I am quick to blow a fuse! When i do i suffer from pain throughout my body because my blood pressure skyrockets. My mom said to Look up bible verses, and so far have been succesful, but my anger overpowers me still. I talk to my consilers, i talk to spirital leaders, but still no luck. How can i control this anger?

all i can say is try to learn to control your emotions... i go through a painful physical shock (like being electrocuted) whenever i become angry or when someone startles me! it HURTS & most ppl think i'm lying... but i am 38 trs old & i think i'd know by now if it were psyhcosomatic! i've had good luck with homeopathic consultations, they help me even out so i'm less likely to fly off the handle. hope this helps.

Bottleing up anger all the time is what is making your blood pressure go up! My advice- take up a martial art or kick boxing or something like that. Give yourself a positive outlet for your anger. If you do get angry, go somewhere where you can be by yourself, set a timer for 3-5 minutes, pound a pillow, jump up and down (my favorite), throw your shoe at a tree (my best friend's favorite), or do something else that lets you do SOMETHING but does not harm you, others, or other people's property. Then, after the timer goes off breathe in for 4 counts, hold it for 4 counts, let it out for 4 counts while imagining the anger leaving your body, hold for 4 counts, repeat until you are at least fairly calm and sane. You don't have to be totally calm and sane- no one is, but at least fairly calm and sane. Then put your shoes back on and dance around to your favorite happy song, then read your favorite story from the bible. Good luck!
And have a happy smiley day!

I think the church has a place to help but they should not take the place of trained therapists. If your anger is a great distress to you, there are therapists that are Christian (since you mention the bible) and trained in how to help if you don't want a therapist who is not religious. Sometimes people are well intentioned but prayers and bible verses don't always take the pain or anger away anymore than they stop bleeding when an artery has been slashed. You need skilled people to handle that.

Flyleaf punk, they say that anger is the very hard one to control. They say, unwanted words just came out of their mouth, which they say, they regret afterwards.
Being short-tempered is not that good. We hurt people sometimes. You should really try to hold your anger. But for you to do that, you should first seek His help. Your mother is right. Maybe this time, your anger still overpowers you. But you can't get it out of your system right away. You need to shift and have control over yourself in li'l by li'l. Most important is that, there is success and a bit of change.
Believe in yourself, God will help you.

Ask God to help you with your anger problems. There is a reason why your so angry. When you feel the urge to get angry, stop what your doing, get by your self and pray to the lord for help. He's always there for you , no matter what you think.

I have great anger myself. You have to find out what the source is. There is something that you have to deal with, instead of ignoring it. Whatever it is, is building up inside you.

Ok, isn't it time you face your enemy and talk to them....
The enemy is you....and you're hiding something....yes
What is it that you're hiding,
come on now, let's face it, you think no one knows,
but you know....what are you hiding,
and you're fighting with everyone,
because you're really fighting with yourself.
Now, get some help....facing your own demon, the
thing that's holding you back,
from success,
from love,
from life,
and from getting ahead in life.
.....get some help and find a safe way to get it out...it will come out...if you find a good guidance person, therapist or counselor to help you.
Then you don't have to be mad any more at others...for letting you down...because you won't expect as much from them, because you won't expect as much from you.
Won't it feel good and sooooooooooooo much better when you can really relax...and let go...because you are a good, loving person inside...who's been holding this "secret" too long...
now who was it that hurt you,
yes really hurt you,
and you need to
get that out.................for good...so please get help!

Write down your feelings, or count to 10, or breathe in and out, or think of everything that makes you smile/laugh, or have a drink of water.
