Need advice for anger management

reply to post by swan001


Jes swan thank you for reminding me of that i'd forgot about us being bad tempered so and so's, you cheeky wee monkey

I had anger issues and dealing with them is complicated. The first step is knowing you have a problem. (congrats)

I took a long hard look in the mirror and didn't like what I saw. It was hard to identify the source of my frustration... what was causing me to be angry so much. I thought to my self that if I kept going, I would become a monster. People were afraid of me and I hated it.

It's a lot of working on yourself and exploring what makes you tick... and knowing that you may not like what you find. I joined martial arts, I studied many disciplines and still keep up with my swordplay.

23 years later, I still get angry, but I ask myself why. If it's for a good reason, I state my opinion and let it go. If I'm angry for a stupid reason, I let it go.

Really objectively examining yourself and your emotions is one of the hardest things to do... but it's worth it.

Glad to be of service, but... this "us" you were referring to, was it the quebecers, the French, the Mediterraneans, or the Irish?

You're a man, correct?

Exercise boosts testosterone production. A lot of testosterone in the bloodstream tends to make men aggressive and short-tempered.

Exercise less and the problem will go away.

yes a male specimen,, but i am wondering that will test. levels balance out eventually, even if keeping my routines?
gotta say that i didnt even think about test, levels, when i started to exercise ...

really good advice from you all,,

i noticed today, that the absolute, stop, and think,,,,, (think hard) ---worked pretty well...
something about stopping your body is calming,,
i have noticed earlier, that pasing around isnt a good idea,,,

Buddhists meditation training begins with 'all-round mindfulness', in which the student tries to keep his or her mind focused closely on the awareness of whatever they happen to be doing. Whenever you mind wanders, you return it to whatever you're doing—even if you're just sitting in a chair. It can be very helpful.

You'd have to ask a doctor whether your testosterone levels will stabilise with regular exercise.
