Anyone have anger problems?

I try so hard to never ever be mad. I dont like to be at all. But sometimes, especially toward my brother, I get so mad. And I cant hit him but I want to. So I end up screaming or hitting a wall or throwing something or something like that. I just get so angry so quick, and Its just so hard not to. So...How do ya ll cope with your anger? I write and stuff and draw, but there is only so much of that I can do before it doesn't work. I also started meditating...but...I cant always do that.

 

I don't know, I never really get mad, people are stupid, I brush it off

 

It is not a fact that upsets you, but your interpretation of the fact.

 

I used to have anger problems with video games. I just started convincing myself that it is pointless to feel such anger since it doesn't help then I started to be less angry.

 

Yeah, I have anger issues that i'm currently in therapy for. Your explanation to me sounded pretty much like normal anger and frustration. When it's a problem it affects your relationships, makes you lose sleep at night, ec. Ask yourself if this sounds like you.

 

What a clear way of looking at it, thanks.

 

Yeah thats how I feel.

 

The only anger problems I have are when some dipshit pisses me off

Other than than that I live free and happy... at 52 I can take anything...

just dont piss me off you little twat and Im always happy
hehe

 

nope no problems

when i feel anger, which is not common i just take deep breaths, i meditate, picture positives, let the energy flow and let go

Ahh LovelyHippie - so angry. Rage is a monster which will destroy you from within. A true warrior finds balance in all things. Find balance in the situation with your brother and you will find yourself to be more calm.

 

Haha these fake hippies always make me laugh out loud ,, shit you cant here me laughin

 

Im a fake hippie?

 

fo sho, you are

 

Nice.

 

I used to have severe anger problems, now they are moderate. When I was young I did some horrific things to animals in anger. I was very close to doing them to people. I have really turned myself around now though. I am a different person.

its how my brain is wired. therapy is not going to help me.

I say moderate because I dont go off as often now. I have adapted as far as possible to avoid triggers, and to walk away from situations that make me angry. But I sometimes can't avoid situations that trigger my anger. I am a nice guy, I don't provoke people, but if people provoke me.. I worry I could do something I regret and end up in prison for a long time.

Nah but I don't go looking for trouble.. I avoid pressure as much as possible, avoid stress. Smoke lots of cones... Its a more chill lifestyle...

People who know me know I'm kind to people I care about, everyone trusts me heaps. Lot of people dump their kids including babies with me. But they all know I used to have serious anger issues and still do to some degree. But I never get angry at them, people know not to fuck with me. People seem to instinctively know I am crazy, but I am never the one to start trouble. While adults can infuriate me to the point of possibly ripping off their heads, I never under any circumstances ever get angry at kids.

I wish I could go on a murderous rampage, and kill my enemies. Cut off their heads, burn them alive. Kill lots of police. Then after all this I wish I could press "rewind" and go back to before it happened and continue on as if nothing had happened. Guess the thing that has stopped me going completely insane is knowing it will completely screw everything up forever. But I would like to kill quite a lot of people, believe me they are all selfish arrogant judgmental bastards who couldn't give a toss about anybody except themselves.

 

^^^. I also used to have anger problems as a kid, my teachers and principals usually had to call my parents and tell them about the bad things I did. My parents were more angry at them than me though. After elementary school I straitened up though, I started turning that energy into happiness and expressed myself in odd ways compared to everyone else, but it made me feel really good. Now I don't get angry at all unless I'm in a high stress situation like work. Sometimes I still get this anger though, it like comes out of no where, and I feel it against people randomly, I never understand it, so I try to let it calm down inside me and figure out why I feel the way I do.

 

Not being offensive, but thats easy enough to say ... except it doesn't help to calm your anger. If something pisses you off, it pisses you off, and a lot of the time it is the fact. I am someone who believes there are some things that are never right (lets say, child abuse) and these things will always anger me - never mind my interpretation of the situation.

Anger is a monster ... I personally believe that when you finally find peace with yourself you wont get angry, however until then i dont actually think theres anyway of stopping it, except sedatives lol.

 

i used and then i started thinking about the blind, sick, mentally challenged etc.. and i realized how easy life is for me.

 

It's a serious issue. Anger kills. I preach the peace all the time but have been wrestling with episodes of anger for most of my life. I hate being angry so I've kinda learned how to talk myself down.

 

you got it dude
