@Lyubov I enjoy your emphasis on responsibility. And I think it is an excellent point that rationalisation and simply explaining mechanisms behind why & how we might feel anger is not enough. It is very easy to slide into justification from rationalisation in this way. We explain the mechanism, and can fall into explaining away responsibility. When we add responsibility back into the mix, we gain clarity around the boundaries of where we create our emotional experience, and consequentially are better able to embody agency. That agency is required to change our relationship to how we respond to feelings. Affecting that relationship is key to reducing reactivity and being able to sit comfortably with intense experiences of emotion. Cheers for the insight

Nothing wrong with anger. Lots wrong with suppression! I find most people who suffer from depression (the non-clinical chemical type) often have deeply repressed anger. Anger is a healthy forward moving energy. Expression through healthy processing is very good for the body. Unprocessed anger looks like someone acting out the emotion with no ability to stop it; they are overtaken by it and have an irresistible compulsion to act. Healthy, processed anger is recognised and felt fully, but we aren't overcome so much that we need to act on it. Although, expression can help! Having our emotions AT others is not self regulated. Emotional repression has consequences. Glad you are doing better 🙏🏻

@LordFall definitely jump into Ralston's work - it will assist with the distinction between pain and suffering -

It prohibited me from posting that! Either the word or sentence triggered some filter I have never encountered before. -

@LordFall have you studied Peter Ralston's work? -
@something_else @Ulax I think you guys both have relevant experience that might apply here (if I recall posts correctly!)

In the words of Ralston "You are doing it! Stop doing it!" >.< -

@LordFall You are misunderstanding again. But it seems wilfully so? -

This really comes across like a bad faith, uncharitable position to take regarding arguments. -

Anyway what I am seeing is you consistently misunderstanding what others mean - either through others failure to express properly or your own interpretation. Doesn't matter. But that is what is happening here. And everywhere in almost all of your misunderstandings on the forum. If you want to still address things in the way you do - so be it. Your assumptions are really shooting you in the foot.
