I agree that it's good to vent and to say what's eating you. It's unhealthy to hold in what makes one sad or unhappy and by expressing it one also discovers what is wrong and what hopefully can be solved.
Those "good old days" where mothers used fathers to beat the crap out of you which is what my father did.
As a child, I found the most disgusting thing to pretend that I am happy and everything is fine. I decided not to do that no matter what the consequences were. And I did not. The worst thing that can happen is losing oneself.
When I was a child I was never happy but no one seemed to care. I wanted to have uncles, cousins, grandparents, but none of those things. So I grew up repressed by not being able to talk to family or friends. I felt I had very low esteem.
If I hadn't had the sense to create my financial independence I would never have increased my self-esteem. I only achieved it by studying and learning.
Complaining only helped me to put my conditions to others. I wanted everyone to know the limits to approach me. No one would abuse me with their mistreatment, or hit me with their words.
For me, complaining became my best survival tool.
