How are you healthily expressing rage right now?
I’ve been reading a lot about how stuffing emotions like sadness and anger manifest as chronic illness. Well I’ve had to stuff a lot and I’m tired (and now, surprise, also chronically ill).
I’m angrier about a lot of things these days: how much women have to deal with, how relationships/marriages are set up to benefit men and modern society hasn’t caught up to women’s evolving needs yet, injustice, needing more emotional support, female body changes and health stuff, issues related to being a POC, and irritation in general. I also wonder if I’m in perimenopause (but everyone keeps telling me there’s no way to test for that).
Once you start to notice oppression and injustice it’s hard not to see it everywhere but it’s also not healthy to only fixate on it I think either. How do you express your anger and get it out of your body in a healthy, cathartic way so you’re not carrying so much stuff around?
