Description

In this week’s episode of You’re Not Crazy, therapist and boundaries coach Torie Wiksell unpacks what really happens when cycle breakers suppress anger—and how to begin separating the emotion of anger from the behavior that once made it unsafe. You’ll learn:




  • Why your childhood brain linked anger with danger




  • How unprocessed frustration builds until you “snap”




  • Why shame keeps you stuck in the same emotional cycle




  • Practical steps to start feeling anger without fear
