[quote=Anonymous]Agree with everyone that therapy and time help. I also find self-help books genuinely helpful, as well as journaling to just process the feelings. But I do want to note one thing I've found to be true: I have to let my anger go multiple times. It's sort of circular instead of linear. I'll do some therapy and get to a place of release and moving forward and feel better. And then at some point, usually a year or more, I'll feel this surge of anger come back. And I have to go process it again and work through it again. I have not found that it's ever gone for good. HOWEVER, you get better at processing and letting it go each time, and I've also found the anger is, not exactly less intense, but less impactful towards my life. I can think about it and feel an intense surge of anger, but I can move on from it more quickly and contextualize it, without it taking up so much of my headspace or bringing me down.[/quote]
