Anger Management Support Group
Anger management commonly refers to therapeutic techniques by which someone with excessive or uncontrollable anger can control or reduce their emotions. Typical examples include the use of deep breathing and meditation as a means to relaxation. Psychologists recommend a balanced approach, which both controls the emotion and allows it to express itself in a healthy way.
I am in a very unfortunate housing situation. I have mentioned this before in a posting but this part of my problem is different. I am being forced to move out of a rental property. I am living with my mother because this rental is being sold and it was constantly being shown by a real estate agent. I am not well enough to keep living and having my life constantly interrupted by the showing of the rental, so I am living with my mother. I moved a lot of my prized processions into her house to prevent people looking at my place from possibly stealing them.
But the problem is that mom keeps touching my stuff and keeping it for herself. She hides my stuff and later it just reappears I can not take her manipulation of my stuff and me. She orders me around with household demands, like "clean up your room" and "get these housing documents ready for Section 8" that I can not keep up with. This just "hurts my brain" because I do not remember things and the get under stress because I can not focus. I have SAD. She knows because of my SAD and low income that she can control me. We have gotten into minor fights because she just makes me furious! She has made me so angry that I have broken 2 doors (very unlike me) and curse at her constantly. If I get too mad, then she could call the police and/or stick me in the hospital. She enjoys threatening these things- they are her weapon!
But she would probably never do these things. How do I gain control over her and assert myself? The good thing is that I am moving to an apartment on January 1, 2014. I have to deal with the process of moving my stuff into the apartment without her stealing what I "should not have" according to her. She takes and hides my things and I am very poor. How do I gain control over her?

She really has a problem and you have to treat her like that. Give her that look of concern instead of rage.
As for your SAD, exercise and a gluten free diet are usually very very helpful. I am not sure about the gluten but the fact is, wheat is a GMO with triple the gluten than it used to have. Many many folk can't digest it at such levels and that causes you to actually become tired AND DEPRESSED.
