Anger Treatment
Do you expereince the following symptoms?
Is you anger controlling your life?
Learning to communicate and handle your anger is not a skill that most of us were taught, If you grew up in a home where yelling and anger outbursts were the norm, you probably formed unhealthy habits of expressing anger that are hard to break.
You may have been told that anger wasn’t acceptable and were forbidden to express your anger, causing you to suppress it. Now as a result of you stuffing your feelings, you experience stress and resentment and over time that anger comes out as anger outbursts and temper flare ups or passive aggressive behavior that hurts the people close to you.
Maybe anger was role-modeled as abuse and you never learned to express anger without being intimidating or abusive. Yelling, cursing, and destroying things can happen when your anger is out of control, leaving you feeling guilty and ashamed at the pain that you have caused others.
