Chronic Resentment, Anger,
Or Emotional Abuse
Self-Help Boot Camp

Resentment in families is inherently devaluing.

It devalues those who resent and those who are resented.

When chronic, resentment leads to angry outbursts and, eventually, to emotional abuse, to making loved ones feel afraid or bad about themselves.

Resentment and anger may be justified, but that’s never the point. The crucial questions we must ask ourselves are:

Do I like myself when resentful, angry, or devaluing people I love?

Is this the way I want to live my life?

Do my loved ones like themselves? Do they feel safe?

Sadly, individual therapy and couples counseling tend to worsen resentment.

The acclaimed Love without Hurt Boot Camp is a different approach, focused on empowerment and skill-building for personal healing and a better future.

Note: The boot camp is not for active domestic violence. Your local DV agency won’t produce change but will provide ongoing monitoring for safety. In cases of violence, near completion of a DV program is prerequisite to the boot camp.

Your partner will not heal – or be safe to live with – without becoming more compassionate.

Your compassion will heal you, not your partner.

More

What is emotional abuse?

Behaviors intended to make loved ones afraid or feel bad about themselves.

Though often not willfully, abusers invoke shame or fear to get what they want.

Characteristics

Resentful, angry, or abusive people blame their partners:

“You push my buttons.”

“I might have overreacted, but I’m human, and look what you did!”

They feel like victims, which, in their minds, justifies victimizing others.
