Can hypnotism solve anger related problems?

I've read that, from time to time it occurs that a person under hypnosis might go 'under' too deeply, and can never be awakened from it. \n\nBut a person's anger might better be treated by psychological treatment. A psychologist might get to the root cause of your anger without such side effects. But once s/he gets to the cause, it will be  up to you to modify your responses to stimuli.

Firstly...by getting it in your conscious. Hypnotherapy...self or help from psychiatrist. Then dealing with it there. It's in your subconscious because you are repressing it due to trauma. But yes, it will effect your life until you come face to face with it, and forgive yourself

(m)\n\nWe all know what anger is, and we've all felt it: whether as a fleeting annoyance or as full-fledged rage. \n\nAnger is a completely normal, usually healthy, human emotion. But when it gets out of control and turns destructive, it can lead to problems—problems at work, in your personal relationships, and in the overall quality of your life. And it can make you feel as though you're at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion. This brochure is meant to help you understand and control anger. \n\nWhat is Anger? \n\nThe Nature of Anger \n\nAnger is "an emotional state that varies in intensity from mild irritation to intense fury and rage," according to Charles Spielberger, PhD, a psychologist who specializes in the study of anger. Like other emotions, it is accompanied by physiological and biological changes; when you get angry, your heart rate and blood pressure go up, as do the levels of your energy hormones, adrenaline, and noradrenaline. \n\nAnger can be caused by both external and internal events. You could be angry at a specific person (Such as a coworker or supervisor) or event (a traffic jam, a canceled flight), or your anger could be caused by worrying or brooding about your personal problems. Memories of traumatic or enraging events can also trigger angry feelings. \n\nExpressing Anger \n\nThe instinctive, natural way to express anger is to respond aggressively. Anger is a natural, adaptive response to threats; it inspires powerful, often aggressive, feelings and behaviors, which allow us to fight and to defend ourselves when we are attacked. A certain amount of anger, therefore, is necessary to our survival. \n\nOn the other hand, we can't physically lash out at every person or object that irritates or annoys us; laws, social norms, and common sense place limits on how far our anger can take us. \n\nPeople use a variety of both conscious and unconscious processes to deal with their angry feelings. The three main approaches are expressing, suppressing, and calming. Expressing your angry feelings in an assertive—not aggressive—manner is the healthiest way to express anger. To do this, you have to learn how to make clear what your needs are, and how to get them met, without hurting others. Being assertive doesn't mean being pushy or demanding; it means being respectful of yourself and others. \n\nAnger can be suppressed, and then converted or redirected. This happens when you hold in your anger, stop thinking about it, and focus on something positive. The aim is to inhibit or suppress your anger and convert it into more constructive behavior. The danger in this type of response is that if it isn't allowed outward expression, your anger can turn inward—on yourself. Anger turned inward may cause hypertension, high blood pressure, or depression. \n\nUnexpressed anger can create other problems. It can lead to pathological expressions of anger, such as passive-aggressive behavior (getting back at people indirectly, without telling them why, rather than confronting them head-on) or a personality that seems perpetually cynical and hostile. People who are constantly putting others down, criticizing everything, and making cynical comments haven't learned how to constructively express their anger. Not surprisingly, they aren't likely to have many successful relationships. \n\nFinally, you can calm down inside. This means not just controlling your outward behavior, but also controlling your internal responses, taking steps to lower your heart rate, calm yourself down, and let the feelings subside. \n\nAs Dr. Spielberger notes, "when none of these three techniques work, that's when someone—or something—is going to get hurt." \n\nAnger Management \n\nThe goal of anger management is to reduce both your emotional feelings and the physiological arousal that anger causes. You can't get rid of, or avoid, the things or the people that enrage you, nor can you

Hypnosis works the best on people who have more ability to dissociate, that is, become detached from their surroundings. Both involve altered states of consciousness and have nothing to do with intelligence. Everyone has the ability to dissociate, but some people have more of the ability, perhaps because they have had more cause to become detached during their lives. Looking at it from a psychological angle, I would say your hypnotisability would have the most to do with your life experiences and consequently the way you react emotionally to different situations. No two people ever have the same experiences and view things in the same way, regardless of IQ.\n\nEdit: To put it more simply, daydreamers (who could be seen as having a "weaker" grip on reality) would likely be easier to hypnotise than more practical people.\n\nOr another way to classify the two groups (more hypnotisable versus less hypnotisable), thin boundary personalities versus thick boundary personalities, the terms being used in relation to dreams and susceptibility to nightmares:\n\n"What differentiates the the two boundary types is a separation between mental process, thoughts and functions. Those with thin boundary type tend to often merge thought with feeling, have a difficulty with focusing on one thing at a time, daydream or fantasize, experience forms of synaethesia, have more fluid sense of self and tend to "merge" more with those who are close to them. Those with thick boundaried personalities have much more separation between what is real and what is imaginary. They tend to have a distinct focus on one thing at a time, differentiate between thoughts and feelings, real and fantasy, self and others, lack strong memories from childhood, well organized and has a strong sense of self."\n\nAgain, nothing to do with intellect, more to do with psychological makeup and emotions.

Good luck!

