In reply to Why do I feel so angry now?, posted by lemonaide on October 1, 2008, at 12:27:55
Well, I think you have obviously been strongly triggered.
It's almost as though you had two t's that hurt you in two separate ways: one by his action, one by his inability to act.
You obviously valued both therapists.
Love, anger, disappointment, hurt - those emotions all seem to be so intertwined in your situation.
Anger usually gets the most airtime because it is, I think, the easiest one to express. It's also the most protective.
Personally, I would much rather be royally pissed off rather than hurt.
Anger also gets heard. It definately gets attention, whereas disappointment and hurt tend to be quieter, yet are infinitely so much more powerful.
I hear them all - the love, the hurt, the disappointment and the anger in your posts and in your experiences.
It's tough stuff and I understand. I hear you.
My hope right now is that, in the middle of this swirl, there is something in which you can find some peace, and something that re-connects you with the love.
I suspect it might be the guinea pigs...
Squeak!
Take good good care.
Seldom.
