Anger management issues --> Mild?

Question

Hey, I'm Marissa. Um..I'm 15 y.o., but sometimes it scares me because I get angry reallly fast. No one thinks I do, but idk... Mostly my father brings me close to showing people how pissed I can get. He's such an a*****e. I get so angry sometimes, I hurt myself..for control I guess. Doesn't matter. I don't know how to control this anger, can someone help?

And I know this question is vague, but please know, I think that I'm a pretty decent person, quiet most of the time.. I just realized why I hurt myself (slapping, cutting, pulling my hair so hard clumps sometimes come out when I'm really angry..). I always knew it was for control, though, too..

But little things make me so...well..angry! Just a little comment my father makes, or something my brother does, or anything, really..

Answer 1

maybe you need anger management or think up other ways you can deal with the situation

Answer 2

Hi Marissa,

Wow, that is a lot to go through.

It seems to me that it's not your anger problem, it's more of a communication problem with you and your dad. If you can you need to have a talk with your dad, let him know that you and him need to have a heart to heart talk. Try explaining to him that you feel bad about some of the things he says. Tell him your trying your hardest and want to stop feeling this way.

If that's not possible, I would try talking to someone from school or maybe ask if you can see a therapist. Maybe that can lead to family therapy.

Self harm is not good, and without resolving these issues with your father it maybe next to impossible to get some control over this.

One thing you must know that no matter what your father says to you it is not your fault and he maybe saying these things because of some other underlying issue. In other words something else is going on and he takes it out on you. But all in all it is not your fault.

So reach out to an adult you can trust and feel comfortable with. It will be the first step in bringing back your smile.

Take care and never give up!
