Any advice with anger during recovery?

I find myself angry and mad and rude to people close to me. I self- isolate and hide away. I'm mad at everything. I can't find any good in anything.

It's becoming a issue!

yep I’ve had days like this - I found it easier to have a sleep and try to restart my brain. It’s not others fault and sometimes a rest can really work. Maybe another option could be to see a doctor?? Maybe try some medication that in the short term can help with hormones / moods / sleep ???? Take care xoxox

When you feel that impulse anger walk away as with me it's so quick and will get you out of trouble situations.Its hard but I've started to identify the cause of anger like noises or certain antagonists and try to let the emotion go over like a wave.very hard though.

I find that happens most when I am tired, hungry, am overdoing things or just don't feel well. Taking a time out/ break seems to help me. I over react and know I do, yet can't seem to catch myself to stop it. I catch after I've finally calmed down and think that was really stupid to have wasted all that energy on something so unimportant. Hopefully something I've said will be of value for you too.

Not what you're looking for?
