This is absolutely true. People pick up on clues and can instinctively tell if you’re a person they can fuck with or not. As I worked more and more on my boundaries, I noticed that a slight change in tone of voice of expression on my part now would immediately convey to most people that I’m not to be fucked with. And I used to be a giant pushover.

When you are dependent and can't fend for yourself you're not allowed to be angry. I remember the first time I rented a room and paid rent for it. Most of my money was gone but it was such a good feeling to know that I couldn't be thrown out just because I didn't have the right look on my face or allow someone to say abusive things to me. (With a smile on her face and a laugh - like my mother and sister did.)

I used to be a person who didn’t know how to deal with my anger. I either suppressed it or lost control of it. And since I started my healing process, I began to face my anger more honestly though deep down I still saw it as an ugly emotion. Nevertheless, what I also realized was my anger disclosed parts of my true self little by little. They are versions of me that have been abandoned for too long. Now, I am learning to use my anger as a motive for pushing forward. Anger will not be a monster as long as we know how to work with it. That’s my personal experience.

Thank you Daniel, this is great. When I encounter historical anger, one of the ways I process it is to imagine my boundary all around me (eggshell shape) and that the rage coming out is pouring directly into that boundary, healing it and strengthening it and repairing it. Then the anger is not inside me anymore, but also not going out and hurting anyone else. It's at the appropriate place - the boundary that was violated in the past. This makes that old anger very manageable and it feels SO satisfying to do this practice. I learned this from Karla McLaren with her work around emotions.

What about when it needs to come out, to defend yourself, or indeed others?
@destroyraiden10 ай бұрын
@@springwood1331I find if I want to defend others if I can stop a moment and look at myself what is going on is that the violation that person A is doing on person B are knocking up against my own internal wound of similar violation or it's fear from my past when no one stood up for me this allows me to then look back at that situation is it indeed a violation, should I interfear & if so how so as me truama dumping my old rage into the mix doesn't help person B. So how can I constructively aid person B and do they want me to? Would me doing so actually help them or not? Cuz sometimes person B needs to work out the altercation solo learning to navigate discord, other times person A was told prior the boundary is don't nag this person if person A is nagging this person then I can come in tell person A "The boundary is no nag you're nagging leave person B alone" Person A hates when I get involved on these matters so it chases them off. Either way if you are standing up for yourself or another you want to find the heart of the matter or the pinch point. Yet you want to make sure you have the right pinch point/heart matter you don't want to use your own inner pinch point to tell off person A when really the pinch point for person B is actually problem issue T. If you don't know the person or can't sense what is the T your aid can be limited or else make it all worse and either you & person B are in dual protection mode or else your now the bad guy full sail. If you want to be that bad guy and derail the whole affair onto you and up your scapegoat points you can do so as long as you can take the hits in the moment and the future ones what will just keep giving. As what I've experienced if I go into the defend of another and i'm now the new target if I cast castle of steel and stand there and keep allowing the person A to vocally wail on me this grants me no boon from person B all it does is makes the entire environment hate me now and forever they add it to my personal score card of I'm the problem and now I have a new mark on the card they can keep as reasons why I'm the problem & they all hate me as I'm their scape goat. And person B can't thank me or help me in most cases later on as they need those people I know they can't return any favors I do. Assessing the right violation point will drive the person A away fast yet you may not get any additional support you're still swinging alone out there & you need to keep your anger out, do not let any of their words or accusations phase you which I've noticed is effortless if you've healed that pinch/pain point within yourself if not you'll struggle or fail, your job is to point out the pain point, tell them it's wrong or not ok, and get out not wage war, not go down a list of charges, not run off into a history lesson, not unpack bags, if you're standing up for yourself you can add in they need to apologize to you or amend like this yet if they refuse don't give chase, take notes instead this person is unsafe, untrustworthy, toxic, whatever and stop arguing and defending they're showing you who they are, what you mean or don't mean to them, and how they value or don't value you.

It is interesting when you talk about the mixed anger. I have had coworkers who I know had been bullied or I think have been bullied and they would sometimes have what I thought were total overreactions when they felt talked down to, when that was not the case or intention of anybody. They would read some hidden insults into what was said or if you told them something like you were busy and couldn't talk, they would take that as "shut up you are not important". I can understand how that would come from having been bullied. Having been talked down to, having passive-aggressive and toxic pokes at you and so on, that you would think it was happening again when it really wasn't. Fortunately, it was possible to clarify that no such aggression was meant and move on from it in these cases.

It's like lancing a pustule, an abscess, and draining the abandonment wound.

