I’m rewatching happily ever after and the yelling that Angie does is triggering some ptsd in me. I grew up in a very tumultuous family full of yelling and screaming. It really affected my relationships and how I dealt with my emotions. It wasn’t until my ex said he was fed up with me seeing red and having the same tendencies as my parents. I went through therapy and journal now when I’m facing strong emotions. I also don’t tell people my problems anymore outside of my therapist and my journal. Life’s good
But holy cow when I see Angela yelling at Michael I get instant flashbacks of when my parents yelling and they would throw things. The way she gets in his face, slam doors, can’t resolve conflict… it’s all coming back. I’m glad she was able to get some pseudo (I say pseudo cause I don’t know how reliable these therapists are) therapy to work through her anger. But man shit is not okay.
Imagine what her grandkids are feeling
