At shrinking yesterday, Craig told me he thinks I'm ready to go down to once a week from twice. He asked if I agree with that. Beats me. He pointed out that I haven't gotten in any fights in a long time. That I'm almost off PINS. I told Craig I don't care, once a week is fine. But don't think just because I don't get in fights anymore it doesn't mean I'm not angry anymore, because I am.
Craig said the key thing is that I'm not acting on my anger in ways that will get me in trouble. We talked about how enraged you can feel and then how later that rushing feeling has died down a little and you don't feel like breaking all the dishes and bashing someone's head against the sidewalk over and over anymore. Whatever. It's all so pointless. The only good thing is now I can tell work that I'm available another day and maybe I can get more hours.

I think Craig is right. Anger is a normal human feeling and you've had your unfair share of bad shit happen to you.
But you're handling it better. You're handling your anger and your other emotions in a more constructive way.
I think you should be proud of yourself and call this a promotion. :)
