I don’t know what’s wrong
Lately I’ve been feeling angry internally and I don’t know why. Also I’m feeling very sad and emotional all at the same time. I’ve never the type to get angry so this is scary. I feel numb inside all I wanna do is hurt myself

Hi Lime I am sorry to hear this. Anger is normal emotion, it is ok to feel angry. Please take a rest and care for yourself. Hope you feel better soon.
@compassionateLime6565 anger is one of many emotions that rise up in us. I think in animals and early humans it was a survival technique for escaping danger by pumping adrenaline into the blood stream for a fight or flight response.
In modern man, it is a problem because many disturbances happen from anger and it can get us in a lot of trouble. We can be more aware of what thoughts led to those angry thoughts and we can discover the causes of them.
We explore many of these types of feelings in these topic discussions. All 18+ over are welcome.
It's a terrible situation but I can't give a definite answer. What is the nature of your thoughts? are you angry with yourself or the world around you? when you are emotional is it when you're alone or with other people? Emotions were and always have been confusing, if your emotions fluctuate it could be a sign of a bigger issue. If you're worried or unsure about your emotions a therapist can help you through it, however, if you aren't ready yet, feel free to vent here until you are comfortable. Hurting yourself should be the last resort, if you think about hurting yourself the method that works for me is switching my focus to something else and calming down either by reading a book, playing a game or drawing. Please take care of yourself, and as I mentioned before. Please don't feel afraid to post again.
