I'm so Angry
I am a full-time student (seeking my BA in teaching, with the goal of graduating law school). I am a legal assistant, working part-time for an attorney. I love student teaching with 6th grade students, and I do skin-care and make-up artistry on the side. But I am consumed with anger. I am so tired, I just want to lay down and die and make all the world go away. My husband, as caring as he is, suffocates me. My job, as much as I use to love it, seems a burden to me. My education - which is my ultimate dream - doesn't seem to really matter to me anymore. How can I can I regain control over all of this anger I feel inside me without exploding at those who seem to care about me the most? I am tired...I am confused...I want to succeed...do I want to do it alone?
First you need to find out who you are angry at. This may take the services of a professional therapist. It would seem to me that you are driven. I want to know how it is that you can't sit and relax. Is it hard for you to unwind enough to make love with your husband and enjoy it? How did you decide to do all of these things at the same time? I have a lot of projects going at the same time, but I only do one at a time and I'm going through a weeding out phase/ which I do every six months or so to make sure that I am only involved in doing what I want, instead of what I think others want me to do. My guess is that it isn't about your husband, but some other issues earlier in your life, where you were trapped and didn't have any choice about something important in your life.
