In reply to the discussion: This year might break me [View all]KingCharlemagne
(7,908 posts)27. I don't usually reply to threads like these but I wanted to put in
a plug for the value of counseling and talk therapy.
I finally after 56 years started seeing a therapist for my rage issues. He is a young guy working on his Phd. in Psychology and smart as a whip. our weekly one-hour sessions are a Godsend. Its nice to have someone with whom I can totally let my hair down without having to give a shit what people will think.
Couple of my friends told me you may need to try several counselors before you find one who works. but I can't rec it highly enough.
PM me for more info or if u have questions.

It is VERY difficult if you are not used to it, but I found it to be the way to crack the walls
