Oh you still believe in fairy tales like Santa, the Easter Bunny, and free market competition principles?

 
Whenver I get angry, I just load up some game and in a few minutes, it takes my mind away from the anger, and I feel fine.
Unless its Tron and you have to pass a grid race. >.>

Or if it's taking down SF Dragons in FS.
Taking down dragons is great fun. It actually allows me to COMPLETELY focus on something else, instead of being distracted all the time.

Teenage years are harder for some than others - you just have realize that after 15 or 18 years living with your family, they and you know all of the buttons that can be pushed and they will be pushed.

But in order to gain control of your anger, you need to look for the source. Are there specific triggers? Topics, words, actions, situations? Is there no trigger at all? (more on this in a moment.) If you identify the triggers that take you from being calm and collected to enraged enough to lash out (physically or verbally) and can then focus on adding an intermediary step where you examine your feelings and can rationalize somewhat, thinking about how you're going to act next instead of just straight up reacting and losing control, you may find more success in controlling your anger.

If you take a long, hard look at yourself and you cannot find out what is causing your anger, you probably need to consider professional help, especially if you don't feel you have friends/family you can talk to openly about your feelings. Also - is it just anger, or do you have other, powerful mood swings - depressed to elated, elated to enraged? These could be symptoms of chemical imbalances that might be best treated with medication (probably not preferable, but if it's affecting your life so negatively, it would certainly be worth it to at least talk to a counselor or psychiatrist if you continue to fail to be able to get your anger in check).

I would also suggest exercising regularly - jogging, swimming, cycling are all good options and the health benefits will be both physical and mental.

Hope that helps.
Go all out or don't go out at all.

Actually, I find that taking down a Dragon makes me angry. :nervous:

Counting to ten also makes me very angry. :drevil:

Watching some Top Gear clips...ah, the reverse. :D

hmmm anger management, there are several ways i think can help you in the situation you are in. (i had anger management problems as well)

1. If what you are talking about with your parents is not getting anywhere (i.e. the seem to think that you are the problem) say :Ok this is going nowhere. then leave the area and do something else for a while, but do this before anger starts to set in.

2. Take a walk in a park (if there is one nearby), look for things you might have missed along the way. It might surprise you what you might have missed and it engages your mind, taking the focus off your anger. Sitting on a park bench and just looking out works too i find.

3. Go out with friends, no explanation here friends are a good remedy for anything most of the time.

4. Get a map of your area, point at a random spot, and find it. Again it engages your mind and at the same time leads you away from the source of your anger. Plus you might find something interesting on the way.


Thats all i can think of at the moment, ill get back to you if i come up with more.
