I was until I learn how to control that. It was very difficult when I was angry at nearly everything but now I feel more comfortable with everything. So are you a hot tempered person?

I guess I used to be. I'm not that good at handling stress and so I tend to escape from all that. I'm quite calm now as a person, I guess I'm not being seriously tested anymore! I have been reading a lot of those self-help books and they are full of wisdom and insight. I used to practise meditation but I have given this up now, more busy and things so it's very hard. I would like to return to this though as they saying is, meditation is very good for your health and your mental stability. Well, there you go, hopefully I will always remain calm! Andrew

Hello Andrew, how are things going on now?..well don't be angry because I am asking you think;-)...ok jokes apart, its true that now you can control your anger like me, you are more prone to good aspects of your life and this is indeed wonderful to know. Remain calm and peace will follow you;-)

well, i am not very short tempered but at times i lose temper and then i just cannot control. i say things that i must not say.. sometimes i even hurt feelings of people. i have realised this happens when i am disturbed or frustrated and the other person is discussing something that is trivial.

Hello, I have experience such situation in my life where I have hurt people or even members of my family when I lose my temper and then gradually I understood that its time to stop making people suffer in your surroundings and from that day I have benn working a lot on my own way to get peace instead of making a fuse over small matters.

Yes, I am. I used to be extremely shy and quiet but now I will stand up to anyone and I get mad very easy and will show it. I am very opinionated and I don't care if I hurt someone's feelings or not when it comes to making a comment if I have been asked. I like to be honest and I won't fake an answer to keep from hurting someone.

Hi. med889. I am only hot tempered when I can't have my way. Or when someone makes me very mad about something. I tend to get very hot tempered when I am this way. I am hot tempered when someone mistreats me in a wrongful kind of way too.

I got angry easily when I was young. When I grew up, I learn how to control my temper. At first, I found it very difficult to control it. I force myself to remember that I have to control it. It's a long and hard way for me to learn it. But I succeeded finally. Now, I can control it well.

Hi, I also learnt how to control my anger when I was in my late teens I think this is the age where we can see what is better to do or how we should be controlling ourselves, it is indeed hard but its good we have done it;-)
