I'm sorry you're feeling so angry. It really sucks, doesn't it? Somehow feels more overwhelming and out-of-control than other emotions.
I'm stuck in the middle of anger, too. Only, I know exactly why I'm angry and I need to decide whether it makes sense to tell the person, even though I know it will cause them pain while not really changing anything. Doesn't seem to be worth it, does it?
Anyway, it did help some to write it out. I'm not sure it'll keep it at bay for the long run, but it did help ease the out-of-control feeling and dried up the tears a little.
Have you managed to make that blank page dirty? Sometimes it helps me to scribble a little first. If the page looks messy, it somehow feels like the words that go on it aren't quite as important....and that takes the pressure off and helps me get going.
