I have been searching for about 7 months now for ways to control my anger issues, and my temper. But I've hit a wall every time... if I don't handle it soon, I'm afraid I'll do something I'll regret for the rest of my life. Pretty much what happens is: when I'm pissed off I take my anger out on others, or I hit or throw things, sometimes I throw stuff at my siblings, and sometimes I hit them! But then afterwards when I'm calm down, i sit in my room about to cry, and say to myself, "Why can't I control it? Why does this keep happening?" Today I broke the microwave in the kitchen when I got pissed off... and I cried becuase I was afraid that if I waa getting that mad, it'd only be a matter of time before I do something horrible... I don't know what to do, every idea I come up with to calm my self down doesn't work. Every website I go to, to help find a way to control it, i hit a dead end... I'm afraid of what will happen, and I don't know what to do... if you have any suggestions I'm open to hear them.

    Anger issues sometimes cant be fixed on ur own so maybe see a therapist. Otherwise try looking at why ur getting mad and try to lead it to something burried that is really the trigger. I used to use a ice cube method for my anger when I felt it bubble up Id grab an ice cube an squeeze if it melted id grab more, just grab something to give another sensation then anger. Not amazing suggestions but I hope you figure it out ✌️😊.

  • Like Hazel said, you need to try to stop and look at what you are angry at. I won't deny that I've lashed out at others in rage because of small insignificant reasons. The best thing you can do for yourself is take up a relaxing hobby such as excercising, building crafts, knitting or many other relaxing hobbies. Tips to help calm down 1. Deep Breathing Take a breath in counting to five. Hold for seven seconds. Exhale for five seconds. Do this three times and you will feel the tension in your body release. 2. Confide in a close friend. If your angry or having difficulties close friends are the best therapy. Taking focus off of your own feelings will help. 3. Meditation is one of the best elements to helping people control all emotions. All you need to do is find a comfortable place to sit, close your eyes, breathe deep, and imagine yourself at a place or event you feel most comfortable. Combining this with deep breathing is very effective. I've been able to do this while sparring, but it takes time to learn how to master this. 4. If the other two fail and you like to get physical, I would advise you buy training weapons such as bamboo swords or staves and find a sparring partner. This often helps people who are prone to lashing out randomly.

    Hey I understand I myself don't have anger issues... but my brother did. He got violent way to often and hit us sometimes. It was hard for him and we could all tell. It was honestly a difficult time for him and he even went into depression. But as he went into high school he did something my whole famiky has been telling him to do and joined band as a percussionist. It changed his life and he found what really made him happy. He loves music and we all love hearing him play all his instruments. He became less violent too and even his anger issues slowed. It's his passion and has a true natural gift. He has a piano, a guitar, a bass, drums, and can sing beautifuly. He is a totally different person now and we all love him... even through his anger problem stage. I believe that finding something you truly enjoy and expressing your feelings through that will help you, I've witnessed it myself.
