Any other ladies?

I'm sad and glad there are others. If anyone doesn't know, youtube has an excellent instructional on how to fix holes in hollow doors.

That's always a good thing to know token451. I'm sure there must be something there for holes in the drywall as well.

I have struggled with anger since adolescence but I do think that anger is an appropriate feeling and response sometimes just society has historically preferred not to accept it from women.
I have had anger rages too many times but feel the medication has dulled it over the last few years. It still arises unfortunately with family conflict and PMS.
I'd really like to communicate more calmly and assertively each day

Yeah (though I don't have one at the handy). Have to say that when I did it, it was pleasing to discover a hidden talent. Lol. It was an apartment so we didn't have the paint to finish it off. Even so, you couldn't tell unless you worked at getting the light to hit it just right. (The wall's being white was handy though, of course. )

I think so too, and suspect it actually contributes to the ferocity. Things get bottled up. Big time.

Interesting... I just posted an entire post on how angry I have been lately. I tend to not get violent but if it doesn't pass, I tend to start thinking about self harm. When I get angry, I tend to go down deeper into myself and withdraw.

I am the same way when I get really angry and lose it. The hole gets deeper and I withdraw from everything. It doesn't happen as often now with the meds but it still happens often enough that I don't trust myself around others.
I'm not looking forward to the Christmas thing with hubbie's family.
