I feel so angry, help.?

Question

Lately I haven't been able to control my anger. I've been building up so much inside and then I let it out on people, or I start to randomly cry because it hurts so much and I can't do anything about it. But the worst is, I don't know what I've been angry about.. help me.

Answer 1

Sometimes anger is part of a bigger issue, like grieving or extreme stress. It can come up years after the event that triggered it. Sometimes it's the culmination of lots of things. Sometimes it can come up for no obvious reason at all. It's like your body just needs to let it out.

I went through an extremely angry phase years after my grandmother, who I was very close to, died. I was angry at work, angry with friends and family, driving aggressively and felt teary and completely overwhelmed all the time. For me it was the part of the grieving process (there are many!) that I hadn't gone through for whatever reason (I think mainly because I didn't expect it).

I talked it through a few times with a friend who happened to be a counsellor (or a counsellor who happenend to be a friend!) and it really, really helped. He helped me validate my feelings and find out where they were coming from.

I gave myself time and permission to be really angry for a while. I took a lot out in exercise and wrote a lot of thoughts down and got through it, in my own time.

When I was feeling better I talked it through with my friends, colleagues and family and they were very understanding.

I think seeing a cousellor is a really helpful thing to do. It may help you find what triggered it but if nothing else, you'll feel better talking about it. Remember that people need to feel the range of emotions - anger is a valid response or emotion to have so give yourself permission to feel it and work through the process. The more you accept that the more you'll find constructive ways to let it out.

Be gentle on yourself. I'm sure you're doing the best you can through a difficult time.

The anger will pass!

Hope this helps

You need more help than we can give you on this group. You need to talk to someone, preferably a counselor, so you can sort out your feelings without fear of being judged. Seeing someone doesn't mean you're crazy, it just means you need some help, and that takes courage to admit. There are couselors who work on a sliding scale in every town, so get looking. Your school counselor may be able to recommend someone.
