Many persons who have experienced trauma use anger as a means to express that they feel unsafe, have lost control of a situtation or the person may feel they are being rejected or hated which creates a sense of shame for them. The anger can happen so quickly that without a well trained eye the 1-2 seconds of “soft” feelings can be lost in the powerful “big” reactions of anger. These “soft” emotions are the ones that parents must look for before the outburst. Without the well-trained eye of the parent anger can be a powerful way for the child to keep from healing. attachment; anger; control; trauma; feeling; Bernadine Janzen; TATTAC Bernadine Janzen The Allstate Treatment & Training in Attachment Center http://creativecommons.org/licenses/publicdomain/ Anger-aPowerfulToolForKeepingOthersAway mbwmex@gmail.com 2008-06-30 21:32:53 2008-06-30 21:34:02
