Anger management?
I want to know of some exercises I can use to calm my temper down when I am irritated and angry. I've heard of the 'count to 10' one before, but it doesn't work, and when people tell me to count to ten, it makes me angrier. I also need to know of something other than 'take a walk or punch a punching bag' because I can't exactly do those things in the middle of my classes. I've also heard of deep breathing, but very few times has it worked for me.
Any ideas of things that I can do even when I'm in my classes?
Answer:
anger is not inherited it is a learned behaviour. It can be unlearned thankfully,
First Why do I need to unlearn this?
Because no one is going to listen to anything said in anger and if you want to get people to really listen to you try this
Close your eyes and think of something entirely different, something that you enjoy focus on that for a few minutes before you reopen your eyes
then go for a short walk and try to figure out what triggered the anger if at school go to the toilet ,sit there for a few minutes and think.really focus on the solution to the problem, try to find it treat it as a jigsaw and you do not win if you can not put the jigsaw together.
you will figure it out, this takes practise, but it works
I have no idea still trying to figure that one out myself. My advice: don't do anything to get yourself angry!!
inagine something that is calming.
keep a picture of your mother in your wallet . when in anxiety/ nervous which makes you angry , see it and ask her blessings to remain cool. Remember always your mother is there to bless you IF your mother is not alive or you dispise her , keep photo of mother marry. The effect will be same .
Ann has a point and a very good one i used to have a very bad anger problem so bad i was put on medication which i only took for about 2 weeks any way after dealing with it from the age of 6 to 16 i finally realized that i can controll my anger its all in your mind to be able to controll your anger you have to realize you have controll and learn how to controll just think deep and try hard you will start to notice a difference in how often you get mad and how long you stay mad.. try this when your mad try to always remember you have controll over it and that you don't want to be angry and then you should be able to get yourself out of the mood it took me 10 years to realize that but i had no one help me and i was also a young boy but from the age 16 to 19 i only get really mad once or twice a year not saying i don't get upset but i mean extremely angry... hope that helps good luck
I know what you mean. My mother and father and my brothers all have bad tempers and of course, so do I.
I'm not sure about any exercises. But sometimes, I tell myself, so you are angry, but is it so important, let it go, don't get yourself worked up over this, it's not worth it, so what? That's just sort of what goes through my mind and sometimes, I just let it be and not explode.
Good luck!
