Hi.
I'm sorry you're feeling so badly. One thing about your post struck me. I am always very tightly controlled with my feeling and emotions, but I understand now why, but I have an extremely difficult time showing anger, exploding, etc. My psychiatrist always explains that it would be OK to express these feelings, that I will feel better if I let them out. I used to think they would kill me if I did, but the truth is they can't kill--me or anyone else, so maybe you could let go a little and try to express these emotions so they don't control you so much?
I hope you feel better, and I'm glad you have a T who really understands. Maybe call her? Would that help?
The feelings will end, but it's almost impossible to believe when you are in the middle of them. Letting go is very hard. I meditate my own way, just laying down, findng my center, and telling myself to breathe and let each piece go, until the anger is gone. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Vent away. That's what we're here for.
