Anger Issues
Anger Issues
The forum just ate my previous attempt at this which makes me a little grumpy which is funny because I was writing about anger issues.
Hi, I'm Bo and I seem to vacillate between being very angry and not feeling anything at all. The good news is that I am able to keep myself from hurting people physically or emotionally. The bad news is that I have to push all of that anger down, and it comes out in very strange and shitty ways sometimes.
I'm looking forward to learning a lot from you guys and helping where I can.

Re: Anger Issues
Hello bocephus, welcome to our little forum. Sorry the forum ate your first post.
I like Eckhart Tolle's _A_New_Earth_ . It talks about diminishing the ego, and anger frequently comes from egoistic reactions.
Frankly, I have problems with anger, and the best way that I have to deal with it is to avoid situations where I know my anger will flare up, or briefly meditate just before going into a situation that I know can trigger my anger.
Please take care, all the best, we here are cheering for you and for your greatest today and tomorrow.

Re: Anger Issues
I always knew Sterling Archer would have some mental health issues in need of examination!
Joking aside (what episode is that where Archer has a top hat, by the way?), I know that you are not alone and I wish you only the very best here in forum-town.

Re: Anger Issues
Hi, Bocephus (did I spell that right?). I empathize with you regarding anger issues. That is one of the most difficult challenges I am faced with in therapy. But things are coming along. A New Earth is a great book (sometimes the library has audiobooks).
