It all started when I was about 15. When I would get angry I would hurt myself by either banging my head up against the wall, hitting myself. I would just feel like I've gone completely insane. First I would feel all this rage like a ball of fire in my stomach then it would explode. After I would explode...

My mom died unexpectedly almost 3 years ago (I am now 27) but my grief and anger is probably stronger now than it has ever been.

First, thanks to Lifechurch for giving us a place to share our struggles.
