Do i have an anger problem?

Question

I was physically abused until the age of 9
I got into a fight with my little brother every day of my life until i was in high school
In elementary school and middle school i used to get picked on every day when i moved to the ghetto area of NYC not until high school i would start the fights with other students
I lived with my step father who was on drugs until the age of 18
I stay mad at the person for months even years
Certain people trigger a emotion in me where i want to walk up and punch that person in their face
If someone insult me or raised their voice at me i want to assault them. It stays in my mind for the entire day or months.

Psychologist is out of the question (please dont ask why)
PLEASE HELP ME.

JUST TO LET YOU KNOW MY PAST HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY CURRENT ANGER PROBLEMS....IT'S JUST ME GETTING TOO ANGRY..I DON'T THINK ABOUT MY PAST AND IT'S NOT MAKING ME ANGRY..IT'S JUST LITTLE THINGS PEOPLE DO.

Answer 1

Goodnight you need some intervention. Anger comes from unresolved saddnes. You need to find out what that is and come to some resolution about it. You do that and your anger will fade over time. Remember, forgiving others is for us as victims not for the accusers. Take your power back. You may need someone to explain this further for you...

Answer 2

There are anger management classes held in different areas/cities. Fighting anger from within is very difficult. I wish there was a quick answer to your problem but there isn't. Part of facing your problem and wanting to overcome it is to make the big step toward professional help. Sorry, I know this is probably not the answer you wanted to hear, but I had to write the truth. You also might consider talking to a minister. They're usually willing to help.

Answer 3

It is my best guess that you do have an anger problem and I also think you know that anger is a problem for you
There are anger management classes
You can do something about it now or be forced to do something about it when you have gone too far
AND YOU WILL GO TOO FAR Its only a matter of time .

Answer 4

I believe so. Its most likely a result of your abuse during childhood.

I know you cant see a psychologist but you need to try. If its a money issue see if you can get insurance to pay for it, if you dont have insurance get it...its cheaper than the psychologist.

Answer 5

To answer your question...yes you do, but perhaps it is understandable. There is no crime in anger, only in failing to get help for it. It will be difficult to recover until you let go of the anger and resentment.

Answer 6

sounds like you do have an anger problem. maybe you want to see a THERAPIST. they will give you tips to help you stay less angry or let your anger out in a way that wont hurt others and urself.

Answer 7

i dont really think you have an anger problem, you just had a bad past, you just need to let things go and move on, the past is behind you, when someone says or does something to make you mad then just forget about it, ignore them, they arent worth your time

Answer 8

i know someone just like you.the good thing is that you are aware of that and that's a good start because i'm sure you know that kind of problem ruin your life (job, friends, wife &kids...) i think maybe you should try anger amnagement program i heard that can help.

Answer 9
