Facing with Anger Management Issues

May 14, 2021 11:18am CST
Hey Mylotters! How you doing? Today I had a fight with one of my family members. Usually I don't fight with anyone but it's been 3 or 4 months I have been facing anger management issues. Some people says it's a sort of emotional crisis. And what's more pathetic in my case is that I cry a lot right after fighting with anyone with no good reason.when I am angry I say very very mean things to people I love and after a couple of hours I regret that and I cry. Sometimes I try to hurt myself by not eating anything for hours. And what's more pathetic is that I repeat the same story once again. So what it is. I am fed up with this stuff and want to make peace with it. Do I need to follow some serious anger management technique by googling or I need to consult someone who is professional. Anyone up with any idea?

I think that more because of the frustrations inside. Frustrations could be because of anything, too much work pressure, or something else, and that is coming out in the form of anger towards others and family members. You just need to channel that frustration somewhere else, somewhere productive, somewhere like yoga, and if that still doesn't work then I think you should go see a professional. hope this helps.

Good that you are able to acknowledge that there is an issue. That's the first thing to do so that you can work on it. You have to introspect and find out things like what triggers it, is it some underlying frustration or recent happenings that effecting you unconsciously....you will be best person to find it. And then you can find a way to distract it through music, art, yoga, walk etc.. whatever suits you. And still if you can not help yourself, maybe you need a professional help. Take care.

Thanks for your suggestions!! Yes I know why I am frustrated lately and my Anger issue is just a result of this frustration. Because my life is not going in a way I was thinking it should be. Work issues in office, then break up, then health issues and all. The thing is I can't undo it and have to deal with it in more mature way. So from tomorrow I am thinking to start a yoga to clam down my mind.

@Princessliza Good that you know the underlying issues and acknowledge it. That's half battle won and now you can work on them. .Yoga does benefit and that sounds like a good plan.

If this becomes disabling, I would deffently consult a professional. However, learning not to be so hard on yourself, and understanding why you feel the way you do after fighting, will help. You are human. Humans fight with each other from time to time. It's healthy and normal. During those times, we might say things we may or may not regret. All of this is healthy. Feeling the need to punish yourself for being healthy is not. So please, don't be so hard on yourself for being normal.

When I was much younger I did lose my cool a few times. However, now I don't. I just state my case calmly and move on. Getting angry leaves a scar on us too, so just take it easy. You will be then on top of any situation.

My daughter goes through this exact thing. I definitely thought she needed counseling, so we started there. She has been prescribed some meds, that I do believe are actually helping. Although I am not one to generally push meds...however for her it has definitely made a difference. Please don’t be too hard on yourself. Realizing that you have an issue is a giant step in the right direction.