Yes,hypnotising you can uncover a childhood fear.  I have been hypnotised for that very reason. \n\nYou can hypnotise yourself as well, but I would recommend seeing a professional first\n\nAll hypnotism is is tapping into your subconscience. You focus on something and you start to breathe in and out slowly as the doctor speaks with you. Soon you go into sort of a sleep and you are able to focus and you are able to clearly think because you mind is basically clear and you can get in contact with your subconscious. \n\nThe myths about hypnotism, no the guy doesn't swing something back and forth in your face and say you are getting very sleeping. You are in a nice pleasant room, you lay on a nice cozy couch and make yourself comfortable and you focus on a picture that you are attracted to or a plant or whatever is pleasant to your eye. \n\nOnce the session is over, the doctor slowly brings you "back to reality". \n\nIt's really a neat thing. \n\nA good hypnotist has a pleasant office, they are compassionate, they are understanding, and so on. \nYou will have to be the judge of who's good and who's not. \n\nGood luck to you

Hypnotic Seance, by Richard Bergh\n\nHypnosis is understood to be a psychological condition in which an individual may be induced to show apparent differences in behavior and thinking. Although some individuals experience an increase in suggestibility and subjective feelings of an 'altered state of consciousness', this is not true for everyone. In fact, supposed hypnotic indicators and subjective changes can be achieved without relaxation or a lengthy induction, a fact which increases the controversy around hypnosis.\n\nIntense debate surrounds the topic of hypnosis. Some scientists dispute its very existence, while many therapists insist upon its value. One potential source of controversy is the wide variety of theories of hypnosis which have traditionally been split into 'state' and 'non-state' camps. This controversy may be decreasing as the value of both perspectives is increasingly recognized. Modern brain-imaging techniques offer hope for an increased understanding of the nature of hypnosis.

Some tips: \n1) When you feel the anger rising inside you... close your eyes (or don't) and breathe in deeply for 5 seconds... hold for 5 seconds... and push out slowly and completely, for 5 seconds.\n\n2) Drink a big glass of cold water; literally cool off... this works.\n\n3) Lay down... it's very difficult to maintain the fight or flight response lying down.\n\nConsider starting a routine each evening before bed where you sit quietly in your room, or lay quietly, with soft music or none, breathe slowly in and out 5 in, hold 5, out 5, and relax each body part one at a time, flex and relax... and visualize that part of yourself you are unhappy with, your temper, disconnecting from your body and head and filling a big red balloon... then let it float high away from you... see it explode, and all the anger just evaporate into the atmosphere.  This is just one of many ways to meditate and release...\n\nAlso consider an Anger Management work shop...

I highly recommend a book called Feelings Buried Alive Never Die.  There is a simple emotional release technique described in the book that, when done each day for 5-10 minutes, can help ease extreme emotional upsets and even some physical ailments associated with emotional problems.\n\nI've used this example before in another answer, but I'm going to use it again:\n\nI live in small, cramped quarters and often find myself bumping into things.  When I bumped into things in the past I would immediately become OVERWHELMINGLY ANGRY.  The anger troubled me greatly, much more than the momentary pain from bumping into things.  I used the emotional release technique in the book and I've not been angry from bumping into things again.  \n\nAlso, I used to suffer with chronic, ever present anxiety/guilt feelings.  I used the technique for that as well and I've felt peaceful and content with my life and circumstances and relationships overall since.  \n\nI believe I will have to continue to use the technique, but it's totally worth it!  Please look into it!

Hypnosis is popularly understood to be a psychological condition in which an individual may be induced to exhibit apparent changes in behaviour, thought or affect. Although some individuals experience an increase in suggestibility and subjective feelings of relaxation, this is not true for everyone. In fact, hypnotic indicators and subjective changes can be achieved without relaxation or lengthy inductions which increases the controversy around hypnosis.\n\n\n\nIntense debate surrounds the topic of hypnosis. Many scientists dispute its very existence, while many therapists insist upon its value. One of the problems that creates controversy is the wide variety of theories of hypnosis. The definitions of hypnosis are as varied as the definers. Dr. William S. Kroger states:\n\n"Like the nature of human behavior, there will be different theories about hypnosis since all hypnotic phenomena have their counterpart in the various aspects of human behavior." (1977)\n\nThe applications of hypnosis vary widely. Currently, two distinct applications of hypnosis include its use in entertainment and in health applications. The popular perception of the hypnotic experience is that of the entertainment version. The stage hypnotist uses a variety of methods to relax and focus the subjects eventually making it appear to the audience that the subject is asleep or, popularly termed, in trance. During the performance, the subjects seem to obey the commands of the hypnotist to engage in behaviors they might not normally choose to perform.\n\nOn the other hand, hypnosis applications in the medical and health-related fields are often experienced very differently. Clinical hypnosis is used in attempts to increase the ability to recall memories, assist with dieting, smoking cessation, pain reduction or elimination, eliminating irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) as well as resolving mental disorders such as post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety and depression.

The problem lies with yourself - thus, the remedy is for you to correct your perception, thinking, belief, conviction.  Then, your feelings will follow based on what you have in your mind.  You know that your crazy thoughts are not logical.  You have to, as Socrates said before "Know thyself."  There is an intrinsic insecurity underlying jealousy.  It's something that you have to handle.  Try to get self-help books that deal with this matter.  If you exert efforts to improve yourself in this matter, you will be rid of this defect.  Good luck.

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.

Consider a career change;  barring that, examine WHY you are becoming so angry.  Practice deep breathing to achieve a relaxed state while NOT angry and once you can achieve it on a regular basis, begin using deep breathing to manage your anger and stress levels.
