Well, it's hard to say -- I'm a Anger/Rage Councelor and grew up with Anger/Rage issues and in a home with the same issues so I completely understand -- So it depends on the degree of the anger -- Is it anger or is it a rage? -- People always tell you that anger is wrong -- First of all it's not wrong, it's self defense -- Anger is not evil and it's alright to be angry -- It's what you do with the anger that creates the problems -- When a person is in full blown rage that rage has to be directed somewhere to begin with until it's learned response to control, which will come in time and with age -- I used to go and beat the heak out of pine trees (I hate pine trees) until I come down off the rage high -- And anger/rage does produce and give a high -- And those harmones have to be directed and dealt with -- Just having someone telling you to get over it only makes it worse (always made me worse because I had every right feeling the way I did) -- Then I learned how to identify the factors that would uncontiously lead me to those fits of anger -- I didn't know it at the time, and would have sworn nothing was causing it, but there was -- Frustration from other areas of my life caused it -- Not feeling in control of other areas of my life or things happening to me or to my family or in my family -- Things I couldn't control and things I'd never be able to control -- All I could control was my actions and reactions to things around me -- I could go on and on -- But I would suggest to get a book called "The Anger Workbook" and it will help you start identifing your anger stressers -- And if you would like to talk further you can contact me for free at theangelknight.com -- I have 25 years of counceling experience and a Bachelors Degree plus I'm a State approved Therapeutic Foster Parent -- Helping those with Anger/Rage issues is what I do -- Hope this helps -- Good Luck and Take Care --

Anger is a normal human emotion, so no, there isn't a way to avoid it. \n\nThere is a fine line between anger and rage however. Rage is what happens when you lash out, verbally or physically as a response to anger.\n\nTo avoid rage, stop, take deep breaths, in through your nose, out through your mouth and count to 10. Or walk away, or both.  Deal with what ever situation P'd you off later, when you are calmer.

Manage anger by being happy.  Be happy you are alive.  Be thankful for your blessings.  Bless others!  Forgive, forgive, forgive the shortcoming of others.  Sing great songs!  Play!  Do something for someone less fortunate.  Get others to join you. You will be a person without anger toward yourself and others if you follow the above suggestions.

The most effective treatment is thought-control, in which when you get upset, you turn your thoughts to those that tend to calm you down, instead of make you more upset.  After this, exercise, plenty of sleep, and a balanced diet with a vitamin supplement.  These are all known to significantly decrease stress.

Whenever you feel yourself boiling over, make the conscious effort to tell yourself to stop, take a few deep breaths, and count to 12. This allows you a window for the impulse to lash out to subside, so you get a clearer mind about whether the situation really calls for you losing your temper, or can be resolved in more peaceful manners. If you find it hard to let go of negative emotions and thoughts, try diverting them from people you love to a book or piece of paper by writing them down instead. \nIf you feel that you still can't control your anger from spinning out of control, it may be a good idea to go for anger management counselling with a certified counsellor or Psychologist.\nGood luck.

NO, wait until your anger subsides to decide if revenge is the best answer. You do not want to do anything you will regret later.

It sounds like your mind is 'addicted' to the chemicals your brain produces when you're feeling angry. Try to use relaxation exercises to reprogram the synapses of your brain. Your mind can be 'rewired' to allow yourself to be less angry and experience more happiness. \n\nIt won't be an overnight transformation but, if you truly want to be happy you'll dedicate yourself to filling your mind with positive thoughts and ACTIVELY COMBATTING any negative thoughts that enter into it. \n\nThis is a "WAR" that many people fight and lose on a daily basis. You have to imagine yourself as the positive, happy person that you want to be. Your mind is a powerful thing and it CAN and WILL transform itself if you apply ALL OF YOUR WILLPOWER to purging yourself of the negative things that are POLLUTING your mind.

Take a pillow, put it over your face and scream as loud as you can (this helps me a lot) or write out your feelings in a journal or a letter to the person that is making you so angry or upset, then burn it. If you need someone to talk to feel free to email me. I went through a lot of things when I was a teen and may be able to help. I wish you the best and I will pray for you.

Congratulations for seeking help and living on your own.  You have already taken several steps to alleviate your anger and depression. I think your first step is to find time and agree with your social worker when you are ready to go out and talk to others socially.\n\nI really think that anger should not be cured in the sense one should not be angry at all...Anger is an emotion after all..but it must be controlled.  Uncontrolled aggression can lead to violence, as you know.  I do have some anger myself...usually dormant..but can arise sometimes..but I have been able to control it lately.  I suggest you take an anger management class to help you cope..and perhaps join a support group that will help you relate to others with the same problems. Good luck.

Violence - Get a punching bag & beat the crap out of it. It will help relieve the anger and hate for a while. Hit the gym hard, work out your emotional pain physically. You will be too tired to be bitter. \n\nRemember the beautiful things in life and go visit scenery that makes you happy. Be with people who make you happy-friends,family \n\nhope it works out.\n\nMy bitterness & hate is only for one person- my ex. Those things help me for a bit.

I use to have to take an anger management class and what i did was write the things down and throw them away. Go out side and yell at the top of my lungs, Punch a pillow, take a walk. But finally the last thing you must do is talk to the person or persons who made you angery. You need to resolve the problem letting it just be there isn't making it any better. If you can resolve your problem by using tatics you may need to seek professional help.

The key will be diversion.  When we focus on the problem or the issue, we amplify it and actually it cane become worse.  So the best advice is to do something different, each day.  The best thing anyone can do for any emotional concern is something physical.  It is as simple as walking.  Go for a walk.  Gradually make it a longer walk or walk for a longer time, but keep it fun and enjoyable, something you look forward to doing and want to do.\n\nIf you are physically able, begin a simply program of running.  I am 65 now and run regularly.  I can easily say, I work at staying nice and staying happy.  And it works.

count to 10. while you're counting, using a very calm, rational voice inside your head, ask yourself, "In 6 months, will this still be an issue? Or will I even remember it at all?" if the answer is no, then finish the deep breathing and get on with your life...if you're still angry, get away from that person/people and do something to distract yourself--go outside, etc.
