Professionally, I have been dealing with many more angry people recently, so here is a bit on anger.

Anger

-Of those people who suffered the greatest damage in childhood, most    were harmed by repeated exposure to anger. Majority of chronically angry people were also damaged by anger as children.

-People struggling with chronic anger suffer long-term consequences involving work and personal relationships. They tend to feel more alone, more disappointed by life, and less nourished by their relationships.

Depression

     Everyone feels down at one time or another. Loss of a loved one, a poor
career choice, or a failed relationship – all can invite a person to feel down.
Grief and sadness are normal reactions to life's stressful invitations.
However time heals and we return to normal.

Permission Needed to Take Care of Self!

The issue was her inability to take care of herself, to put herself first. She claimed she wanted to change so that her present behaviour would be more-in-line with this new thinking.

Tuesday, January 25. I was in Portage la Prairie for lunch with an old friend who lives in Brandon; we kinda met halfway. On the way back to Winnipeg I began to see a few trucks, cars, and vans all parked alongside the highway. Many of the vehicles had Canadian flags draped over them and a few "freedom" signs plastered to the sides of their vehicles. I was puzzled at first but then I remembered something about a truck convoy coming from the west. The anti-vaxxers were demonstrating against truckers having to be vaccinated to cross the border.
