I was having a super great day. My husband came home.We arenāt getting along. Iām trying to hold my Shit together because I donāt want to fight in front of our daughter. Iām holding in so much anger I feel like Iām going to explode. Iāve tried removing myselfā¦my daughter knows we are upset. I want to slam a cupboard or kick a wall but I wonāt. I know it will upset everyone more. I think it all comes down to my husbands drinking. I can mostly handle it ok, but then I think Iām building up this resentment. Iām gonna have to look more at some of the threads about this or join a group. This anger and resentment is soooo bad for me and everyone around me. I just realized I posted on the wrong threadā¦ Sorry. I tried to move it. Oh boyā¦ Maybe itās a sign I should talk about what Iām grateful for-Iām grateful for sunshine. Iām grateful for the ocean. Iām grateful for breath. Iām grateful for my fur babies. Iām grateful to have a place to share and ventā:heart:-Iām grateful I did NOT slam a cupboard or kick a wall. Iām grateful I am in control of my emotions even if I canāt control others.oh and one moreā¦soooo grateful I havenāt even thought about drink even through all of this!!! Wow!! I just realized that!!! Amazing!!! Thank you allā:heart:
wow just wowā¦that! thank you for sharing this.
