Q: Does Anyone Else Get Angry?

I can let myself get worked in to a fury, and I feel out of control.

I am hoping that someone else has been through this or has some suggestions for ways for me control this.

My anxiety feels as though it is boiling up, and I feel like I need to explode. My heart beat flys, my head rishes with awful thoughts, and I really need some way to release it.

I am distructive, and have broken things in my house. I am typically a kind, thoughtful person.
I have been with my hunny for nearly 2 years, and yes we've had way-ups, and way-lows....But we have love and I know he wants to support me through this...But I feel guilty.
I have even attacked him,,,and I mean viciously attacked him. Like I said, this is so uncharacteristic of my own self, and I worry about it.

I have violent thoughts toward myself as well,,,,but, I made myself a promise today, that i'm sure I will keep. So, that is not my huge concern.

Where can I output this energy when i'm wanting to swing fists? I am 25 years old, this is so ridiculous, I hate the life i'm pulling along right now....

Please discuss!

Hmm

Well I think the best thing to do with all that anger is to find something you like doing.. And put towards all that aggression and energy towards that , not towards throwing things n or breaking. I mean I get angry tothe point where it all builds up but.. I dont break things..I just spazz out. My fiancee used to be really angry that he woudl break things. I once saw him break his labtop because of an ex gf. Now..Thats bad.. He threw it in a lake.. Otherwise he is really calm now.. He found that going to wash his car, clears his head.. And I found that talking to people online clears my head.

Hey seabear, we are kind of in the same aituation though I am only 15. I also get overtaken by anger sometimes. Its really scary and it seems to get in the way like you said.
Just so you know you are not alone in this... Pm me if you want to.
