How Do You Deal With Anger?

[April_Rose]

Life has been working this out for me for quite some time and I'm happy to say that I no longer get mad when I'm angry.

Isn't that the same thing though?

 

[Tone]

Isn't that the same thing though?

No, I used to get crazy with rage.

This is different than being angry.

Yeah, I just thought that being mad and angry were the same thing.

 

[Tone]

Yeah, I just thought that being mad and angry were the same thing.

I use mad as in crazy. Like, "Are you mad, professor?! Time travel is quite impossible!"

Well then I'm as mad as the Mad Hatter and March Hare put together.

Try not to make decisions when I'm angry, depressed, extremely happy, etc When I'm angry, I asks the Lord to help me with the problem and help me to forgive them especially by the end of that day. Sometimes after sleeping, the next day, I'm not as upset. Not succeseful every time but not like I once was about things.

As a young women make sure you are getting enough vitamin D and iron as that can affect moods. Some years ago I had a vit D deficiency and got told by my doctor that it is used as a female hormone by the body.

Now the medication that I have to take, well hubby calls those my 'cranky pills' So I do have a shorter fuse then I would like. I can say as the years have gone by that I do have more patience now than 20 years back. Nothing gives that but maturity. Also, of course, study the Bible and pray about it.

If you get angry posting on here I find it's best to put the person on ignore.

As an adult do not allow anyone to control you since they don't have that right. An exception would be someone who is mentally incompetent, but adults need to control themselves.

Cause let's just face it anger is a human emotion. Like it or not we all get angry sometimes. Even though it was in a sinless way even Jesus got angry. So what do you do about it? How do you get it under control? After recently getting angry myself (somebody was starting to become really controlling with me) I could really use some advice.

Back up a bit. I think you are asking the wrong questions. All your questions are coming from a reactionary state of mind. You are focusing on how to respond after becoming angry instead of on what is making you angry. In many instances, anger is a secondary response to fear. For example, you are a parent, and your child disappears in a shopping mall. You are afraid as you contemplate all the adverse outcomes that could become a reality. You fear what people will think of you as a person and parent if any of those adverse outcomes became a reality. Then you find your child in a toy store playing. Your fear turns to anger as you lash out at your child for wandering off and putting you through all that fear.

Fear, ultimately, comes from a lack of knowledge. If you knew where your child went, you would never experience the fear nor the anger. It is the same when we are lied to, injured, wronged in some way, and so on. Remember those times when something threatened your faith? You may have experienced the fear that comes from the probability that what you believe is wrong. That fear may lead to anger over contemplating your faith is futile and being embarrassed over being misled. Once you discover the truth about your faith, the fear and anger subside. I hope that helps.

I'm not afraid,.. I'm just angry and upset when people try to tell me what to do. Aren't you?

The root of anger is pain. Only love can heal those wounds.

Sources... Naruto.

Yeah, one of the best shows I could watch as a teen. Gaara´s arc teaches a lot about anger issues.

Whoa there! Control yourself sista!

Yes, but honestly, if you think about it, somewhere fear is involved. You don't like being told what to do because at some level you are thinking, "I know what do to do. I don't need to be told. Don't they know I can do this?" And so on. Fear that somebody thinks you don't know what you're doing and need to be told. Just my $0.02.
