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 need someone that will listen and help me with my anger. I have no money to go talk to someone, that's why I'm coming to yall. My wife has left me and took the kids on Monday. She won't talk to me so I don't know if it was because of me or what. Any help is greatly appreciated. My supervisor says I should talk to someone and not keep it bottled up.

Many of these boards are almost at a standstill. Guess it's because of summer.

I'm sure it's painful to have her leave and take the children. Staying busy or exercise -- anything that uses up energy, will help you to
feel a little better. If she's open to marriage counseling, if you could
manage 3 or 4 sessions, it could make a difference.

Sending good thoughts.

I think it's great that you are willing to talk about your issues and you seem open to make changes. I think that if your anger has reached a point where it has caused your wife to leave and take the children, you would benefit more from seeing a therapist. Your insurance company should pay for visits. If not, or if you cannot afford the copay- there are many community mental health agencies that will see clients on a sliding scale of income. You may only have to pay 5 dollars a visit. You seem motivated, please look into seeing a professional. They will be able to offer you help that a support group cannot.

Thanks everyone, I have the ball rolling on getting the help that I need. I just wish my wife would see that I'm willing to change.
