But sometimes it can boil over at inopportune or inappropriate moments. If angry outbursts occur on a regular basis, that may be a sign of an anger-management problem. Angry outbursts can negatively affect relationships with family, friends, co-workers and even complete strangers. If you find yourself fuming over the smallest thing, it might be a good idea to practice some calming measures to get your anger under control. Here are some anger-management tips, courtesy of the Mayo Clinic: --Take a self-imposed "time-out." Count to 10 before react- ing or leaving the situation. -- Pour your anger into physical activity, such as ex- ercise. --Practice deep-breathing exercises, visualize a relaxing scene, or repeat a calming word or phrase to calm and soothe you. Listening to music, painting or writing in a journal can also reduce the anger level. --Consider what you'll say carefully before you speak. You don't want to end up blurting out something that will haunt you. --Work with the person who angered you to identify solutions to the situation. -- Practice a bit of syntax. Use "I" statements when de- scribing the problem to avoid placing blame. For instance, say "I'm upset you didn't help with the housework this evening," instead of, "You should have helped with the housework." -- Let bygones be just that. Forgive the person that caused you stress and anger. You can never expect every- one to behave exactly as you'd like. -- Unleash some humor in a heated moment. Brevity can work wonders in defusing anger. But avoid sarcasm, as it's nothing more than another form of unhealthy expression. --Maintain an anger journal to identify situations that set you off and monitor your reactions. --Finally, if your anger seems on the brink of becoming a violent episode, seek counseling from a psy- chotherapist or an anger management professional |
