Returning the brain to balance

Some forms of therapy insist that The Perfect Rage Storm will heal. However, other therapies insist that catharsis merely re-traumatizes the person who is suffering. We subscribe to the latter view. By all means, go elsewhere if this approach doesn’t appeal to you.

The solution proposed here could be described as returning the brain to balance and rewiring it. Balance makes it easier for your brain to learn new habits, or rewire itself. When trying to rewire the brain, it pays to stay off of the old, unwanted pathways as much as possible and focus full attention on the desired behavior. This lets your brain lay down pathways in alignment with who you really are.

We’ve found some things that help with this process, and some things that don’t, so keep reading before you decide whether this is the right place for you to heal your rage.

Note: Just as we don’t allow people to put porn on this site, we don’t allow members to scold or shame others publicly, even when they are convinced of the justness of their cause. Shaming and scolding interfere with the site’s main purposes. See Policy on forum etiquette for details.

We tend to be rather playful here. As a consequence, some visitors perceive this site as politically incorrect, insensitive, or harsh. The humor can seem bizarre—as members have been known to laugh about very grim things from their own pasts, things done by others, and, above all, their own bad behavior. Some of the language used may also be offensive to you.

If something upsets you, feel free to private message the post’s writer with your concern. The gentler your remarks, the gentler the response you can expect. You may also private message an administrator. Policy on forum etiquette
