Discussion Anger

[Ferret77]

I'm sorry, but can we please talk about the disturbing rage "broken" people feel?
Or is it just me?
I'm a shy introverted quiet person, so I think no one would expect this from me. I would never hurt anyone, but I definitely do get not just self destructive thoughts, but also pretty violent thoughts. I feel like people like us are only looked at as fragile and weak, but in reality, since we've been through so much pain, of course we're angry. I'm so angry. Do you have any idea how many times someone should have helped me?
I repeat, I would never hurt anyone in my life. But still.... It's a very real and common thing to experience sadly.
What do you think?

Rage is my primary emotion. Misdiagnosed with severe spinal disease until it was too late. Violent thoughts are commonplace.

Rage is exactly what sent me to psych ward.

My parents forced me into this life and sometimes I just want to make them feel bad for their decission. Now I understand clearly that they just wanted the best for me but that doesn't mean it is not wrong.

I feel the very same. Disturbing rage. I am also very introverted, shy, antisocial. I have intrusive thoughts. I would never hurt anyone but myself though. I keep my rage to myself

When I feel rage I drive really fast, hit my pillow and scream, or scream really loud in the car. It helps to get it out without hurting anyone.

I'm angry most of the time, and I've hurt people a few ways because of it. I'm much more mellow now than I was years ago, and never did I think anyone "should" help me. Intrusive deluded well-meaners would have really pissed me off. Lol.

anger is my most immediate coping mechanism to disturbing situations, and only because it's not directed inwards
when i can't reason with my overwhelming emotions, rage is the only one that can counterbalance it
it helps me so much
people ask me to be "rational", i am, but my mind doesn't speak the same language my heart does
i can't talk myself out of feeling guilty, worthless, but anger can overshadow it
i'm thankful for it

I'm often angry. I see all this suffering and am too powerless to stop it, it's deeply frustrating.

I personally just feel tired of everything instead but to me it's really understandable as to why someone would feel anger in this world filled with senseless cruelty and unnecessary suffering, it's horrible how people suffer all through no fault of their own, existence really is so hellish.
