This anger one has been at therapy in the past. He does not have conversations. He says NO loud in my head and if that don't work he will say NO loud and short to my therapist. He is angry and can be aggressive. Most times if he starts to boil over I will get up and go into the bathroom and let him calm down. Or I will end the session because I don't think I can calm him down. He doesn't talk much, but he is filled with feelings of anger. He has expressed himself in the past (out side of therapy)by smashing things, punching things. I am just not sure how far he could go in therapy.
