How do you personally deal with anger, frustrations and bitterness about life in general?

[muscularbumblebee]

Due to certain childhood events, growing up pretty lonely and having certain issues has now led me to be very bitter, full of anger and frustrated with life as well as untrusting.

How do those who relate with these feelings tend to deal with them? Besides obvious therapy which I’ve tried and gym seems to be the only helping thing.

Those who also feel this way, what has led you to feel these as an adult?

Being there after insane toxic relationship. You're not alone. I found i should leave whatever bring this feeling or whatever thing that renew it. Long walks in nature i believe nature can highly help in healing such things, hobbies and talking to real friends. The most effective thing was praying and asking to find peace I also found its helpful to see things in different vision like sometimes losing something is just the beginning to find something better. I wish you the best.
I can dm you if you want to talk

Well I just did gym on crack. Like gym + tons of other sports. So much that I was just outside my head constantly. Over the long term it had a really calming effect on me.

And then because I was more calm and 'me' again, I made friends easier and went out more and sort of eased off on the sportsfreak lifestyle.

I hear ya, I feel ya, and I most certainly can relate.

I deal with mine on a case-by-case basis. So, for example, if I keep getting reminded of a moment where someone made me feel emasculated ( yes, women can feel emasculated too.) and violated my boundaries. And the intrusive memory keeps popping up. I seal it by just getting up, imagining what I wish I would have said to them, and start punching the air wildly. Then I laugh at how silly I must look and go back to doing whatever I was doing. Of course, I only do that in the comfort of my own home.

Other times, I just let myself feel whatever emotion it is, whether bitterness, lingering frustration, or anger. Then comfort myself by saying things to myself in my mind, such as, " Yeah, that was dick move for them to do." or "we didn't know any better back then, so why shame ourselves for that?" " Our heart was in the right place and hoped there's was too, but it wasn't, so don't blame yourself," I say, a variation of one of those AFTER I allow the frustration to pass. Since I realized for me when I have them, it generally stems from my inner child or just past self wanting to have space to have their frustrations and all the related emotions to it, heard and be comforted Like I wasn't able to in the past or adequately as a child.

Ephesians 2:8-10: For it is by Grace you are saved.-through faith and this is not from yourselves, it is a gift of God.-Not by works so no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created In Christ Jesus to do good works that have been prepared in advance for us to do.

Ephesians 4:31-32
Let all bitterness and wrath, and anger clamor and slander be put away from you along with malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, and forgiving one another as God, In Christ forgave you.

Leaving Shame and Guilt at Cross.
The book flows and accounts the struggles of Beings.

Heal. Let go of that past.
Apparantly your still living in it. Holding grudges and hatred and whatever. Let that go. Make peace with your past. Treat them as lessons. Learn from them and be better. You're alive, don't waste another second negatively. Peace.
You can do this.

It'll just be one of those answers that are easier said than done. Therapy, most likely Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. They'll work through past traumas and triggers. Where most people fail is because everyone wants to be "fixed" in a small windoe of time, and that isn't reality

Find something that can make you laugh quite loudly. Laughter and then a bolstering of your conviction will give you enough mental energy to burn for awhile until you need more rest.

Take a walk out the family house in he freezing cold with only pajama bottoms and a thin jacket at night when I’m pissed off.

Hold myself accountable for the anger and disappointment I feel. Learn from it and move on
