Anger!

[appointed]

My depression is starting to show itself through a huge amount of anger. I hate myself, life, work, school, friends, family, sports, nature, even my talents.

It is not rare for me to scream at the ceiling in bouts of sobs trying so hard to understand why I am here. The problem also is that guilt comes along with my hopelessness.

Everyone does not understand and declare that I must have "A bad attitude." I will have to agree with them, these feelings have settled into my very soul.

Dear Father, please bless appointed and help us to lift him up and help him find answers, relief and growth in the areas of his life that touch these things. in Jesus name, amen.

i do have one idea. my 19 year old son has some tension/ aggitation (sorry about my spelling) ... he told me that getting into sports has helped him work out the feelings it gave his body.

(and on a personal note, everyone i know has had to learn to manage anger and aggitation. it's a christian goal)

Dear appointed,

Many people don't understand that depression is just a really hard thing to deal with. Sometimes you will get angry for one reason but when you are alone let it out because bottling it in doesn't do you any good. Have you ever tried to figure out what triggers it. I know it isn't always easy because I get angry sometimes and I don't know why but it is good if you try to find the reason because it sometimes helps. Venting on here I found is a good way also. Just hang in there. God loves you and knows what you are going through right now but you can get through it. Best Wishes. Lily00

Phsyical activity is a good way of letting your frustrations out. As goldenviolet mentioned, playing sports is good. Also, working out in a gym or at home can make you feel good as well. This happens because when you are either working out or playing sports, your endorphins kick in. These are natural pain relieving chemicals in the brain that also help relieve depression. Also you could try getting a speed bag or punching bag for dealing with feeling of frustration.

Meditation is another thing that may help you. This is simply time set aside where you try your best to either focus on God, or on nothing at all. This helps train you to block out negative thoughts. At first it may be difficult, just remember that if your mind starts to wonder from what you are focusing on just refocus once you have realized it is getting off track.

May Christ and his peace dwell in you.
