I know it's not the highest score ever and I'm probably doing better than others. It says Coping, Anxiety, and Relationship Issues are the problem - which are all tied together.


For myself, I mainly came here because my wife has been complaining about Anger Management Issues. I figure it's only fair I take a look at things since she's been dealing with quite a load for the last year - and actually quite longer to be completely honest.

@QuietRobot996 welcome to MSF My Support Forums. I am sorry you are experiencing challenges. Working on relationship issues can be complex. Have you considered getting a marriage counselor?

If you are trying to work on your own anger, mindfulness can be a great option to help manage by creating a pause between what other people say and what we say. That space can allow us to not react with an imflammatory comment. Here is one way to start the process of anger management.

If your wife wants to work on anger management issues of her own, you can help by not saying things that might imflame the situation. Sometimes this means nodding a lot and "I hear you" and other non verbal cues you are listening.
