Second verse same as the first.

Everyone here goes through the same things but may not say it. My therapist was glad that i talked obout acceptance. Yda Yda Yda. Mkae sure you take care of yourself. I spent the first number of years being #?*% off. I regret that time because my family lost alot of me.

Hi Megatron,

The turmoil is not in the event but in our reaction to it. -Author is unknown to me.

Bob.

Anger is viewed as a socially acceptable emotion for men, more so than sadness or helplessness. It is possible that these other emotions/feelings are manifesting as anger. Family members are often the target of outbursts as it is "safer" to loose control with them rather than in the workplace.

Tate, I had a similar reaction to my injury. I knew that I had not done enough to prevent it (by not wearing a seatbelt), and I was 46 & didn't feel "cheated" out of too many of life's experiences. I missed some of things I could no longer do and got sad or frustrated at times; but kept in mind the rehab advice of concentrating on the things I could still do (mostly).

Hello Megatron, First I want to say that I'm glad because you're seeking help. Second, is acceptance. It is important stage. You know acceptance is not an easy thing because it is process. Then, you learn to be more relax and control your emotion. I know it is hard to do it. But, we both know that if we allow our anger, pissed emotion overcome us mostly we unintentionally hurt the people we love. We unintentional say words that will really hurt them. So, when I know that I'm pissed or disgusted or angry I choose to be quiet and pray to God to help me overcome with those negative emotions I had whomever the person caused of my negative emotion. Then, when I know I'm okay I talk with calmness tone to the person involve.

IMO Nothing wrong with being angry, why should you not be? Just don't take it out on those who love you and care about you. Save it for the scumbags, assholes, douchebags, who crosses the path you wheel on and just unleash some verbal ass beating on them. Nothing wrong with that.
I do not subscribe to the all popular notion of letting go, forgiving, and all that kombaja nonsense. Anger can be a great motivator. The main thing is to focus on learning how to wield the force.