This is insightful & helpful. I occasionally struggle with anger. It’s a feeling I do my best to avoid at all costs. From time to time, I used to see it as evil, & I did everything I could to smash it from trying to exist in myself. ~ I also see how contained anger evolves into depression, and chronic illness or accidents. ( As a way of punishing myself - especially since I believed that anger was ungodly .. ) However, I have been experimenting with experiencing anger, allowing anger, witnessing anger & finally expressing anger. In small, infrequent doses. It’s sort of like my program to train myself to be comfortable in the presence of anger. To not freeze and /or run away. ~ These days, there is a lot of venting & total strangers feel it is acceptable to confront me in the street. I do my best to process from within myself. Because I don’t want to engage, & entangle with anger, especially since it’s connected to their old history, it’s not my job to be any bodies’ sparring partner .. I have other things I want to use my energy for. 🤗 Thanks for a great discussion !!

Hey man i'm sorry this happened. It was wrong and unfair and you were an innocent kid. I would be careful with red pill stuff. Some of it is great some is pure negativity. I actually predict the mental health crisis continues to go nuclear in the first world. Every time some documentary pans a tribe in the middle of nowhere they are all dancing and smiling whereas you can sit on a bench for 15 minutes in a busy first world area and see more dysfunction than a ren and stimpy episode. Dan is such a wonderful person. I just discovered him yesterday. My family is extremely dysfunctional. I am not a God or a medical professional but I truly believe the average person needs these things to have a happy life: 1. A spiritual belief system of something that makes sense to them. I studied Buddhism, Hinduism and Christianity to form my beliefs that the spiritual higher power is pure love. 2. Exercise program 3 to 6 days a week could be anything from dancing or tai chi to bodybuilding or wind surfing 3. A plan that involves spending a significant amount of time in nature every month. I 100% believe one of the reasons so many people are unhappy is information overload. I was a skinny no friends loser in high school. I'm 41. Thank God we didn't have facebook and social media. The thing is I understood I was in the bottom 10% socially, the last picked in dodgeball class guy. In college I got into lifting weights and changed my life. After being abused by two women physically and otherwise in relationships I realized if someone is a ladies man who has been with hundreds of women or if someone is a virgin it really doesn't matter. Thats a human trait to form heirarchies and make ourselves or others out to be greater or lesser. Discovering real spirituality changed how I see everything.

Boy can I ever relate to your relationship to your own anger! I had to stuff it down for my entire childhood because it wasn’t safe to defend myself at the time, so dissociation was the only option. But like you said, it’s still there under the surface just compounding and accumulating…and the underground lake runs deep, the reservoir is massive! And every once in a while the levee breaks, it reaches a critical mass, and the pressure valve blows open and I explode in RAGE over something trivial or that’s not such a big deal in reality, but I’m raging about all the past hurts and injustices and taking it out on this unfortunate person in the moment. My wrath and fury erupts in so much disproportion to the current situation, and I look like a hostile unhinged freak! And then afterwards, I feel bad and guilty and ashamed and also hideously emotionally defective…pathetically socially inadequate… terribly character flawed…bad, evil, monstrous… And when you never got to express anger and have zero practice showing anger in a healthy or effective way, you don’t know how to handle it appropriately or like a normal person would as an adult… hence the menacing… Poor parenting has long lasting impacts that really can impair a persons life when they grow up. Relationships in particular are incredibly challenging and I feel hopelessly inept at times.My emotional stuntedness definitely hinders my ability to get along in the world, and it’s so embarrassing sometimes following an episode…

Dear Daniel, you are so special--I wish I could express that in a more profound way. When I watch your videos, I always have a flood of thoughts and memories and feelings. This is the flood now: When I was growing up, I used to go into my room and cry a stifled, agonizing cry and beat myself in the head. Slap and hit. No body knew I was doing that. No body saw this until in a relationship as an adult. Even though I understood a lot of what was going on around me, and to me back then, and that the people around me were very sick, and I had an ability to intellectualize so much, I couldn't understand why I was doing that. I thought, why would any person hit themselves? I thought it seems like the act of someone who doesn't like themselves. But I don't hate myself, I thought. I can't see that I hate myself. So, why is it then, I thought. I couldn't come up with anything except I thought I am in so much pain that it has to go somewhere. I always rejected the idea that I have self-loathing. I considered it some kind of 'base' feeling--I thought it meant that I was self-absorbed to feel that way about myself, and I thought it so unwise, and how could I be so unwise, on and on. Because of the judgements and so-called intellectualizing that I made on my self, I couldn't see parts of myself straight. The truth of what it is. But, now I can observe more clearly--I seem to have self-loathing. Now I am 47, and I can start to see it. I don't hit myself in the head anymore, but I can notice so many thoughts towards myself that are very harsh, but I am so used to thinking that way that it has just been woven into the fabric of how I exist. Can't unravel it til you see it. Took a while. My mother said to me when I was about 12, "You use the word 'I' too much." Boy, that was a good one! A glimmer of that feeling is creeping up now, but I will allow it....Thank you for the most true, direct, thorough, profound insights I have come across from another person about all this painful stuff.

