So tonight I felt angry...really, really angry...but I could not get to the root of what I was truly angry about. It was the first time I felt truly angry without also feeling embarrassed and afraid of feeling angry...so I believe that is a good step forward...but anger that isn’t attached to anything means I cannot work on it with my therapist. Any guidance?

Anger is typically masked fear.

Anger is typically masked fear. I get that...however, this truly felt like like something was not met versus fearing something or that some boundary was crossed. In the past, there has been fear along with anger because anger was not ok growing up...so it has been very easy to confuse anger and fear since they would both arise at the same time....but no...this was not some repressed fear.

Anger is an emotion characterized by antagonism toward someone or something you feel has deliberately done you wrong. Anger can be a good thing. It can give you a way to express negative feelings, for example, or motivate you to find solutions to problems.
