Ok thanks to both of you. I was always taught that assertiveness is an alternative to aggression. Weird. Well I'm reading a book on the stock market one or two pages a day so it's going ok. Sorry for the late reply I've been super busy and it's hard to read big posts all at once. Thanks again for al...

Okay I had a couple classes. I told her about the cortisol trick and she hadn't heard about it. My homework was to draw my anger and fill out this test. It said I was a bit of a doormat but I know I'm not that. I did learn that I may have not learned how to deal with my anger from a young age...stil...

Yeah that was suspicious to me too. I dont click things like that. What do these gurus do? Is it anger management? I've been doing much better with anger over the past few weeks. I also attended my first anger management class the other day. I hope that works out well too. Sorry I havent got back to...

Yeah I dont know why I have a bad attention span..I guess other thoughts intrude. I have been trying to smile more because I know conditioning can cause you to associate the smile with good feelings. Kind of working in reverse. Kyle, can you tell me what to search on YouTube? I dont like clicking ra...

Ok thank you to you both for all your input. I appreciate it. You've given me a lot to think about. I may get to one of those books one day when my brain is more focused. I will try my best to see the bright side of situations.

Thanks a lot!

Okay that's a lot to read. I'm going to read it little.by little over the next few days or more. With my head Injury and adhd it's very difficult to read a lot but i will try to get to it. I appreciate your time very much. I stopped myself from exploding again today! Very happy. I will get back to y...

Okay, yeah I have a very hard time accepting I'm not the best...I hate losing more than I love winning. I am a sore loser. But before my accident I always won everything so I guess I never learned how to lose. Now I'm faced with the reality of having to accept that I'm not the best. I will try to th...

A full plate? Its overflowing! I dont have quit in my DNA so its impossible for me to quit. So I had a milestone yesterday. I did the open jaw breathing when I was about to snap and it worked even though I did it wrong! That horrible feeling inside me only lasted 5 minutes instead of the rest of the...

One more thing. I'm not sure how important this is for anger but i have really bad chronic pain. I'm on fentanyl patches for them and I'm trying to get off them. I'm taking less and less. That puts me on edge as my body is aching badly most of the day.

I just noticed that I do clench my jaw. I hear a sentence on TV or I think of a sentence and I clench one side of my jaw then the other, alternating for every syllable. This is a bad habit probably caused by my OCD and it drives me nuts. I only noticed doing it with my breathing and bending my finge...

Oh wow, i didn't know about any of that. I dont grind my teeth at night that I'm aware of and I do have some control. I used to put holes in my walls every time I got mad, now I dont hit holes in my walls but SOMETIMES I hit my bedside table or even my head (I know, this is exacerbating the problem,...

Please, someone help me. Anger is ruining my life.

Hi, I have been angry my whole life but it's worse lately. I have a little bit of OCD, I have PTSD, ADHD,, bi polar, and I've had multiple head injuries. Sometimes I feel happy then I'll lose at a video game and I will explode. Or I will fight with my parents (I'm currently staying with them as I am...
