News of Anger Management

Hello, I am new to this forum.

My story is one of a long and generally happy marriage of +40years. However my wife and I are both Taurean's, we can have bitter arguments, take stubborn stances and dig in.
On my side I have recently been studying about anxiety and realised now I have probably suffered from this for a long time (I'm in my late 60's, now retired). I better understand the connection between ...

In as few words as possible, I've been on a 3-year therapy journey that's mostly included EMDR and cognitive behavior therapy, but if I'm being honest, I don't think I've literally EVER dealt head-on with ANGER. There is no way I don't have TONS of residual anger inside me from endless bullying at school, abuse from my father, and even as an edult the immense stress of raising an autistic daughter.

Keep in mind these ...

Dear friends,

I have not posted for a long time, so Greetings from long ago!

My sister and I have had problems with communication for decades. We think this goes back to how we were raised. I am 6 years older than my sister. She's in her 70s now, and I am 80, and we have finally agreed to go to group counseling for the two of us together. Each of us also has our ...

I have just totally destroyed my relationship with the woman i love due to anger issues. I seem to escalate things to a point they shouldn’t reach verbally. I have never laid a finger on my partner, and we honestly never even fought that much. Maybe 2-3 arguments in the last 2 years. And i mean not even small arguments otherwise. We both are pretty quiet people. We have severe social anxiety and i have ...

I think the last 7-8 years of my life my depression has turned me into an abusive monster sometimes. Mainly verbally and emotionally.. sometimes I get a little physical.

I am hurting emotionally inside and so I seem to snap at family members, my wife, and friends over nothing. I will say very hurtful things to them to hurt them emotionally. I will yell, scream, show anger, destroy objects, push things and sometimes push people. ...

Hello All,

New member here. I am looking for a little help and advice. I get frustrated to the point of losing my cool a lot at inanimate objects mainly. If something is on the floor and I lift a leg to hop over it, you can guarantee i'll probably still trip over it. It's completely my issue and I know that but it feels like the object is at fault sometimes. I could open ...

Does anyone have any good examples of people that handle difficult situations well? Ben Carson seems to have a bunch but other than that the main other one is Dolly Parton's interview in 1977 with Barbra Walters. It seems like if anyone gets antagonized they retort back with anger.

I know this Topic is about Anger Management, but I didn’t see one listed for Rage unless I just missed it. I do actually have anger issues due to childhood trauma. I think that’s a separate issue than my rage. Noise seems to set me off in a rage. Uncontrolled fury type of rage where I can become violent. It seems to be noises that I can’t stop…persistent noises. I am very noise sensitive. My ...

Does anyone know what the standard NHS reaction to anger management is at the moment?

I've come across Secondary Care and inpatient based professionals who seemed to have no knowledge/reaction to the idea of providing e.g. a course to persons who have problems with anger. (No reaction whatsoever/no knowledge of.) The teams concerned seemed willing to treat for completely different disorders instead of paying attention to the fact the individual had actually lost their temper. ...

How bad is my anger?
I need some help understanding how bad of an anger problem I have. I think my main symptom would be impatience. I get easily frustrated and impatient. Probably mostly when I’m waiting on some thing. Standing in the queue, waiting on other people, waiting in general it just pisses me off.
I have noticed that I get very impatient and frustrated by small things that don’t go the way I ...
