In reply to out of control anger, posted by KB on February 20, 2002, at 10:54:04
Stressful situations like that are very bad for depression. It would certainly send me crashing, and I would too have to go try and pull it together. I have been working on this with my therapist- trying to learn calming exercises and meditation. I try to let go of things that I can't handle or "control". I think of my favorite place on the beach and try to picture myself there breathing slowly. I know that this sounds kind of simplistic; I'll try anything to keep from falling into that dark hole. O ther people can handle it because they don't have depression- stress will upset them, not push them over the edge. You have to try to let go of your anger.
