Abuse can come in many forms. If other people’s treatment of you harms or hurts…
Uncontrollable anger is a problem for the sufferer themselves, those in their environment and especially for those in a close relationship with them. While anger itself is a normal emotion, overly aggressive, violent or threatening behaviour is both a personal and a social problem, which frequently leads to relationship breakdowns, legal difficulties and the inability to fully function as a member of society
Those who suffer with anger management issues often use their anger as a façade to hide their own feelings. Anger is frequently turned inwards, so that while a person seems normal enough on the outside, on the inside they may be distraught about personal issues and the state of their world. Internal anger management has powerful knock-on effects such as personal loathing, addiction and eating disorders, which may lead sufferers to self-harm.
Anger is a disruptive emotion that affects the ability to think clearly. Frequent and uncontrollable anger can lead to impulsive and erratic behaviour. Therapy helps people find the root cause of anger so that the sufferer can develop methods to predict, understand and control outbursts. In this way, true anger management becomes possible.
