NWR: anyone else has some anger mgt problems

I do big time

each time I get mad I take it so far and act so impulsively. Sometime I really hurt myself by acting this way.

last time was this friday when I saw my bill for cable, which was higher by $50. So I called them and disconnected our cable before the weekend

Later I had to call back and reinstall cause our bldng doesn't allow to install DirectTV.

Just wondering what anybody does to control themselves.

i just try to think things through and compose myself as best i can. if possible - like driving in my car alone - i might scream just to get it out

then...there is always retail therapy

ye my problem is that I cant compose myself or walk away when I get mad. I just go into crazy mad bich mode.

thanks guys. I really do need to get back to taking a moment before doing anything when I get mad.

next time I promise I'll try my best.

i have major anger mngmt problems


ive punched walls, broken soooooooooooooooooo many remote controls. punched ppl . its bad

i even punched the shyt out of my laptop to the point where it broke. all cuz i didnt beat my high score in bejeweled. the next day i had a new laptop. so honestly. i have no self control and i can seriously kill some1 if im taken to that level.

Regy what do you mean you hurt yourself?

oh the whole 'just walk away' routine does NOT work on me. last time i was told to 'just walk away' i beat the shyt out of a man at a lounge and the bouncers yelled at ME. then i walked away and punched a cement wall. i was soo ANGRY. i went to leave an hour later..and the guy i beat up was waiting to fight me. and i was ready.. but som1 escorted me to my car.


i get pretty violent.. only cuz ive learned not to take peoples shyt. especially trash.

oh Chrissy dont worry. not physically. I meant that I stumble myself. I put road blocks in my own life just cause I get so impulsive.

Barb, totally get the desire and acting upon the desire to hit shyt.

need to work on patience. so lacking that.

Let's see...one time FH and I were having an argument (but it wasn't loud) on a streetcorner and some jerkoff decided to get loud and obnoxious toward us, so I reached into the garbage can on the corner and took out a pipe and beat him with it. And a cop saw it happen and didn't intervene.

Nope, no anger issues here.

I've tried to calm down lately, but it doesn't always work..

::Sigh:: I know the feeling. It s*cks to be your own worst enemy. I try and just step back and breathe but it hardly works for me. I usually try to take the dogs for a walk and go for a smoke. Not the healthiest outlet, but it soothes me.

We're crazy broads. Thank god we found men to deal with us.

I think people underestimate me and will pick on me not knowing full well what I'm capable of. Once I explode, that's it. Someone is gonna get hurt, and it ain't gonna be me!

I've put in the effort to calm down; it doesn't always work but I do find that working out frequently keeps me from acting out and keeps my mind in check.

I got so bad with that the FH said that I wasn't the girl he fell in love with anymore and almost called off the wedding. the put it all into prespective. Now, i TRY to count to 10 and just think it through before reacting. So far it's working and I'm trying to not act out so much!

I am really glad I have posted this. Its important to talk about these kinda things.

Great way thru here to support each other.
thanks everyone!

I have a really short fuse but as I've gotten older I've learned to control it. Now instead of yelling I think it my head is yelling going to make this problem any better and I just let it go..

I really like this. Never thought about it in this way.
Will try to implement.
