I have come to the conclusion that I have anger issues but these are fairly new. I’ve lost my mom to Alzheimer’s and I share a child with an abusive ex so those 2 things alone I think are the culprits, but I’m wondering what is the best healing modality to neutralize my anger? I’m becoming a yelling mom and reacting to everything that annoys me. I meditate twice a day and do breath work and some days I’m ok and others I just see red. Would this be shadow work or something head to help my anger?

Hi everyone. Have you ever been the rebound guy/girl? Did your then partner go back to his/her ex? How did you cope and what happened then? What areas of your spirituality needed improvement to overcome this situation? This will be a very long post, you can stop reading here and only answer these questions if you want! Here's a little bit of my story. I (29 yo) met this girl, let's call her E (25 yo), 8 months ago. We were both recently single. My break-up with my ex of 7 years happened after a year and a half of reflexion and hard work to overcome the issues we were facing (to keep it short, it was a very healthy breakup and we are still best friends since then). E, on the other hand, had just been left by her ex partner of 4 years with whom she had a long distance relationship, without a lot of explanation. He said he had to focus on his PhD and couldn't with her around. We immediately got close together, and agreed that our relationship should just stay something non serious, without attachment. The thing is it was more than just s*x and after 3 months, when her ex got back to her "just to talk" and she realised she was still in love with him, she decided we should stop seeing each other and we both realised we got attached. A week after that, she came back to me after realising her ex wasn't sure about their relationship and his love for her. Back then, I wasn't too attached and could understand that she needed disclosure to move on, and thought that was what she got. I told her that I could totally understand that she was still in love, but would not accept her if she wasn't willing to move on and if our relationship wasn't going to be serious. She agreed and told me she had strong feelings for me. 4 months have passed, and she started to pull away, saying she feels guilty for still thinking about her ex, and she was lost with her feelings towards me. We agreed on giving time to each other and to part for 2-3 weeks. I spent these weeks doing active work on detachment and letting go. I was feeling better and decided not to engage with her and just spend time with her without expecting any commitment. The thing is, during this time, she sent a letter to her ex telling him to either give her disclosure or get back with her. I told her that she put herself in a difficult situation of expecting his answer and to think about what she would do according to his potential answer. She tried, but told me after 2 weeks that she wasn't sure if she would find the strength to say no if he apologetically gets back to her. I said to her that I got it, and that I would start detaching.

For anyone that is suffering any physical pain I thought Tracey’s explanation could be helpful by allowing us to dig deeper into our pain and unraveling the root cause of it. Look around and see if you can find yours. Please do share so we can all learn and relate🙏🏼 https://www.instagram.com/reel/C0ZmEiUs5oM/?igsh=MW84N3U5aWdlYjFxbA== I’ve known both emotional pain and physical pain for as long as I can remember. I’ve suffered from Endometriosis for 12 years before I finally got my diagnosis. This has changed the person that I thought I was in ways that I can’t even describe. My battle was a silent one and unseen and that was the hardest thing about it. No awareness back then from the medical field about women health, being gaslit by my doctors sent to therapy saying all my pain is in my head and the tests don’t show anything wrong signaling in my body, having to desperately go from one doctor to 10 to 20..and always be told either to relax, prescribed pain killers, go to therapy, or a few times, and those were rare, even though I appreciated them way more, I was told we know something isn’t right but we just don’t have the answer… I spent my teenage years and my 20’s in hospitals,I spent them on pain killers and I spent them being injected with morphine, I’ve spent them being in emergency rooms and seeing a lot go around in me in those rooms and hear people’s screams and losses and pain…I spent them fighting one battle after another in the dark not knowing how or why helplessly not knowing who to turn to, I’ve traveled to find answers, I spent them gaslit and guilty tripped and ashamed I spent them feeling less of a woman and undeserving, all I knew how to do is bare the pain. This isolated me in ways I can never explain, but it made me look deeper than I could have ever done on my own, I’m so very proud of the woman I am today and it’s not just words to say, Im proud I’m feeling more than I could’ve without experiencing this, I’m proud of not giving up, I'm proud of my resilience, I’m proud of the lessons I’ve learned, Im proud on what I chose to stick by and let go of and the things Ive identified with, I’m proud that I haven’t allowed this to defeat me….I want to say this, to any one of you that are experiencing any type of pain, don't let anyone tell you your pain isn't real, only you live in your body and experience your life. I know how discouraging this can be but please keep going. Keep going🙏🏼You will find your cure in your pain, and most importantly you will find you🙏🏼🙏🏼
