Anger gets a bad press, says Philippa Perry, but it’s OK to give vent | Ask Philippa
‘Shout! I went into a field and yelled at an innocent tree once, the tree didn’t mind and it really helped’: Philippa Perry.‘Shout! I went into a field and yelled at an innocent tree once, the tree didn’t mind and it really helped’: Philippa Perry.My six-year marriage came to an end after my ex-wife started an affair. At couples counselling I learnmy wife began getting attention from a few of the school dads.
The anger I feel is essentially a tantrum at not having things my own way. And that thought appals me, so I suppress it. How do you deal with unresolved anger that you feel guilty about feeling, let alone show it?Anger equals “bad” for you it seems. You use the word “tantrum”, which is equating anger with childishness, lack of impulse control or over-entitlement. Anger has got a bad press. But it isn’t the feeling that is bad.
You have your anger in a metaphorical box and you are firmly sitting on the lid. You may fear if you took the lid off it would explode. In addition to this you don’t feel great; it sounds as if it may be eating you up from the inside. You are going to have to help yourself by letting it out a bit at a time.
