Counseling Center Help
The counseling center was very successful today.
I learned that I think negatively and resent people. I need to let go of resentment and terrible things in the past and build boundaries for the future. I am not sure what boundaries are healthy, though.
I was told that anger goes away within 15 seconds, unless a person thinks about that anger and dwells on it. Then is will last longer.
I need to change my thoughts from over exaggerating to realistic. For example, instead of saying never and always say a lot of the time, or most of the time.
Words of today:
Resent - verb (used with object)
-to feel or show displeasure or indignation at (a person, act, remark, etc.) from a sense of injury or insult.
—Can be confused: begrudge, regret, resent (see synonym note at regret).
