It is a well-documented fact /theory that anger is one of the steps of healing from trauma and loss.
It is part of the grief Process.
Grief after the death of a loved one.
Grief for the demise of your marriage.
Grief for the loss of the job or career,
Grief for the breaking of trust.
LET ME TELL YOU MY STORY.
More than 6 years ago I was angry and grieving because after 30 years of marriage, I was alone. I was sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.
I wanted to be FULLY FUNCTIONAL and I wanted my family to be a FUNCTIONAL FAMILY
I tried, many years, for deep connection and trust.
And eventually, I realized that I was never going to be understood and loved the way I needed to be . So, I gave up. I distanced myself.
And after a while, I came to a point where the holidays to exotic places, the promises of cars and the beautiful home in which we lived, were not enough to fill the void in my heart.
I had to start again.
Over the previous 30 years, I engaged people in my drama. I’d complain about how things were and I’d never do anything about the situation. I thought I had no power.
And once I left. I continued to engage others in my drama. I didn’t move on. I didn’t become functional, I didn’t take responsibility I continued to blame others. I continued to talk to well-meaning friends and loved ones and counselors. I wasn’t getting anywhere. I was angry at the circumstance. I was angry at my ex. I was angry at life. And I was getting myself into a cycle of not doing anything about it. Wanting to justify my position.
Then I discovered coaching. I discovered that in order to become truly happy I needed to become FULLY FUNCTIONAL which meant I needed to take full responsibility for every decision I had made in my adult life.
I then became terrified that everything that had happened was my fault. No! I was reassured. “Taking responsibility is not about Fault. It is about being an adult and making changes.” After a while, I realized that if I didn’t start driving my own bus, I was going to end up, repeating the past.
I became focused on working on the conditioning of the past and the way I looked at my world. I changed the way I thought about myself. I realized that I am WORTHY, LOVEABLE, and ENOUGH just the way I am.
I learned that I can only love others as much as I love myself.
Now I love myself. And I am loved. I’m empowered to make my own decisions. I’m empowered to make my own mistakes and grow just a little bit every day.
BECOME FULLY FUNCTIONAL and Live with ACCEPTANCE CALM RESPONSIBILITY BELONGING & LOVE
