How to control anger? When someone triggers us or tease us.. How can we avoid and stop responding to them..? If I get angry, I am getting flared up I couldn't control my anger at that level by stop speaking... I speak without knowing what I speak.. I get angry only with my family members and not with outsiders..which worsens the situation inside family... How am I handle the situation and respond by not getting angry at that point??

Dear human, thank you for sharing and reaching out. I completely understand your irritability and frustration because of your anger issues. Anger is a normal emotion that needs to be expressed like any other emotion but it tends to be a trouble only when it’s frequency increases or is expressed in an unhealthy way due to irrelevant reasons. And this emotion remains in our body until it has run its course and thus it is important to express it in a healthy way. Few techniques that might help you out: 1. Take a moment to collect and process your thoughts before reacting impulsively. Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and try counting from 1 to 10. 2. Express your concerns assertively once you’ve calmed down. It helps in directing the expression in a healthy way. 3. Jot down your thoughts and feelings in a written form whenever you sense anger flares. It is a healthy way to vent out your emotions. 4. Try using “I” statements when expressing your concerns to avoid criticizing and blaming others. It reduces conflicts and misunderstandings amongst family members. 5. Practise yoga and meditation, which are few relaxation techniques to reduce your anger issues overall. 6. Practice saying positive affirmations like “I’ve got this under control” or “Take it easy” which’ll help in reducing your anger flares and motivates you to react in a more positive way. These techniques when followed regularly can have a positive effect on your anger issues.
