The World of Anger

"An arrogant man will be overcome with fear when he meets a powerful enemy." I talk about my transition issues in the context of Buddhist psychology.

Remember you have the control to change ANYTHING in your life.... Example, your gender... Relax... It sounds like you are playing some mental tapes that are not serving you... Think about what you want and all will be well...

hey cael.... congrats on the T date. i hear what you are saying in your video i felt this same anger up until i came out to my family. the response was positive and the anger turned into a kind of euphoria... i am sorry that you are feeling lonely. change is such a major thing and moving city is huge. i am really trying to reach out to people because my anxiety can make me isolate myself which then just exacerbates the anxiety. i hope you are able to find a way out of the world you are in...

Honestly, one step up that you have from the average angry person is that you are aware of why you are doing it, so kudos to you on that. it's hard to change things you don't want to be doing if you don't know why you are doing it in the first place.

You are definetly right about anger being not wanting to be vulnerable. Honestly, comedy or cracking a joke has always helped me out on that, it lets me express a bit of my vulnerability without feeling like I'm "admitting" anything to people.
