Argggh, How to contorl anger or dissatisfaction towards your loved ones?

Great question! I am single mom with a nearly teenage son and I am experiencing mood swings! I have always been a quiet person who keeps things in, but now, that anger and yelling (hey, I am Irish, after all) comes out! In my case, I discuss what is happening with my son, so that he knows it is not his fault, and we have to deal with this until I get a handle on it or it goes away, etc. Communication is so important - I think keeping it in, as skygal states, makes you feel even worse sometimes. You have to get it out. But you need to make sure the person getting the brunt of your anger understands where it is coming from and why you feel that way. Easier said than done, I am sure.

There are many little tricks to help one control their anger such as count to ten (or maybe 100) leave the room, go for a walk, get busy doing something physical, etc. Going for a long walk has helped more than anything else. As soon as my head cleared enough that I could think rationally, I would pray, first for myself and then for the person that made me so angry. It might help to try to figure out just why you are angry. Will whatever happened matter in 5 or 10 years? Most will not.

i sometimes blog it on the internet... work out in the gym...

Especially when i get angry with my partner i keep it to myself and then talk to him when i have sobered up because if i shout at him he would definitely shout back and it would end up in a fight. So i shut my mouth tight. But with others i am not able to do so. I shout my head off if i cant help it. Thats bad i know. I am trying to change for the better.

I think it's best to express yourself. Just try to do it calmly. Sometimes I won't say anything right away but then about 10 minutes later, I'll just let it all out to the person. You'll feel better.

The reason behind anger is ego,when the things don't happen in your way you feel annoyed.You can overcome it by counting from 1 to untill u feel comfortable ,eating some stuff,drinking water or play on music.The objective is leave the topic that made you angry,just distract yourself from it and pay attention to more important things at that time.

I am a person who keep it to myself until the point where i could not handle it anymore and then when i lose control i'll juz destroy everything i had with the person i am angry at. It's best that you don't keep your anger to yourself as it will turn into frightening hatred.
