Follow Up

I appreciate the comments I received on the last post.  I'm struggling right now because I'm hurting.  I haven't thought much about the anger and resentments that built up around my family since leaving home.  Now that I'm working my way through some of those emotions, I'm feeling frazzled.  I have some intense anger that is directed at my parents that I'm trying to wrap my brain around.

I'm trying to feel, rather than suppress.  That is a huge change in my way of dealing with emotions and it's taking some time to figure out.  I'm trying to be gentle with myself and work through this slowly.

I'm choosing to focus on my spiritual disciplines (meditation, my mantram/prayer, and spiritual reading).  These things help.

Thank you all for reading and I hope to share some of my experiences in more detail soon.  Typing them up for this blog is a huge part of my recovery and helps me to work through these issues.
