Anger is a universal emotion, designed to give us much-needed information. There are many helpful ways to think about this common emotion; one stands out to me today. Facilitating a support group whose focus was 'Exploring Anger’ last Fall, we discussed how anger can be an indication that one of your boundaries is being tested or violated.
Are you feeling anger (or it’s other faces: frustration, resentment, and hatred)? What events have preceded the feeling? How does the anger feel? Where is it? What does it tell you about your needs? If the anger wants something, is that thing a boundary? Is the boundary within yourself, or within a relationship with someone else? If you have taken an action, like setting a boundary, check back in with yourself. How do you feel now?
