the sad thing is when you get mad at people, they always think you’re overreacting. this always makes me more mad

[powerpuff_gworl]

I'm like a hypocrite. Around my friends I'm this sweet and loving person but when I'm with my family it's always like hell breaking loose. I want to be the person everyone knows, especially around my parents. I get angry over the simplest things, which is a real problem for me

Your childhood links to how you treat your adulthood.

“Anger is a fear of getting hurt.” Sooo true, I find myself being defensive internally because am fighting not to be hurt, because I have been hurt many times before, so it’s like “no more” and am subconsciously on to protecting myself and it comes off as anger

Whenever I get angry, I cry and I hate it because no one tries to comfort me and so I just deal with it alone and in the end, I'm the only one who says sorry even though I wasn't the only one wrong. And they say I was disrespecting them cus they're older than me.

My short temper stems from things not going my way. Like if I can't get a shoe on, or spill something, or drop my keys, or even make a typo on my phone, etc, I have the urge to lose my shit. I have actually lost my cool before over things not going my way because I want things to be done in smooth sailing, but that often doesn't happen. I often scream, slam doors or even throw stuff in rage. My rage also pushes me to have huge meltdowns over the slightest trigger. It's hard to control my emotions when pissed.

My classmates took advantage of my kindness and used my good nature against me from childhood to adolescence. Although I treated them kindly, they eventually started to ask too much of me. As the weeks went by students started coming to me for favors, and I felt compelled to comply. Eventually, it got to the point where I started to resent them and walk on eggshells around them.

Why does anger make me feel guilty and then depressed?

[tiffanygray]

Thank you so much for making a video about this, because I struggle with being ashamed of myself when I get angry. I don't let my anger take over, and turn me into a monster. But, when I feel angry, I still feel like it's wrong, because of what I've been taught by people around me. People say that anger is a sin, one of the seven deadly sins, and as a Christian, that really bothers me. I am trying to get it through my head that anger only becomes sinful when you let it control you, and you end up hurting others, as well as yourself. But, feeling angry shouldn't be considered a sin. It's an emotion. It's how you feel... and quite frankly, I'm so sick to death of being told my feelings are wrong. So... I'm really glad this video was made.

Growing up, I was always told to control my emotions and "react properly". Forced to be mature even as a child. No matter how I try to control my emotions now, I still go back to those childlike tantrums or be a person that even I will be afraid of. I feel confuse inside whether it's pain, anger or resentment. I was not able to let go of those feelings back then. People see me as a calm person most of the time because I tend to keep it all inside, that is why when I get mad, they all have the same "wtf" reaction on their faces and I can't justify what I say and what I do because during those anger moments, I am finally being honest to myself (too honest). I laugh, cry and get mad easily. It is hard living like a bomb, ready to explode in one snap anytime. I do feel guilty for the people who met me when I was emotionally unstable that I couldn't control my anger. I said and did things that I truly regret. I should've expressed that anger towards people who actually deserves it.

I have anger issues for a long periods of time, unfortunately I still have a difficult family members who would violate my personal boundaries by going into my room & that involves of touching, taking things away that does not belong to them. And plus this is the difficult situation that I had to face like pretty much every single day. As well even during my childhood.

[Steph-sbtc]

Aced it. My anger is an alarm that goes off when someone crosses my boundaries. I cannot repress my anger, it will seep through so easily. But then when i release it, it seems like i dont communicate it right or the other person is gaslighting me? I talk in terms on “i” or “me” or “i feel” but still. Idk honestly… help?

[Irenegaming]

I'm an introvert and I've social anxiety too aswell. Whenever someone asks me any question twice i easily get mad like "Are you deaf, don't you understand what i just said" my family is not the support one's who would listen to me and understand. My sibling Says I'm so aggresive that i can't even manage to control my anger towards others. I'm literally so done with my life ugh.
i always feel so irritated don't know why.... specially when someone asks me personal, judgmental, silly questions which causes me angriness and headache.

I get angry easily, I know I shouldn't but I find it easier to make people listen to me that way. No one listens if you be nice and polite so in my mind the only way that people will take you seriously is if you yell. I often feel really bad for the more sensitive people who end up getting scared of me and if I try to go comfort them they dont seem comfortable with me being there so I leave.

I am to young to be doing this and I cant figure out how to stop

I got angry and mad at the girl i love because i found it hard to trust her from previous relationships. She ended up backing off because i scared her and i honestly hate myself for it and i noticed her attitude towards me had changed. I want to tell her im sorry and how much i miss her but i feel it won't change her and it'll only make me more upset. Please whatever you do, don't act in anger or you'll ruin the one thing you care about most. We are still friends but it's just not the same and i miss her every fucking day. I wish i knew what to do....

[beautynchaos]

i think what separates me from everyone else is i’m angry but i don’t explode on people all the time. i just let it sit in my chest/stomach while overthinking about things that make me more mad or even sad. i’ve been doing this for so long & now i can’t even work without reaching a limit & wanting hurt someone or just lash out n break down. it’s gotten worse. & the one thing i hate the most is tht it’s like i’m scared to react out of anger whenever people do cross a boundary & i just let them annoy me or walk over me. it makes me feel less of a man.

[natiwati]

I guess I suddenly have anger issues now :’)

[yeseniaarredondo]

I find myself in the middle of an extremely difficult negotiation. I just want to yell how the other parties are soooo wrong even though I know that will shoot back with a worsened situation. That's why I landed here ... in search of something, anything to calm me. Alone the soothing pace and voice tone is kind of a little relief. Have you anything about anger management?

I repress hurt to "unpack" later but sometimes it slips out in stressful situations as anger or feeling overwhelmed
