.

Yes this could be good. I think this is the best way to go about things because then we can discuss it and figure it out with me staying in the room. Thanks!

I have tried this but then I explode like a nuclear bomb! Heheh

Is pillow-punching allowed?

I've thought of taking his ***** off of his shelves and starting to build something. Alarming, yet not threatening!

Something I've just thought of. I don't know if this would work.

But what about working off your aggression at the gym before your appointment?

Yes, a much more constructive response that mine! I relate to the anger too much.

Pillow punching doesn't work because the pillow doesn't scream back at me, lol, sounds lame but true. I need some sort of feedback for that to work hehe

Nahh physical stuff doesn't touch the anger.

I wonder if there would be a market for a screaming pillow?

But they'd probably throw you out if you used it.

That would be cool. If they put a little box inside the pillow so that if there is pressure on it, it plays a sound (like "nooo stop it!") or something, haha. That would probably work for me, now that I think of it
