Sorry , i missed replying to you. You seem to have touched something in me on this. I think its in your second paragraph about finding my voice in this and to speak up for what I need and want in life. Maybe that is why this has all come out here. Now I do need to figure things out. I am not sure that I want to deal with my family anymore. I just feel a set back if that happens. Seems like I just needed to vent it. Thanks for your point of view on things .

The anger that you have is there for a reason, much like the fear. It has served to protect that beautiful, soft, loving person inside of you.
Perhaps the anger is allowing you to find a voice and to speak up for what you need and want in your life. Perhaps it is there to teach you a lesson. Whatever the reason, it is a part of you, and IMHO should be honored.
I have found a very powerful way of facing my anger and fear is to thank it. I look forthe ways in my life it has served me, and feel true gratitude for the times it has protected me and helped me when I needed it. What is the proverbial 'silver lining' hiding within all those moments of pain?
Here's to releasing that burden and transformation!
