Can you control your own anger... or do you just burst? Me, mostly i can control it well but sometimes i cant.I can not cope with it well especially with the people close to me,although I rarely get angry in live but sometimes I get really angry with something or someone. what is your situation?

It depends on the situation, for me. For the most part, I can totally be calm & collected during pretty much any situation - but I CAN be pushed over the edge. It takes quite a bit though. I'm more likely to give someone the cold shoulder than to lash out at them; however unhealthy/bad that is. Have you considered anger management or some kind of "stress-relieving" class to help with your anger issues? Maybe if you channel some of that negative energy into something like working out or running - you'd feel better & more calm about things. Good luck, anyway!

I dont get angry easily, but I dont suffer fools gladly either. I give back as good as I get, politely or angrily, depending on the situation. With outsiders, I am usually politely argumentative if I feel I am right, with loved ones, i do tend to yell at times. However i am the first one to say sorry if I feel i have wronged someone.

Most of the time I can and I am willing to control my anger, when I'm facing a stranger or someone who is not so close to me. But if I am facing my family or someone who is very close to me, I would like to burst it out, and actually i always do so. I don't think I have to cover my true feeling and my nature to those who are close to me. If they are real friends to me, they can understand me.But in fact, I am not those who is easily to get anger.

Anger management....Wow, a problem of most of all people including me. Some one told me that before you felt blood rushing to your veins, as much as possible avoid hot headed argument. If you feel that the conversation is not going well just leave the room.

I usually can control and manage my own anger. I am not easily getting angry and always think about everything before saying. But, there is situation where i can't control myself from anger. Fortunately, it only takes few minutes then i will calm down.
