If you are unable to deal with anger, it can cause many problems such as disruption of social relationships with friends, family members or colleagues, and can affect your health. The problem of anger control is a mental illness that should not be ignored. If you start to feel like you can't control your anger, consider these tips:
Express your anger after you calm down
Make sure you think clearly and carefully about the problem before letting out your anger. Try to stay calm when you express your concerns and desires. It's important not to hurt or control other people with your anger.
Think before you speak
It's easy to say hurtful things that you will regret when you get angry. Before speaking, take some time to think about whether your words are acceptable or not. You can reflect on if a similar situation has happened that you used to get your anger out.
Healthy life
Exercise and physical activity can relieve stress effectively. You can exercise, walk or run. The more stressed you are, the easier it will be to get angry with other people. Try to make time for physical exercise every day.
Understand the root cause of anger
Understanding why you are angry and under what circumstances can help you prevent anger. If you continue to feel angry for no apparent reason, you can consult a doctor.
Identifying possible solutions
Instead of regretting what happened, you can try to solve the problem. Remind yourself that anger won't solve the problem and will only make things worse.
Practice relaxation skills
Practicing deep breathing techniques or imagining calming situations can help calm you down. Some people try listening to music, reading books, journaling or practicing yoga, which can help with relaxation.
Don't hold grudges
Try not to let anger and negative feelings cloud your positive feelings. You can remember that forgiveness is the key to releasing tension and not letting yourself sink into hurt or feeling unfair.
Use humor to release tension
Humor can help you deal with what makes you angry. Remember that any tension can be relieved by a smile or a positive look at the situation.
Respect others
Avoid criticizing or blaming others, which can increase tension and show you don't respect others. Try to understand your own problems before judging others. Even if you are angry, you can show your courtesy and respect so as not to damage your social relationships with other people.
Know when to seek help
Learning to control anger is a challenge for everyone. Consider seeking help with anger issues if your anger gets out of hand, causes you to do things that make you regret or hurt those around you.
