What does healthy anger look like to you? How can healthy anger be expressed? What are some examples of actions that happen in healthy anger?

( I would like answers both from the perspective of the person that is angry and the perspective of the person on the receiving end)

Living authentically is the best choice I've made for myself.

4. Ability to "control the room" (mediate the different strong personalities in our family)
5. Actually teaches skills

Those are my top 5

1. Feel comfortable with them /spark (the number one predictor of if therapy is successful is the relationship, not type of therapy used )
2. Cultural competence
3. Educated/ experience with working with neurodiversity

Today after 3 days of getting double cheeseburgers from Burger King (and I don't even eat burger king). I texted my partners to hold me accountable to making some appointments tomorrow.

What's a specific, not obviously related,thing you do that let's you know your mental health is off track?

Mine is i start craving a specific carb. Usually either a milkshake (which i can't drink anymore), a cheeseburger or a chicken sandwich.

CNN’s Jason Carroll was zip-tied and escorted awayβ€”for reporting the news. But they claimed he wasn’t under arrest?

Why are they shooting rubber bullets at and silencing journalists? We still have a First Amendment.

Are you winning at therapy when your therapist looks at you and ask you " do you even hear yourself?" If so, I'm winning big time πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

And yall don't come on here with no answers about having a comfortable bed or something. You know exactly what I'm talking about

Better question. Why do YOU think YOU can't be uncomfortable? How do you expect to grow and learn with no discomfort and why are you passing that down to your children?

Why do people have such issues with their kids being uncomfortable? Why does your kid never need to experience uncomfort? What are you trying to accomplish?

Are you looking for an easy way to make the world better? Watch the first season of The Last of Us WITH ASL on Max! Show them this accessibility matters. You don’t even have to actively watch - let the show run. Deaf folks have asked for this for years. In-screen interpretation is important!

This is why CRT is needed. Blaming people for. Their own oppression and asking why they aren't doing better when everytime they tried they were killed is diabolical.

I'm listening to a meditation course on how to build resilience in your children and increasing mindfulness. The first activity they mention is power poses / superman poses... Which immediately made me think of my wonder woman pose picture πŸ˜‚
