Anger Management Problem

The term anger management commonly refers to a system of psychological therapeutic techniques and exercises by which someone with excessive or uncontrollable anger can control or reduce the triggers, degrees, and effects of an angered emotional state.

Surefire techniques for controlling anger are: Stop Talking, Stop Staring, Leave the Room. Finding agreement with the other party, no matter how small, is important such as "You are right, I am inconsiderate so will help clean up". Note that the word inconsiderate could have been part of a much larger argumentative statement.

Healthy adults need to be able to hint, to use, or to pretend "anger": either management or mismanagement, as is appropriate. Competent teachers, law-enforcement, and other authority figures are especially skilled in anger management. Teams of such practitioners may decide beforehand or in real-time, to play "Good-Bad Cop" roles.

Courses in anger management are sometimes mandated by a legal system. Courts typically require eight to 12 hours of classes for most offenders. There are currently no national or state standards. Therefore, some people may not receive the help that they require.

Typical anger management "techniques" are the use of deep breathing and meditation as a means to relaxation. As the issue of anger varies from person to person, the treatments are designed to be personal to the individual.

  I seem to spend more time on daily strength than here but here goes. After seriously destroying my life, relationships with family, and no longer having most of the trust of my friends I wonder where do I go from here? I've quit drinking after that night, I do feel much better and my anger limit has stayed closer to normal. If my limit has went up I haven't noticed it. I've even gotten rid of my aggressive music and lost interest in seeing violence in movies.  As for her I'm under a court order not to contact her but I know she's ok or as well as can be expected. I don't think I will be able to climb out of the hole I'm in (Depression) until I am out of this small town with nothing to offer me. Until then I hang on and don't drink and keep busy. We are in the middle of Winter here ...

  I bought this book Rage a step by step guide to overcoming explosive anger. I have learned some interesting and scary things. Reading other peoples real life experiences. How they have held guns to their lover chest. It pains to think if I am capable of doing something like that. Sunday I attacked my boy friend . We got in an argument and I flipped out. I only remember bits and pieces it is a blur. I have done this 5 or 6 times over the past 3 and a half years of us being together. That may not seem like alot but it was too much for him. We may never be together again. I just want to focus on really getting better. He told me he doesn't trust me with his life. Nothing has ever hurt so much.Today was an ok day. I went to work. Boring. Came home ate dinner. Nothing special.
