So many of us wait to seek help until we are in full-on crisis mode. I got permission from my daughter to share our story of seeking help when she was in middle school. There was no crisis, but I knew she needed someone outside of our family unit to talk to. It was such a powerful experience for all of us. My hope is that sharing our experience may encourage other families to be proactive in finding resources for their teens.

My encounter at the hospital Thursday with an irate and angry man is today's topic. Years ago I would have just considered his anger and rage as a byproduct of him being an ass. Now I know better. Anger and rage are byproducts of pain, fear, low-self esteem and unresolved childhood traumas. I have empathy and compassion for those suffering. If you or someone you love is stuck in a space of anger, there is hope and help as soon as you can recognize that anger is a symptom of something deeper. Being angry is a normal emotion, raging at people is not a normal response or healthy way to deal with it.
