are you getting any help wiht this? seeing a therapist? do yu know what is setting you off?
I have PTSD and somtimes i get outbursts of anger - i have to either
take myself away formt eh situation until i calm down
or
try to calm myself
there are some good grounding techniques in the top of the PTSD board - theses work for anger grounding too.
after the event i always try to see what set me off and talk to myself as if i was a friend and see if i can work it out
i wirte it down if i need to and then aks myself the truth to thoses statements
for example
that woman was an idiot - she cut in front of me!!!
TRUTH : she may have lost concentration for a moment and made a mistake - we're all human and we make mistakes - no-one is perfect
I dont know what is going on in her life - so i cant judge her
dont know if this helps..... the only other thing i would say is dont get angry wiht yourself when you get angry - that only makes it worse - and dont beat yourself up wiht "i shouldnt get angry!" "im so stupid"
that doesnt help either
take care and let us know how you are doing ok
