Core, there are good resources out there on validating your own feelings... check out self-compassion. It has helped me deal with my anxiety in particular.

I've felt the same way as you... fighting off anger and frustration because they are "bad" emotions. They are part of the full range of human emotions. It's okay to feel that way. They become problematic when we act out because of those emotions.

Along the way, on your journey of emotional growth, you will probably start to see your MR from new angles -- sometimes we talk about the rose-colored glasses and the gray-colored glasses. It's part of correcting course to the point where we can start to see things clearly, without a new set of clear lenses.
