Unresolved anger often grows into something heavier: resentment.
Left unchecked, it can take root and affect every part of our lives—our health, relationships, and outlook. And while it’s completely normal to feel anger in grief, we must also learn how to release it before it turns bitter.
One method is writing a letter you never send—to the person or situation you’re angry with. Express your pain fully. Then, if it feels right, burn it. This act of release is not about forgetting; it’s about freeing yourself from the hold of resentment.
Healing doesn’t mean pretending you’re okay.
It means finding healthy outlets—journaling, physical activity, or even venting to a trusted friend.
Please don’t carry your anger alone.
Let it move through you—not stay stuck inside you.
If you’ve experienced anger or resentment during grief, your story could help someone else find hope. I’m gathering submissions for Stories of Good Grief, Volume 2. If this resonates with you, I’d love to hear your voice.
