I have severe anger issues
I have been having severe anger issues and I end up fighting with almost everyone. This is one of the main reasons of my breakup. I have been in love with this guy and it’s been three months. We have been having continuous fights. And he decided to break up only because of the fights. He has a lot in his plate and can’t deal with a relationship. He loves me for sure. How do I convince him that I can control my anger and not ruin things for him by fighting?
Hello,
Before trying to convince him or anyone else, please convince yourself that you have a better control over your anger.
The first step to solving any problem is the recognition of the problem, which you have done. The next step would be to seek help. The pertinent question is, where to seek help. The professional which can help you in learning the skills of anger management would be Psychiatrist or a Clinical Psychologist. Hence please seek an appointment with any of these to get a comprehensive assessment and management of these issues. The possible causes of anger dyscontrol, as well as situations, and other attributes will need assessment. Thereafter management can be done.
Anger control skills can be learnt with good motivation, practice, and a good therapist.
Hope this helps you. Best wishes for your health and future.
