It sounds like you have come a long way. Good for you for seeking help when you had to and for getting as far as you have. This is a big achievement which you should be very proud of! What qualities within yourself do you think helped you through this?

It was my anger that started me on the road to recovery, again. I took a sabatical for a few years while caring for family. I had two major outbursts that I couldn't control within this past year. The lesser outbursts I would justify my 'attitude' (underlying anger filled with frustration/impatience and fear/depression) by saying I was originally from NY, that's how we are (aggressive)! It was the last hugh outburst that scared me into going to a psychiatrist and placed on meds. I was then able to sort out what it was that was going on and face it head on. Really, I had no other choice. I would have been headed to total distruction if I didn't. (too much to write about details). Now if something bothers me, I can handle it by using 'honey' - can't think of the expression.
off topic - what are the butterflies or birds for along side your pictures ?
Sudden anger is unpleasant and scary. Members and family alike feel helpless for a little while, amazed (and maybe fearful) at what is happening, at how easy anger rises. It can take a couple of weeks and maybe one memorable outburst to really alert you to stop and take an inventory of sorts. As soon as you can, develop adequate strategies. It may take a while to get everything right, but everyone has to begin somewhere.
Using the program tool and guidelines can assist you in challenging those anger emotions and knowledge can help you better prepare yourself for those situations that you know can and will arise.
