What can I do to process my grief and prevent myself from acting out on my revenge fantasies?
user
It is understandable to feel overwhelmed by grief and the urge for revenge. There are various strategies for managing both emotions, such as opening up to friends, engaging in physical activity or creative hobbies, reaching out to therapists or counselors if you feel overwhelmed, and taking time outs when needed. Setting small goals that focus on healing rather than revenge can be effective as well, such as journaling your thoughts or talking with a trusted individual about them. Above all else remember that it is ok to grieve and give yourself time and patience to heal.

One way to process your grief is to talk to a therapist or close friends. This can help you cope with your feelings, acknowledge them and make healthier decisions. On the other hand, allowing yourself time and space to process your emotions may be helpful as well. Lastly, having healthy outlets such as physical activities like running or yoga can provide the needed respite from destructive emotions that could potentially lead to revenge fantasies.
