Anger is a natural emotion – but it can become problematic when it overwhelms you and gets out of control.
Extreme anger can lead to destructive behaviour, ruined relationships and even some issues with physical health. Meanwhile, chronic anger can lead to various mental health issues, such as anxiety and depression, as well as physical health problems like high blood pressure and heart disease. That’s why understanding how to manage anger is crucial for maintaining positive relationships, as well as mental and physical health.
Anger management is a combination of therapy and techniques that teaches you coping strategies, how to handle situations that trigger anger and lifestyle changes to reduce your overall stress levels. This is achieved through relaxation techniques, cognitive restructuring and working on improving problem-solving and communication skills. Eventually, it will help you recognise the source of your anger, control your emotional responses and express your feelings in a calm and constructive manner.
Uncontrolled anger can have severe consequences on both mental and physical health, such as anxiety, depression, high blood pressure and increased risk of heart disease.
Long-term anger can affect personal and professional relationships too, leading to social isolation and even worse problems with mental health.
However, anger can manifest itself in various ways, so it’s important to understand the signs and causes in order to manage it effectively.
“From start to finish, it taught me so much about myself.”
“Thank you for challenging me when I needed it.”
“I can’t believe how much progress I’ve made in a short time.”
“After many years of therapy, you are the first person who gets me.”
Effective anger management requires a combination of self-awareness, coping strategies and therapeutic interventions.