There’s a 4th type of anger: Passive-aggressive behavior. People who endured narcissist abuse as children often become adults who are afraid to overtly express anger so they covertly - unconsciously - express it. For example, Mary (an adult survivor of narcissistic abuse), has a friend named Sue who occasionally disrespects Mary in one way or another. Mary isn’t comfortable directly confronting Sue about her actions so instead Mary is chronically late or “accidentally” forgets to pay back $20 that Sue lent her.

I have been forbidden to feel anger by my parents since early childhood. That was always deemed wrong. I was bullied in school since day one, and I wouldn't be allowed to feel angry for it. Speaking of the topic today when I'm 41 years old with my parents or my brother always comes to a same end: I'm in the wrong if I feel angry about anything. My sister somewhat understands anger as a feeling but she doesn't approve mine. And the only times I've seen my parents ever get angry have been situations they were angry at me for losing my temper. Earlier today I spoke with my brother about this, yet again. He always tries to convince me that if I had no ego, or any sense of self respect or self worth, I wouldn't feel anger. I tried to use as an example a scene in school when he was bullied in recess and I saw that. As his older brother, I thought I needed to defend him, and I did. I threw the bully of his neck and told him not to do that again. Pretty normal situation. What my brother questioned was that why did I feel I had to defend him, even though he was pinned to the ground on his back and the bully tried to punch him. I said that you are my family and I defend my family from any threat if I can, because I think it's an honorable thing to do. His reply was that families shouldn't have that kind of honor, or pride, or whatever. What are they for? I couldn't comprehend that, and after many hours I still can't. His philosophy is to just flow above others, to be egoless, honorless, prideless, void of anything that anyone could violate. I've never seen him angry. Ever. Confused and sad, yes, many times. He treats people with honor and dignity though and is very caring and polite, a good man, but he's absolutely certain that no one can hurt him if he is a no one himself. We were raised similarly and we have very much in common, but this anger issue is something we can't seem to understand in each other. Another example I used was that If someone was to break into his house while he's at home, would he fight back or would he let himself get robbed? He said he'd fight back so there's at least some kind of a boundary in him. Too bad I had the feeling when were kids that our dad wouldn't have fought back. I slept with an axe by my bed for many years as a kid. He never did anything to help stop the bullying I endured either, and it was me who helped my brother when needed, though he didn't get bullied nearly as bad as I did. He always just said that let them do it, they'll grow tired of it. It lasted the whole nine years non stop. Let them do it, don't fight back. One time I did, and I got grounded for punching one of them. Am I a healthy adult today? Far from it. Life is easier than back then but boy am I a mess. I trust no one and I'm sure the worse always happens when I leave the safety of my home. I'm afraid to search for a job if there are bullies at the work place. I'm scared to go to a hockey game because there might be bullies at the arena. That shouldn't be. I've tried to get decent therapy and other treatment for over 15 years now, but the clinics pass me back and forth and no one seems to care. A clinic for personality disorders denied me because my points in the latest depression documents were too high. In Finland you need to get healthy before getting help. Same with addicts, you need to get sober or clean before getting treatment.

Sorry for your diagnosis you may also like the Metaphysical Anatomy vol 2 by Evette Rose. The second book is a resource book that goes into the energy behind what issue it's unique in that it has mental states too so as you sort through your own feelings and emotions this can aid in you looking at what is confined to that x you're looking at and she has questions to prompt you into thinking on the xyz so you can process it for instance: Cancer (1/10 paragraphs on the topic): You often experience others actions and behaviors towards you as invasive, aggressive, or controlling. When you feel this way regularly it may contribute to you feeling angry, out of control, or resentful, You may feel like a victim of circumstance. Your boundaries have been disrespected & you've reached a point where you are angry & resentful You resent not setting clear boundaries or standing up for yourself with loved ones. You spend time stewing over past mistakes longing for things that should've taken place or choices you should've made. This book also has 7 paragraphs on oviaran cancer too but it's content I though would be personal to put down it would be one to self evaluate to see if any of it actually resonates with you. Now she does have this whole thing as a method which you can learn on her website or via Vol 1 yet I'm still going through Vol 1 so have no comment yet. I find the big book standing alone too useful since emotions blocked in the body want to have understanding and that alone can move many along to process and free from the body I've used the book alone to just have a self talk as 1 pain leads to another in succession then they all release after I've talked over the pains i've been suppressing so you don't need her method you can use it as apart of your own method however works for you. Emotion Code by Dr. Bradley Nelson is also a great way to release emotions too and that can be modified for energy healers to remove the magnets and use their own methods to heal as well it's the Q&A that is the strong suit of the operation as it lets the energy have acknowledgement and understanding which is what it wants.

