advice needed! i know it would be hard for you to answer if you don't know me personally. it's just the funny thing is, when i pretend to be angry they would really think i am.. and when i'm really angry, it would look as if they don't have a clue. a very few people could know the difference. and i can only think of one right now. when i pretend to be angry, my voice would be really loud and shouting, but if i'm really mad, my voice would be not that loud or not as loud when i'm pretending.. i always thought the expression on my face would be a dead give away... when i'm pretending, you would see the smile in my eyes and in the corners of my lips.. and when i'm really angry.. i would be dead serious. but why do people mistake the one for the other.. and here's another thing.. for some people, whether i'm pretending or i'm serious, they would look so scared and would try to calm me down.. but i'm perfectly fine.. just like in the movie.. they would treat me as if i'm already throwing a fit and hitting everyone.. but i'm completely calm.. do i need anger management? or is there another problem i can see when it come to my temper? any attempt to help would be highly appreciated.. thanks!

jokes are half-meant.. something like that.. for things that are not really something to get mad about, but is something that's not okay and the person is not sensitive enough to know what he/she has done..

Well after reading through your question,i was too a bit confused. Well anger is one of the most dangerous emotions we have and a mans character is shown a lot from the way he controls or fails to control his anger. You were saying that people dont understand it when you are seriously angry.Well i think this is because you are someone light at heart and hate to get angry with people.If that is the case you might not be able to express your anger well.Infact it would be the sadness of becoming angry that you are expressing rather than your anger.Is it so? What i would advise you is that if you really want to show anger to someone,stop shouting and arguing.Just avoid and neglect them.They will then understand how angry you are at them. About they taking your imitation of anger as serious,i think you are a bit good at acting.And ofcourse it is always easier to fake things than to express it when it comes from the heart.

yep.. you do need anger management.. what's the point of being angry? first, it will only make your blood pressure rise up.. doesn't worth it right? second, it makes you loose control of yourself.. you won't know what you're doing.. and what you're doing.. worse still.. when you pretend to be angry.. you look like one.. and when you don't pretend to be angry.. you don't look like angry.. haha.. i guess your friend must be headache with you.. thinking whether is it true or not that you're angry at the moment... erm... try to control yourself.. think before you get angry? or.. you can even try meditating.. it works =)
