Posted by Linda on 4/15/2006, 12:43 pm, in reply to "Hell" The feelings of rage, being trapped, loss of freedom etc. are rich for "processing" I think. It's OK to feel them and OK to hold the space for them. I would think it's difficult not to act out on them and that's one of the reason's why the processing and acceptance is so critical. I used to wish my parents would die because of the crushing obligation I felt to take care of them. Then I felt very guiltly about wishing this. I'm not sure what happened but I no longer wish this. The desire is gone, perhaps there has been some liberating from processing. I hope someone else posts about your situation because I don't feel I can say anything all that helpful. I do think that wishing someone dead is suppressed rage and that it's very, very important to MEDITATE with the feeling and sit very silently with it and observe it, even if nothing happens. I'd do it every day for days and days.....I would think it's critical to lift some of the layers of this, so that you can move through the situtaion. You are in a difficult situation and I really understand!

You really aren't obligated to stay in your situation unless you really want to. I'm in a simliar situation and it's taken me some time to realize that if I want to walk away from it, I can.