I've been watching your videos lately and it's been helping me so much. Thank you. It feels like finding emotional soul mates when I see people describe their lives as I felt similar in my childhood. It feels good to know we're not crazy and not alone in what we experience as human beings and children. As much as I wish we lived in a world where toxicity doesn't exist, I also understand how it gives us these lessons in life to grow. To appreciate the good and the bad and what we let ourselves become of it and getting in touch with ourselves inside finding the peace and balance even in chaos from the world. I sometimes think that's why we have these experiences is to test our ability to heal ourselves so we can heal the world together. You Daniel are a person that does that in your own beautiful way and it's healing to watch you and I hope it's healing for you to do 🙏🏼thank you

First, I must say, thank you. I’ve read, listened, self analyzed, medicated and gotten therapy to try to understand my anger. All have helped in some way, to get a better understanding of my anger and how to deal with it. I just connected to you and this video, more than all of those combined. It’s a lot to process, and I’ll probably watch this video a few more times in the future. I think everyone should hear this, especially men. I’ve always kept my anger in a place inside of me, keeping it ready for when I needed its energy. It is fuel, and it’s raw power has helped in many situations. The problems is, by not understanding it fully or where it all came from, I haven’t been able to totally contain it. It’s come out at times that I didn’t want it to, and hurt people that didn’t deserve to see it. When I became a husband and father, I came to terms with it, and was able to control it. It was still in me, and I could yield its energy as needed. After a betrayal that led to my divorce, my anger not only grew substantially, it has become unpredictable and impossible to control. It’s been 7 years and I’ve gotten better with it, but it still worries me at times. I worry that it will hurt those I care about. Not physically but through harsh words and being easily frustrated. I’m still trying hard to get a hold on it and heal. Your video will undoubtedly help in that process. Your wisdom, thoughts and beautiful mind, are greatly needed and appreciated. Keep up the great works!!! Once again...... Thank you kind sir

When I listen to Rob Dougan's music I realize I'm absolutely furious at the 'world', but the anger is so deep down there in the unconscious I don't have access to it directly in my day to day life. I'm the kind of guy people think of as innocent and harmless....but that's just on the surface. If someone were to deeply wrong me at this point, I probably murder them....

You have no idea how much (mentally) I can relate to what you experienced in your childhood with your parents, AND how you describe how it manifested in your mental and emotional-ness as growing into an adult. I had to re learn and re teach myself a few things. Things you also talk about that you (now) know better about. I'm telling, you and I would have some long interesting conversations if we ever got to meet and just chill and hang out :-) .

Yep. Thanks really good message. - or we're told we're ugly or unattractive or being ignorant for push back at all and being nice is a virtue so we make it a goal to stuff everything and make sense of it. Yeah, being angry is repellant that's the purpose! WTF That goofy movie Me, Myself and Irene really cracked me up because it was an over the top version of this. Maybe we should have more plate smashing rooms etc for people. That side of us can save our lives so I now believe everyone needs to meet that dark side at some point and make friends with it. After holding back forever then if you do erupt and feel shame that's another phase of it where you can never have any sort of expression that's ever possibly for your own self interest. Then if you give yourself permission to just express whatever maybe that's anti-social in some ways and you lose fake friends but then after you begin to see that it was a necessary adjustment. If the other people went away then they only wanted a distorted version of you so if they require your being caged then it's truly good riddance but it just takes a long time to get through the whole journey and then getting neutral on it all. If you're a small woman it is sometimes needed to be able to out-crazy someone rather than to freeze up all the time for fear of being wrong.

From my understanding, anger comes when a physical or emotional addiction is not met. The best way to release it is by expressing it in private songs and feeling the underlying fear and sadness

I learned at an early age that if I showed anger, I would be invalidated, called irrational, a bitch or just plain crazy, so I became unable to express anger and became very shy and unable to stand up for myself. I also developed an anxiety disorder. I also became a misanthrope and because of the way people had treated me, I lost all my empathy with humanity and I'm mostly unmoved by other people's suffering.

I get this frustration/anger when doing something routine and it doesn't work, like maybe the vacuum cleaner doesn't go in the cupboard properly and keeps popping out and i start calling the thing all manner of nasty names and think about smashing it etc. Then i feel stupid or ashamed about reacting like that. What is it when my throat clams up and speaking becomes difficult and sounds muffled?

Recently came across this gem: 'If it is hysterical, it is historical' Spot on! The powerlessness I felt as a small child stuck in my nervous system. So as soon as I have an interaction where I feel stifled in my self expression in combination with me not feeling safe as in knowing I am seen heard and understood, then yeah, hell hath no fury. (Speaking of that famous Shakespeare quote, seeing the numbers for women being attacked/assaulted/killed by scorned men, be it having their avances rejected, be broken up with or basic pathological entitled possessiveness I think this quote needs a reality checked update) ✌️
