Absolutely! The harder you try to control those bad emotions, the worse they will get and become harder to control. The only way to get a handle on your problem is to find out what's causing them in the first place.
Don't screw up like I did and wait 20 years to deal with your outbursts. Once you realize you have a problem (which you obviously have) things will only get worse the more you try to control them, as I did all those years ago, and sadly, I chose to ignore them until I found myself out of control and completely clueless as to why I was acting that way. I have spent the last decade figuring all of this out, and it would have been so much easier if I had dealt with it when it first started instead of waiting until my life was falling down around my ears and my marriage almost ended.
I hope you find the help you need soon and please keep us posted on your progress.
