About 15 years ago \u2014 around the time when I was learning about how my father\u2019s narcissism had affected me \u2014 I started experiencing sudden and unexplained rage. I eventually figured out that this was the anger I had been repressing for all those years when being angry with him was dangerous to me.<\/p>\n

But I\u2019m still trying to learn to accept my own anger \u2014 and how to deal with other people\u2019s anger without having to walk on eggshells.<\/p>\n

This is the next in a series of videos dealing with issues that come up for me to think about ask I write a book about my childhood experience of growing up with a narcissistic father.
