What do I do? I'm going to lose my wife. If I don't get a hold of my anger.?

My marriage is in jeopardy. The problem isn't my wife. She is awesome. We both love each other greatly. The problem is me. I'm never happy. Always mad. and not just stub your toe mad. It's Kick the hell out of anyone I see. We fight alot and most of it is me. Sometimes it's bad. Things have happened that I didn't mean for it to happen. She has always forgiven me. She deserves better. I've been like this all my life. I've tried to change. Iv' been on Riddlin and all sorts of drugs. I've seen doctors. But I still wake up extremely mad. I'm afraid I will lose it and hurt my wife or my friends. The only option that I have come up with is to leave and go some place where everyone will be safe from my anger. But I don't want to.

Do you exercise? You might benefit from a 2 hour exercise before even getting started with your day. Exhausted peolpe have no time to be angry. I would continue to see a doctor or try another therapist.

Also, your anger seems to be about you. Try doing more for others. Do charity work, volunteer, etc.

also, mood can be affected by what you eat. Lay of sugar, and caffeine.

Instead of the drug route try therapy to find out why you have these anger issues. You could try yoga or relaxation techniques to help you chill. If your marriage means that much to you, you will do whatever it takes.

listen, you need counsling and not just put on pills ok. You need to talk about your problems and find the source of anger.

also, take up boxing or some kind of contact sport ok. This will get much aggression out.

I wish you luck with your marriage.

Getting away isn't going help you, you will still feel the anger and violence no matter where you go. You need to see a Professional to show you how to control your behavior, relaxation techniques and changing the way you think and react to a certain situation. Maybe even take something to calm you down (anti Axiety pills ). But you have to do everything you can to help yourself so that you can save your marriage. Good Luck


Loving Wife
Well admitting that you have a problem is the first step. So that is great. The next thing I would do is locate an anger management program and enroll yourself in it. Secondly, find some family counseling for the both of you so you can repair the damage that you have caused.

If you both love each other I am sure she would be willing to assist you in getting help.

Good Luck.

Go to the book store TODAY and get some books on Anger Management. It is worth the $30.00 or so you might spend. The books turned my life around.

Also, you can get professional counseling for anger management. Call a counselor.

Good luck.

I would recommend a book title, but I don't remember what books I purchased. And it doesn't really matter - there are lots of books out there on the subject. Flip through a few and you will see one or two that you like. I hope it helps you.

You need counseling and maybe different medications. If your wife is willing to stick with you while you work out your medication level then she's a good woman that you shouldn't leave unless you become a danger to her.

I guess it depends on if your anger is a chemical imbalance, or an underlying event you've never come to terms with.

Maybe when you feel the anger coming leave the situation and take a deep breath, count to ten and see if the situation is worth blowing up over.

Really there is no point in getting angry over most things, because we don't have control over them. Why get angry about something you can't control, it won't change anything and it just fills you with negative energy. If it's something you can control it might warrant some anger, but that still doesn't solve the problem.

Good luck. Maybe some counseling will help you.


Now that I think about it, I had a friend/ coworker that had a severe anger problem, possibly similar to yours. He got so angry that when he would clench his teeth he broke a couple of them. I remembered him saying they put him on some kind of tranquilizer of some sort. Whatever it was - I never saw him get angry over anything afterwards. I do remember him saying once it made him tired. I just thought I'd share that to kind of give you some hope that there is a solution out there for you.

counseling and therapy......also go to a doctor, you may need to be medicated

You've come a long way to recognizing the problem. Check out the library for anything you can find on anger control and management. Think about enrolling in a class. Go to your nearest large bookstore and browse the self-help section. (You'll be amazed at the wide range of things people need self-help on.)

This is something you can do. The more control you gain over your anger, the higher will be your self-esteem. You will like yourself a whole lot better when you are a calmer, more likeable guy. Think of yourself as a sweet, cuddly teddy bear. Remember, a stronger sense of self-esteem is the reward that waits for you.

Enroll in anger management and seek not only relationship counseling, but individual counseling as well. If you think you could hurt someone, then you need to stay away from people when you feel your anger kicking in.

She doesn't deserve it, and frankly neither do you. The only way this will resolve is to seek professional help and find out the underlying reasons for your anger.

Sounds like you need a better doctor.


