Anger

Hello Darkzero,

Yes it hard when people put all sort of pressure on you to act a certain way, like having some parents holding you back and  you can't do what you want to do!

I have tried a lot anger management courses, but somehow this anger is a problem as now I explode at any trivial situation! Unfortunately, one of my folks aggravates it by saying I am spolit and ungrateful!!! Did little to settle me down, She tried to threaten to walk out me etc.

She makes  me  more mentally unstable when she forever fault finding me, and god darn I am sick of the whole thing, result is  that the Psych dr had up my meds!!!!

Have see my case worker as it has been getting me in big trouble with my folks, as there so much they can take and so much I can take!!!

I blow any little thing that happens outline, so it time get something done.

But it is them them them, me a second rate person as they always putting their need before mine.I hope I don't end up at Psych hospital. Been there, never again.

Someone has tell one folks, the one jumping to
conclusions about me always swearing that what they do is not good  for me to stay sane! It is worsning my temper tantrums and making me more explosive and aggressive. I am still getting help.

Hey DZN

Snuffle nose... did you find any help?

um...hi

Oh yes, I forgot to say that I have autism and it effects me in everything I do.......Been a issue all my life and worse thing is that it is escalating at horrific rate. I fear that I am going end up in a cube [jail] as I mental illnesses top it off. To my parents they say I am ticking time bomb.

Recently, my social skills has gone ka-put can't get with a lot people out in the general public as I often fearing a severe mood swing as response been verbally attacked as recently it went to the to boiling point, before I could stop myself I had punched her!

Gosh this land me in a cube if this keeps happening, so I have isolated myself away from the general public.
 [it seems they only thing I could do that right.]

I get angry, pretty angry! I am stepping up to a challenge of 30 days of a positive mental attitude and I think if you suffer from this nemisis "Anger" then you should too - wish me luck- no excuse for violence, domestic violence - it is time for a change! I shall not be victum of my own weaknesses and rise above to prove that anyone can overcome hard times and to never hurt the people that love you - cause that is just wrong because they love you!

i get mad at chickens and cool ducks because they are just so darn cool!

Kids help line has online counselling. i dont think its open all the time though. u dont have to call or talk in person, its just all on the internet. it also has email counselling.

hay everyone

umm. i need to talk to someone about my anger problem because i have a long story and i dont think i could just post it up because its to long. I dont know if i can talk to a friend because one of them is the problem, and dont realy want to talk to my family either because my sister is a part of the problem and my dad always drunk and im kinda scared to talk to a counsellor. what should i do?

Oh thats harsh, maybe the government should think about individuals in the country instead of city people! My family is going through a lot of crap because of the government. I find that clenching my fist helps to keep anger at bay for a little while, just so i can walk away and take it out on my boxing bag or a stick. the only problem with clenching my fist is its leaving bruises on my palm.. ouch

EXACTLY!!!
Tonight my partner lashed out and smashed a hole in the wall at home cause of our lousy f****g government not keeping their promises of a $70 pay rise for farmers.Instead they get $40

I love anger! You know why? It beats beating yourself inside, which would be a hell lot worse, if its not released safely somewhere, preferably at the gym! Much safer! Don't get too physical with humans & damaging them now! You know what I realiesd, anger can come in from being irritated by people's stupidity - so guess what the cure is for stupidity? 

I kind of think of anger is a way for us to express that our needs/wants are not being met. For example, you might feel angry when a salesperson at a shop gives you the incorrect change. You might feel angry that you were ripped off or treated badly. This might come from the need to feel respected and to be treated fairly.

Can anyone else give an example of where you have been angry and what needs/wants may be related to it?

I would have to say that I have found the technique of counting back from 100 extremely useful at times when I've got really angry. =)
