My name is Tony and I HV been fighting rage for most of my life. even at an early age I was angry because I didn't like anything about myself. And as I matured it only got worse.i felt unattractive,l unintelligent, and unwanted. this made me suspicious of anyone trying to get close to me. once they were close I treated them badly and tried to chase them away. I have had many decent people attempt to befriend me just to ruin those efforts by irrational outburst. my anger has also caused me serious injury. I was shot in the back of the head and in the chest. I was also stabbed in the chest and my throat was slit in a fight I could've avoided. alcohol did play a role in several incidents but anger is the root cause. I am not sure how to control this and I think now is the time to release these harmful thoughts. any good advice would be appreciated.thanx for listening to my first post ever. Redemption

Rage is no stranger, but I'd consider that it stems from upbringing and a rotten past.
It may not help the underlying upset you feel, but for me at least, being a Christian worked the rage right out of me.

You may find a steep drop in your energy if you've been using rage to empower yourself. I know it's enjoyable, but just like any drug, it doesn't come without side effects of withdrawal. When you're angry, I'm thinking it likely makes you feel like you could rip the head off of someone fairly easily. That's adrenaline working with your anger, and it actually poisons you a bit.

Thank u somebody!! my past wasn't traumatic, just my way of thinking. I am a Christian. I went to Lutheran schools thru high school. My situation is different because I don't hv socio-economic problems to blame my anger on. It an internal dislike for myself

Well, God can take your anger away.

Hating yourself because you hate yourself for being so dislikable to yourself is likely the problem. If you actually have some sort of control over your life and your mind allows it, try targeting the things you dislike, and decide to like those things or change them.
