Anger Issues

Since I was a kid and forever I would bottle it up, always. I think this is why I'm quick to get mad and want to fight somebody. But now it's getting even worse to the point I just wanna fight and hurt people and I'm super pissed out of nowhere. Just wanna fight and break things, I really need to relieve and release stress. It's just been building up forever and I'm two seconds away from letting it all out on someone.

Join a box,karate etc club.I was like you when i was very young ,almost every week i was fighting with somebody at school and than i joined a jujitsu club and i calmed down:).Sometimes I still have some urges to mutilate somebody who pisses me of but i try to ignore them.

See if you can find the book 'Calm Down' by Paul Hauck in the library?
It was very helpful to me. (Though I think I'd still need it, lol wanna find it 2nd hand somewhere...)

There are some other helpful books too...

That's what I'm considering with the very little free time I have. Either filled with school or work now. and Im doing bad in school which i cannot afford which makes me even more pissed

I have short, intense bursts of anger sometimes too. They arise when I feel someone's done me wrong, and it doesn't even have to be anything major. The other day I was out walking and a car drove past me slowly but way too close to me, and I got pissed and kicked the tail light as it went by which caused an ugly scene. It's always stupid little things like that, which in theory I should be above, but for some reason I have an incredibly short fuse when I feel that someone's stepped on my toes. I don't know why or how it even happens. My family has often commented that they have to walk on eggshells around me and it's caused some nasty arguments between me and the women I've dated too.

Fighting definitely isn't worth it, I went down that road, barely dodged having a criminal record.

Just do anything physical, seriously. I circuit box, used to take judo and kickboxing, which I'd like to get back into, but anything physical releases that energy.

Go run sprints, do some pushups, situps, pullups, or if you're feeling adventurous do burpees until you pass out. :)

get a physical check-up. you might be suffering from some disease that makes you irritable. if you don't have any, i suggest you make some time to relax or meditate everyday. maybe 20-30 mins. and engage in physical activities. if you're located in an area with relatively high temperature, try cooling down. drink plenty of water and shower more than once a day.

Dangerious way to be my friend. What happens if you come across someone who is equally as angry or worse still even more angry than you. They could whip out a gun or pull out a knife, or just beat you really really bad.

Joining a martial arts or MMA club is a good way to release anger, plus you'll be getting fitter in the process.

I've been the same, for years. Difficult not to become violent in an argument, but proud to have avoided it. That luck is rooted in a deep, however very sad, realisation that 'the law' is not worth breaking. Those rules are my biggest culprit of my misery.

My ex had anger and energy problems. He was always on edge and getting into fights on purpose because he figured it was his only way to let out the anger he constantly built up just by sitting in traffic, getting a speeding ticket, hearing someone say something stupid... etc.
Everything costs money. Most people do not have an excess of money. If that is enough alone to piss you off; you're always going to be angry.
He was always angry.

He came with me for one of my checkups and I had my doctor run some bloodtests on him and check him out as well.
Turns out, he had an excess of testosterone caused by an existing problem.
-- fixed that problem and he was able to relax alot more often and not be so stressed out and angry.

Ive been a rageaholic for aslong as I can remember. Ive been to anger management for years and ive been through the whole pills thing. Boxing helped cool my anger and taught me discipline and stuff. I still rage like nothing but I find its more internal these days,it doesnt show on the outside as much as it used to. But I still have short bursts of anger that can really come out at times.

join the marines - they have lots of constructive ways to help channel your energy

mhhh, imho if someone joins military he should totally believe in his country. In vietnam many didn't even know why they were there fighting.
