Hi, not easy as we expected,''because your anger has been since you were born''. anger at you is a sign of''temperament''nature. but if you have a willingness to''control''because in fact you realize that nature is very negative and very harmful then you can do''with the therapy of emotional control.''you can go to your doctor and can go to your doctor and convey this intention, you will get the therapy. if you feel shy, then you can do it yourself, high discipline and strong will a very high discipline and strong will. you will be able to successfully control your''anger''. thanx

hi, Here are 4 steps to control your anger and have it vent in proper ways. 1. Count to 10 when you are getting upset. This is a normal way that we have all heard. We have heard it because it works if you practice it. Count to 10 and you may solve many of your outbursts before they happen. 2. Do something that is physically exerting. Instead of punching a wall or a person, go run around the house, or mow the yard. Go for a walk, swim, bikeride, or shoot some hoops. This can provide a physical outlet for your emotions. 3. Find something that is calming. Try deep breathing from your diaphragm. Take 10 deep calming breaths. This can be very soothing for most people. Combine this with step 1 and count to 10 slowly while breathing. 4. Use "I" statements instead of "you" statements. I am frustrated because you didn't help with the housework, instead of You didn't help me with the housework. This helps in multiple ways one is your way of thinking is a bit better and you also do not upset the other person so that both parties are angry. Which of course is not a good outcome for anyone. You can combine multiple steps above to help alleviate anger. Don't hold it in, but don't blow up. Calm yourself down and talk about it by using step number 4 above. Go for a swim or a nice shower, and you can alleviate the stresses that cause unhealthy anger. http://ezinearticles.com/?4-Steps-to-Control-Anger&id=171492 Be happy and have a nice time.

you often angry may be due to the problems you have as much of a burden to you, you should not be too dizzy to think the problems you face, let your problems go to find a solution

Hello gengeni! I am among of them too! Yes, it is really difficult to control our rage and it surely doesn't feel any good at all. It seems like everyone in this world are created for you as foes when anger comes our way. It is best to stay calm and quiet, but the negative thing is that it won't be good to your mental health and well-being. If you get angry to a person, well do not just keep your mouth shut the whole time in a middle of a conversation. Speak up! it will help eliminate the anger built-up inside you. Drink plenty of water, it gives calming effect. If you want to have time alone, be in a relaxing place like coffee shops, library, or just any place where you find relaxing. Have time to meditate and think things for yourself. Never decide when you're mad, it never comes up to a good decision therefore leads you to worse situation. You can just sleep it out if you feel too much pressure, and I'm quite sure you'll feel better and think properly when you wake up. I hope you find these helpful. GOODLUCK and stay calm! and oh, by the way, there's this thing you call "stress ball", you can rely on it too. It does reduce one's stress during rage. Happy MyLotting!

I am not one who easily gets angry but when I do flare up, I do or say something surprising even to me. I hate the feeling of anger - it just seems to destroy me and squeezes the life out of me. When I get angry, I count 1-10 and I just sleep it off. After, I feel much better but of course I still have my mind on the matter - nonetheless, my head feels much cooler and I just think through it more calmly and peacefully.

What do you usually get so angry about? I would first try to figure what makes you mad. Then you know more about yourself and you know what to watch for. If you can see yourself getting angry then I would move away from the situation. I tell my grandson that when he finds himself getting upset to excuse himself and go the bathroom. Take some deep breaths until you feel yourself calming. Before you ever say or do something you will be sorry for remove yourself from the situation. I think you need to figure why you are getting mad first. Understanding that you can then find some ways to erase that behavior. Just keeping quiet is nice but doesn't release the feeling. Understanding our feelings and working through them helps to eleviate them as well.
