CHANTRESS Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Relationships end every day. Some mutually, some against their wishes..either way, someone gets hurt. Some fatally. A law was passed recently in Florida after the brutal murder of a college student who had broken up with her boyfriend. Gov. Crist To Sign New Domestic Violence Bill - Orlando News Story - WESH Orlando It makes me wonder if this kid had an outlet for is anger would it have mattered? I think a site like this one is great for someone going through a breakup. How does someone get to this boiling point? Are some people just predisposed to not ever being able to "let go?" Would this guy have been like this in ALL of his relationships? he was so young....it seems the possibility was there for him to have a history of stalking and harrassment. Anyway... I think it would be more effective to teach people HOW to cope with emotions after a breakup because it does not seem to be something that just comes "naturally" to anyone and many times people feel like they have no other option to kill the pain, other than kill the source of the pain, or kill themselves. What do you all think?
confused and broken Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 I used to have anger issues until I decided to get help to deal with my anger... now that I know how to deal with my anger I am no longer angry.. funny how that works... But I am sad and I don't know how to deal with that... I wonder if sadness is more difficult to deal with than anger??
Author CHANTRESS Posted July 8, 2008 Author Posted July 8, 2008 It's OK to be angry..so as long as it is vented constructively. Sadness or depression is actually anger turned inward.So rather than projecting your anger, you are actually punishing YOURSELF.Still a form of anger however. For me..I work out...really hard. I over extert myself physically...and I cry sometimes. The release is good for you. As long as you are getting it out productively, you'll be fine..
confused and broken Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 I want to cry. but if I do the next day when I have to go to work my eyes are sooo red and puffy it's embarrassing... For some reason I thought anger was sadness gone extreme... So instead of being angry at something external...I am just taking it out on myself??
