I definately had an anger-management day last week, an outburst at a job from hell that lost me the job in a few days. Result is of course total life stress situation (which this web site has helped calm enormously) ... but the total impact of anger outburst and it\'s attendant result and consequence is a total subjegation of anger as a whole unit of my life. Big time lesson learned.

I understand. I am in the same field.

Anger management helped me to be a nicer person and more likable, but didn\'t help my internal stress much. Meditation, visualization, and adopting a spiritual practice has helped me the most to manage itnernal stress.

does it work? have you found peace?

Anyone can feel anger, its a normal emotion to relieve frustration, it is how it is managed that equates to whether it is good or bad. If the anger ends with a person being singled out to where they are abused verbally, physically, property is destroyed, or threats are mad, then it needs URGENT attention.

I am all for anger management classes. Many people even professionals do not necessarily have insight to what they are doing. It was pointed out to me during a stressful time, I yelled to much, this was very valuable information as it made me reassess my reactions.

If children are involved it is imperative that it be addressed as it effects their future and theraoy IMHO may be in order, so the underlying etiology can be pigeonholed.

Ive completed anger management. And even though Ive completed it. Its still a very big part of my daily life. And will be forever. I never thought being a woman I would have an anger problem. But when I reconzied that I did, I got some help. And it changed my life. And Im a much better person for it.

hello...just wanted to add that my boss at the hospital took anger management classes but i think he needs his money back!

i also have trouble of anger management at work, usually because its highly stressful and a very negative enviorment. even my friends and coworkers avoid me when im getting stressed, as i vent to them in a way that i have to come back and appologize later. Have tried prayer, yoga and relaxation techniques but it doesnt help when im in the middle of the action...any other recomendations?? I dont want to be known as a bitter and angry person all my life.

I have never taken an Anger Management class, but I probably need one. I have alot of anger that needs venting. I see that I need to manage it at work in a more productive way.

It scares me sometimes how quickly i can turn from good mood to bad. one minute everythings wonderful, the nex...lookout dragon lady on the loose...then even later im depressed and crying...do you think this can be more than anger and stress?
