Has anyone had anger issues and does anyone know of anger management treatments or is it best just seeing my doctor
My neighbour (who has a variety of autoimmune diseases) has severe anger problems and has found the Expert Patient Programme quite helpful (it's a free course about living with chronic conditions).
It is better to see your GP and he should get you the right professional help. Don't ignore this, you may end up hurting people you love and care for.
Well done for accepting and admitting you have an issue, so many don't and cause a deal of distress. Good luck. X.
Hello Yanto
MIND offer anger management courses. You don't need to be referred by your GP, although you should really discuss it with them.
Good luck. X
Thanks for all your help. I'll see my gp and take it from there x
No, but I've been guilty of causing others to have anger issues with me.. does
that count ? I've heard that it takes all of the family to do their part so the person
that is angry doesn't cause the family to tip toe around them..=)
The thing is I don't shout or argue, I make nasty comments or put people down. Doesn't matter who I'm talking to. Why should my family change because I can't accept my illnesses, feeling guilty and useless makes me angry and waiting, for help or someone to do a job I can't, makes me even more irate. I've had RA for eight years and fibro a bit longer so it's about time I did something about it.
Yikes, I get panic attacks but only really if I'm in crowds and I also have RLS but I found that taking a folic acid tablet everyday has got rid of it. I have to take folic acid because of the methotrexate I take for RA and I only took them when I thought I needed too. I couldn't keep my legs still and in bed trying to sleep I'd virtually run a marathon but that's all stopped now and I can only put it down to the folic acid through taking them daily x
I'm glad you have decided to do something about this, it is very depressing and tiring having to live with somrone who puts you down all the time. I just upped and left one day, no warning ,no nothing, just couldn' t take one more miserable day.
Good luck
Hi - I have anger issues too. I got very angry today but I do shout and swear. I did it in a public place too because I spilled tea over myself and scalded myself but nobody apart from my sister helped me. the staff were horrible. Probably because I was angry and distressed. I used to be very quiet and shy but now I let my anger out, but too much. I think the nasty comments and putting people down is harder to deal with. I have done this only as a reaction to when people do it to me. Two wrongs don't make a right though. I wish I could let things go sometimes. I try but when tired and anxious as I was today I don't always succeed. Good luck - I mentioned it to my GP but I'm not sure they take anger in women as seriously as they do with men? Just a thought.
I can get very frustrated and I lash out at my husband it is mainly because I can not get him to understand me as I can not always get t he words in the right order same with other people I can get angry then also because they look at me stupid and really think I am thick but I know I am not and it is really frustrating because you know what you want to say but cannot get it out in the right order .
