What I read/hear from a lot of very "angry men" is their goals are to protect, and hide, parts of their lives from other parts. That's classic cognitive dissonance. Lots of them have very poor introspective abilities and very toxic negative reinforcing loops in their lives.That coupled with the fact birds of a feather flocking together they tend to have a ton more people around them in the same boat, melting any potential support system. It leads to a very rapid downward spiral.
Here's the thing, you can't choose what you feel, but you can choose how you heal. If you can create positive feedback loops to encourage things and take baby steps to repair, it'll get exponentially easier.

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
