It's called frustration, and it's normal, take it easy on yourself.

You need to confront them in a straight forward manner after you've gotten past the really angry stage.  You need to let them know how what they have done has affected you and what your reaction is to this, if it is leaving or what ever.  Just don't let your anger and pain control the discussion, you need to be clear headed so you can make good choices about what you want to happen for your future.

It's very hard not to dwell on negative thoughts, especially if they refer to something you don't have much control upon (such as other people's behaviours). \nWhen this happens to me, or I get moody, I try to be very aware of myself, and analyze the situation. I often realize that I may be being unfair ion my judgement.\nWhen you feel angry or upset, there are some very distinctive symptoms, like melancholy, sadness or anger. Identify what those are for you, and try to correct them. Sometimes, by annulling the symptoms, the cause will also be relieved. It seems silly, but it does work.

That is a sign of stress and an inability to find an appropriate outlet for anger. You need to see a doctor for more help.

u dont need professional help, what u need is to understand tht ppl dnt have much respect for the things u do. ur saying ''petty" but if they really were petty then it wouldnt affect u much they just seem petty to others. to worry about something shows concern and thats healthy but if u are constantly worried about things tht u can not or will never be able to change thts a problem that can be solved by just coming to terms tht it is out of your hands...youre absolutely fine u just think more than most

just try to remain calm and stay away from it as much as possible, if certain people are doing things that you find frustrating tell them about it, they may not know and it may do some good to get how you feel about it out in the open so that they can correct what is frustrating you so much...

It's great that you acknowledge your problem and want to resolve it. First you must reprogram yourself (so to speak). You have to learn how to control how you react to people. I think you may just need to feel like you are being listened to, and if you don't that could cause frustrations to mount and fuses to become short. Try to address something before it becomes a big problem. Change your approach. If you're losing your cool with kids, try getting on their level and look them eye to eye and sincerely talk to them and tell them why certain things are important and that you don't want to get upset or yell at them but if they don't respect your wishes it could cause you to get upset and that they can help prevent that by showing that they are listening and respecting you. Just remember you can't control other ppl but you can control how you react to them.

Don't sweat the small stuff.  If you do then alot of times it turns into big stuff unneccessarily.\nFor the real anger:\n1) Realize what triggers anger in you - a feeling of inferiority, personal injury or humiliation, not being able to be heard, etc.\n2)  Realize when you begin to get angry - thoughts begin to race, focus is not on what the person is saying or doing anymore but how to get back at them, not listening but instead waiting for your turn to talk, bringing up irrelevant things to the issue at hand, etc.\n3)  Realize when communication has completely broken down - again most of what is in #2.\n4)  Take control of yourself instead of trying to control the situation - don't be afraid to take a time-out and revisit the issue later (this requires an agreement with whoever IN ADVANCE)\n5)  Always respect the other person as you would want to be respected, even if they are not doing the same for you!\n\nAll of these points take work, but practice makes perfect.\nGood luck!  These steps work but you must want to change.

think about when somebody makes you mad.  what do you want that person to do? apologize? give you space? comfort you? what? i suggest that you try what ever would work on you.  use your own judgment.

You are angry with someone, possibly from your past, that you haven't resolved issues with, or you are just discontent with your life and feel you've been not treated fairly.

I usually deal with things pretty well, but once in a great while I'll need to call a friend or catch one of my buddies online & say, "I'M P*SSED OFF!!!" then rant for half an hour or so.\nIf you need to talk, I'm around, so you can use me, I guess\nBUT if you're one of those who ALWAYS has something to complain about, and life just SUCKS, then you should look into changing your outlook, because I don't have patience for whiners (I live with one, and I'm just this side of knocking out the rest of his teeth for b*tching about everything & doing nothing to change his circumstances).

i was also like you. people say count numbers etc then also you cant but there is a way which i follow see when you get irritated by any thing or any body if they are in front of you, suddenly stop arguing with them and close your eyes and leave the place. and watch the things that you love and which you feel sensitive.hold them and sit in a no one place and watch the surroundings then your mind will not think about your anger imagine lovable things of yourself and inside you create some beautiful things surrounding, nature or god if you are religious, and remember you childhood days and  mischiefs etc try to make a smile on your face. you will forget you anger. i hope you will practice it. bi

You are alot like me, I feel that way all the time, I think it's because of an anger built up, and being mean and hateful is the only way we can deal with it. There isn't anything wrong with being mad, it's when you really hurt someone that you really care about that will get you , and myself in trouble , the only thing I can think of is that we need to find something entersting to do. I'm a stay at home mother and I really don't like being in the house all day, but I have to because I just had a baby and I have a 3 year old, There is never anyone to talk to, when my husband gets home, I'm tired and so is he, but my day doesn't end there. But yes I to am a angry woman. Good Luck to you and I hope you find peace, I know that I'll be looking for also.

You totally can.  For starters, stop saying that you can't.  You must believe you can.  You destroy your opportunity to contol your anger if you don't believe/UNDERSTAND that you CAN.  If you're angy, tackle the reasons.  It may not be other people making you angry but rather... your perception of other people that makes you angry.  For instance, some driver is being STUPID on the road.  Who cares?  There are STUPID people all around... and some smart people too... and some mean people and some rich people and so on.  You can let things BUG you or you can NOT let things bug you.  You have COMPLETE control over your emotions.  If you didn't, who does?  Who has more contol over YOUR emtions than you yourself?  Understand?

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.

Anger comes when you suffer grievance.  Its a response to unwanted and undesired change.  Anger's mission is for you to gain strength to do anything to stop this change.  You must surrender to your pain in order to discharge alll of your anger. This includes all mechanisms  that you have deviced to deal with denial, and acceptance.
