Anger ManagementWhat has anger management got to do with self-help? Y'know, if another person asks me that I swear my blood will boil it really will!... Ha ha. Actually, it is a good question and one I considered carefully as I researched this website. Anger is such a harsh, stern word after all, and most of the other topics covered at The Self Help Collective seem positive and upbeat. Well... the simple fact is, if you're angry (and you spend a lot of your time being angry) then you're not happy! Not that there's anything wrong with anger, or being angry - annoying stuff happens to all of us, after all - but your anger does need to be managed. And hopefully this anger management page will at least point you in the right direction, and you might have the odd giggle too. (Have you checked out these amusing Anger Management Movie YouTube videos, for example?)
Anger ManagementAnger Management - what I say...When it comes to anger management, I can't help thinking (as you'll soon see) about the Buddha's thoughts. He said some wise stuff in his time, but this really hits home for me... "Holding onto anger is like grasping onto a
hot coal I know, for example, that I don't do anger very well. I don't express my anger at the right time and in the right place - I let it stew. For years and years and years. (Ah, the joy of siblings!) And then I'm on the look out for the first thing 'wrong' that that person does to me and blammo! - a mountain out of a molehill, an ugly scene, tears etc. Ugly, ugly, ugly and so easily avoidable... with anger management. So I know that it is me that suffers with this unexpressed anger and I am working on it (should you be concerned ;-) ). But I bet I'm not the only one with such a problem. (This (fictional) man has anger issues, for example, though you may not appreciate it on this witty(?) page about the Buddha and his quotations.) Yes, we probably all have anger management problems and could all probably benefit from some anger management tips from time to time.
