Discussion / getting help:

So this is a little on the more personal side but it's something that has been going on in my life so I thought I'd share it with you guys. I have had a lot of anger issues, mainly about my childhood and my dad leaving when we were young. I guess you could say we grew up in an angry family, lots of yelling and screaming, which I thought was just normal until talking with some friends and realizing that yelling & screaming at the ones you love isn't so normal. Recently the anger seems to have surfaced much more now than before and it had really taken it's affect on my relationship with Nick and my family. We realized we couldn't get through this alone and it was time to seek outside help. We met with a counselor at our church who was able to give us some recommendations 

At first I was a little embarrassed .. and maybe ashamed. Feelings like.. I don't have it all together, what is wrong with me? I can't let other people know that. I have to keep up this image... But I wanted to share this with you because I've gone to a few sessions now and I have made such amazing discoveries that I never even knew! Realizations about why I think the way I do, why I am stuck in these feelings and emotions. Where the root of the anger comes.

I was just wondering if any of you have How long do you typically go for? Is it different for everyone?
