My old anger and P/A behavior have surfaced a bit here in the last week but the difference between now and before is that I now can recognize the "bad" behavior and instantly know how to correct it. I don't always DO it, but I know how and if there comes a time like this past Sunday when I act like an a$$, at least I know when to stop and how to apologize.




We all know my anger issues but like you I am starting to recognize them and deal with them properly. It's like I'm always looking for excuses to start an argument. For example this morning I wanted to drive by her apt. b/c she is supposed to take the kids tonight, yet she has been needing her "rest" so much that she's not sure she will be able to. My thinking is if she needed her rest, why is she staying over at the OM's house? So I was looking to get angry and start an argument.

I am learning to apologize little by little. I guess I want you to tell me that my pursuit of anger will subside if I continue practicing being more passive? Not a good day in the land of CM!

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
