Anger management. Or professional help?

Dear human, thank you for sharing and reaching out. It sounds like you're going through a difficult phase and I appreciate you for reaching out with your concern, it takes courage. Firstly, anger is a normal emotion like happiness, sadness and everybody experiences it. But the way it gets manifested differs for every individual. Every emotion should be expressed in an appropriate/healthy manner at the right moment in right amount. When one doesn't express anger or any other emotion, it builds up within and explodes when it reaches the saturation point. Your anger issues could be because of many reasons like stress, anxiety, depression, and the underlying factors for these reasons could be any life challenging situation of which only you would be aware of. Yes, anger issues can be managed when you know the trigger signs for it. When you know the triggers consciously you might get prepared for it and would try to react in a different way. From now on try to analyze what exactly is triggering, why it is affecting you and in what different ways you could react for these triggers in every situation possible. You can do this by writing your thoughts down when you feel angry, exactly as is. Writing makes you vent out the anger and also reflect on what you're undergoing currently. If you think you're unable to manage it even after identifying the triggers, you can seek therapy where your thoughts/situations related to anger will be identified and modified and also you would be provided with a safe space to vent your anger, also learn healthy ways to express it.

Few grounding techniques to help cope with anger issues: 1. Splash cold water onto your face and try to calm yourself down. 2. Count 100 to 1 backwards slowly. 3. Close your eyes and imagine how would you deal the situation when you're calmer. 4. Pick an object and start touching and feeling it. Observe it's color, shape, texture and state it's uses. This brings you to the present moment.

Hello I hear you, and I understand how difficult it might be for you to manage your anger. The first step to take when you feel like everything is too much is to reach out for help and you have already done that, which is great! Things are not always going to be rough so hold tight! Some tips for you to manage your anger are: 1. Think before you speak In the heat of the moment, it's easy to say something you'll later regret. Take a few moments to collect your thoughts before saying anything — and allow others involved in the situation to do the same. 2. Once you're calm, express your anger As soon as you're thinking clearly, express your frustration in an assertive but nonconfrontational way. State your concerns and needs clearly and directly, without hurting others or trying to control them. 9. Practice relaxation skills When your temper flares, put relaxation skills to work. Practice deep-breathing exercises, imagine a relaxing scene, or repeat a calming word or phrase, such as "Take it easy." You might also listen to music, write in a journal or do a few yoga poses — whatever it takes to encourage relaxation. 4. Identify possible solutions Instead of focusing on what made you mad, work on resolving the issue at hand. Remind yourself that anger won't fix anything and might only make it worse. Simultaneously you can try to convey to your parents about your difficulties and convince them to let you reach out to a therapist. I know things may look really difficult right now but stay strong and things will be better!
