Ticking Time Bomb ***

I believe in the term "a ticking time bomb" . I don't believe it always has to be related to anger though. I think it can be over any emotional feeling actually. I experienced today what it can do to a person when you hold all your emotions in & don't express them. I saw the pain & anguish in their eyes. I know how it feels to hold my feelings in. All my life, ever since I got molested at 9 , I have learned to shut up about expressing what I felt & it messes you up emotionally. I was a ticking time bomb & I did hit my breaking point where I exploded & couldn't take it anymore. My explosion was a mixture of both sadness, anger, & disappointment all combined. Talk therapy changed my life! When I first started, I couldn't open up because of my previous experiences, but once I saw that my therapist was there to help, I started opening up. It felt so good letting go of all the heart-ache, the pain, the anger, all my inner feelings unleashed. Such relief! Someone I know did that today & sadly I know they are still "ticking". Although they opened up alittle, there is still a lot to be discovered & it better to do it sooner than later, trust me I would know. So if you have feelings, express them! Don't be ashamed. Tell a friend or a close relative/ adult. Don't keep things bottled up like that, its not healthy in any sense. Because sooner or later , you're going to come to the end of that rope & the bomb is going to explode & after the damage is done, you cannot take it back. I know its hard , but there are people out there who really care! Believe me..its true! Don't be a ticking time bomb, express yourself! =)
