[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 430720, member: 84"] With Nichole..............it was the unbridled rage too. It would sneak up on her when she least expected it, as she put it......come out of nowhere and overwhelm her. Scared her to death, although it was many years before she would admit it. Actually was several years before she would admit either one, the rage or the fear of the rage and what she might do with it. She knew that others weren't comsumed by such rage......and to have it, be unable to control it......made her feel "less than" other people. I'm not sure I worded that right, but it's as close as I can come. Nichole's rage came from Katie's abandonment of the family a decade ago. I'd know that it had affected her greatly, as she'd been on a slippery slope into gfgdom since katie had left......but I had never dreamed it had affected her to such an extreme. Other factors were there as other things happened during that time to fuel the rage (that might not have bothered her under more normal circumstances) .......but katie's abandonment was the root source. It was Nichole's turn around point. Bff's death last year brought it to a head. I don't see the rage simmering below the surface ready to spring to life anymore. I'm not saying she never gets mad, but it's a different sort of mad, appropriate to the situation......not the consuming rage that took over and blinded her to reality. Gone is the 5-10 switches in moods in the course of an hour or two. Gone is the walking on egg shells fear of setting her off. It's so nice. I hope this is Matt's turn around point. He's got a lot of work ahead of him. Hugs [/QUOTE]
