posting this. But here goes.

So many of us are suffering from repressed feelings, I was wondering what people have come up with that helps them express what they're feeling...

How do you vent anger? Frustration? Sadness?

This came up because of a conversation I had today about parents and how they react to temper tantrums.
"Time out! Go to your room! Don't come out until you've calmed down" - Is a common way to deal with a tantrum. (which is what my parents did)
That kind of attitude can teach a child that expressing anger and frustration, which are LEGITIMATE feelings, is a bad thing. Then when the child grows up, they often don't know how to express emotions. They are TAUGHT to repress them.

In ways like this we learn to repress, how do we learn to express?

Any thoughts?