Borderlineangel
Sounds like you have some deep rooted issues that you have never addressed...I have a family memeber who acts you as you do and when I talked to him about his problem it turns out that this individual doesn't like himself so he is always looking to argue and fight with everyone in the family as well as his friends...he has now lost all of us and all his friends because he doesn't want to take responsibility for his actions..... please get counselling before you lose the people in your life.... you'll be happy you did and most likely the people who love you will support you through it all. ...good luck

You don't solve a problem by looking the other way. You need to continue getting help. Leaving her and your friends will not solve the problem.

Seriously.......anger management class.......counseling........support group. Also a support group for your wife and possibly counseling. Get a hold of yourself. You're obviously thinking of your wife because you have started to ask for help. Good Job!


Baby #1 due May22nd :)
You need counseling...is there something that made you angry in your childhood....I mean what else could it be, be happy your alive wake up and realize you have another day to spend with your wife, maybe you should seek god for answers....seriously just pray about it... prayer works I can bet my life on it....Good luck! I wish you the best !!!

Well, since you've tried medications, the goal is to find out WHY you have such anger issues. Medications and similar are only dealing with the symptoms and surfacy issues.

You've overcome a lot simply by admitting and confronting that you in fact have a problem.

Counseling is definately a plus for you. Also, it will show to your wife that you are serious enough to deal with it and that you love and respect her enough to have a 3rd party. It will also bring some security to her knowing that you are not just trying to handle it yourself; because it has not worked thus far.

If you are a religous person at all, you may want to get to a church and speak with a minister to help pray with you. There are many things at force right now in your mind, heart and your past that seem to have a strong hold on your emotions.

Make it work

Go to anger management classes.

Anger Management classes is a great way to learn how you can channel your anger in different ways. You may find that some methods are better or worse than another.

You should consider asking your doctor about anger management and figuring out an treatment that will work out for you. You might have to prescribe different meds and set a personal regime where you allow yourself to be angry for 30 minutes but constructively channeling that anger to a more appropriate way. i.e. excercise.

You might also want to figure out what is making you angry and figure if the anger is caused by that event or whether if you are in a foul mood. You can try positive thinking where instead of being angry, you can think of ways or methods that would help make the situation better.

You've taken the first steps by coming onto Y!A. You really should seek some therapy, medications only do so much. Therapy will help, whether it's one on one with a therapist, group therapy, anger management classes, or even couples counseling with your wife. Talk to your wife, don't leave her. You're going to need her support if you really want to change your ways. I wish you the best of luck.

Go on an anger management course or theorpy. If you can think of some excersizes that calm you down, running, breathing or some hobby you enjoy.
Maybe take a break.

It sounds like you may need anger management therapy to teach you how to channel and control your anger. It is certainly worth a try.

You don't have to do that. Just repent and turn from your sins and turn to Jesus. Then ask God to deliver you from a spirit of anger. He can do it. and you will be more peaceful.

Try reading pslams and proverbs in your bible. It will help heal you and give you more peace.

Also consult him and ask where anger first came in in your life. That would better help to solve the problem.

God Bless You my friend. I will be praying for your family.

O yes and tell your wife these things too. The best way to overcome a problem is by first admitting that you have one. And you have done that. That took courage, strength, and total humility.
You are on the the right start!

Have you ever been able to discover what the anger stems from? THis can be therapeutic if you find out WHY you are so angry and talk about it with a prfessional.

You say you've seen doctors but were they MD's or have you seen a therapist? You desperately need to get to the root of the problem. I've had some pretty bad issues with anger myself but I know where it comes from & I'm able to control it now. I'm not against prescription drugs at all but it needs to be combined with therapy. You can't just medicate. It's nothing more than a band aid. You need to figure out what is sparking this. Is there something that triggers you? Does your father or mother have a history of violence or a bad temper? Is this something that was acceptable in your upbringing? Are you acting out because you never had a voice before? There could be so many reasons for this but it's up to you to do the work. You can't just want something bad enough & expect it to go away. You need to take responsibility & correct it.

You need to check yourself into an anger management facility. You do not want to abuse or hurt anyone and it is the only choice that you have.

Sorry but you answered your own question. You need to go away for a while like rehab for anger management. ask yourself why are you mad? You say you have a great wife friends and family, what makes you so pissed off? Figure that out, try to change and move on with your life. Good luck
