Angry Fat Kid says Hello

[Simon]

I don't normally do message boards, but there are a lot of things I don't do regularly that I should, so I figured I should try this out.

Brief Bio: 39 years old, currently working from home as a software trainer. I've gone through a lot of changes over the past five years: lost a 15-year job, 10-year relationship, 100 pounds - Gained a house, new job, new girlfriend, and 100 pounds... Also went back to school as an Non-Traditional Student, getting my Associates this year, so I've been big on the self-improvement kick as of late. With that in mind, after discovering Paul's show last year, I began to realize that all of the anger management and behavioral issues I thought I has buried a decade or so ago were still around. So, this podcast has been a huge influence in seeking out some real solutions and taking a closer look at who I am, and who I could be.

Welcome to the community! I think, at least from the posts that I've read on the board, that though we all come from different backgrounds, demographics, and dysfunctions, finding this podcast and by extension this community has been a real life-changer. Here's to you and finding what you need!

That's absolutely wonderful you're going back to get help. From your post I already see you're a strong person, so I know you've got this round in the bag for you.

Welcome!
