I am starting to notice that I have anger management issues. I am not physically violent towards anyone nor am I verbally abusive.

Little things will set me off and fill my body with rage. I figuratively feel like punching someone...etc. I just get so full up anger and frustration. These bouts of anger and rage can last several minutes to hours.

These are some of the things that cause me to feel very angry and frustrated:

> I have 2 private parking stalls where I live and occasionally someone will use my vistor's parking stall. Sometimes its only for an hour sometimes its for a whole day. Where I live our parking stalls are assigned to us and are private. When someone parks in my vacant parking stall I become extremely angry and frustrated. My body is filled with rage and I feel like my space is being violated.

> My neighbours live nearby and when they make noise that is in my mind annoying I get very angry.

> Someone is repeatedly unlocking the driver's side door of my car. I have a car alarm installed and a steering wheel lock. Whomever is doing this just unlocked the driver's side door and doesn't open the door (gain access to the inside of my car). I now live a life filled with anger and frustration because I feel like I am constantly being harrassed.

I need help to control my anger management issues because I am starting to feel like my dad who my doctors have told me that he probably had bipolar disorder. The difference is he was physically and verbally abusive. He would have temper tantrums. He had an explosive temper.

I don't want to become like my dad in anyway.

How do I control my anger, rage, and frustration? I feel physically ill after a bout of anger...etc.
Thanks for this!
