Anger, and dealing with it

May 27, 2014

My anger issues really worry me sometimes. While my anger is not violent - I don’t hit things (or people), or do something otherwise destructive - it wants to rise up in me so quick, and sometimes it is a real struggle to keep it down.

Recently, I posted a link to Facebook about the Elliot Rodger case - namely, that his crime and choice of victims was partially motivated by racism - to start a conversation and see what my more intelligent friends thought. And that’s what I got, so what worries me is why I got angry at their responses. Maybe because it’s a personal issue to me, and that I felt they were being dismissive of my point of view. (Which is unreasonable, because I had not specifically articulated my point of view yet.) Maybe because I’m so used to most of my friends not being able to relate or not caring about the issues I do, and that my frustration boils over sometimes because of this. It’s going to be a long road. Maybe I’ll never fully get over my anger issues. But I really, really want to try to.

I have similar anger issues, so I feel you. You're already doing okay though if you're not violent about it. Sometimes, I throw things...really hard. But I have never hit anyone so I count that as a win. It's frustrating when people don't relate or don't care about an issue that's important to you. I get that all the time and it feels like you're talking to someone who won't take their headphones off.

@iggy Thanks for relating. It does feel like I'm talking to a brick wall sometimes, and I want to say, "Are you *really* this dense?" But if someone doesn't want to listen, I suppose the best thing you can do is wait for people who are receptive to listening.
