"Anger is actually a healthy emotion, BUT
When it affects your life negatively
When it affects your ability to function
When it affects your judgment
That"s when it"s time to ask for help.
It"s hard to admit when you need support and even harder when the help you need is to deal with emotions and how you feel. Men are expected to be strong, capable, competent. That means you"re supposed to be able to handle everything on your own and simply recalculate if things aren"t going the way they should. The problem is, that"s what you"ve been doing handling it all on your own. And the relentless cycle of eruption, shame, and self-hatred keeps happening, over and over. And the only change is the growing exhaustion.
It"s not always easy, but living in this cycle isn"t easy either."
