I think having bipolar disorder makes me prone to being waaay more angrier than the average Joe. I have to remind myself that it is a mood disorder and that I have to learn to control it. I came across an article that gave me a simple, straightforward approach to dealing with it--Retreat-Rethink-Respond. Believe it or not, it does help me. During aggravating situations I find myself repeating it in my head. It doesn't always help because there are times when I will say the first thing that pops into my head which I regret later. But it's a start.

How do you respond to anger? What is your recipe for dealing with it?
