[QUOTE="Christoph1945, post: 4102062, member: 42426"] Very often, long held and suppressed or repressed anger leads us onto the slippery slope of depression/anxiety; even anger at our selves! It don't do the blood pressure much good either. Been there, done that, and paid the price of a ticket to darkness. I understand, perhaps falsely, that students of kabbalah see nothing as being good or bad but only as we see them so. Their aim is to resist reacting to life events and respond proactively to them. I suppose that it is rather like the Christian concept of turning the other cheek, or going the extra mile. Far easier said than done though. As for me; I have discovered that alcohol, caffeine, gluten and some food additives make it more difficult to not instantaneously react and respond proactively. all a bit like toting round a loaded twelve bore with a hair trigger and no safety. First jolt and somebody gets both barrels or I shoot my self in the foot! But then that's my old soapbox again and you have all heard it before. There is no shame in breaking a leg but I would be highly embarrassed at having run over it with my own car! I remember being told of a guy who drained his petrol tank into a large open tray in his garage and it took fire. The fire moved to the house where he had gas canisters in the loft. As the fireman tried to console him in his total anguish, he said................"you don't understand; I'm a safety officer"! Don't let embarrassment put you off seeking help and advice; there is plenty out here. [/QUOTE]
