Revenge won't change anything. Trauma needs healing, not acts that further damage you.

I doubt that revenge will make you get over it. Revenge is only a cure for petty things.

@Raggamuffin Revenge is healing.

We take delight in the misfortune that occurs to the people that have hurt us. This is fate sort of getting revenge for us because we were too weak or cowardly to do it ourselves.

Hurt people hurt people.
Try looking at Bessel van der Kolk's The Body Keeps the Score. Good book on the biomechanical side of trauma.

To seek revenge is to act in a spiteful and malicious way. If you think being spiteful is healing, then more fool you. Thought and action should come from a loving place, that is how you heal and grow.

@Raggamuffin Words like spiteful and malicious only matter when right and wrong are brought into the conversation. Humans' happiness and health sometimes does not factor in right and wrong, but doing what is a primal desire, otherwise they'll be self-harming for the good of someone else.
