Anger Management

I’ve always known that I have a short fuse and a lot of things can trigger it but some recent incidents made me realize the extent of the problem and that it needs to be addressed immediately.

So, for now,I have decided that the best way to keep my anger in control is by avoiding to do things that are likely to trigger my anger.This means that I will leave home early because I know that the traffic sucks and there’s nothing I can do about it. I’ve also decided to avoid taking the shortcut that passes through a railway crossing which is closed for at least 15-20 minutes at a stretch and does not open until at least 2-3 trains have gone through. I’m better off taking the regular road.

And no more will I ever go to a particular supermarket which is run by a family of morons and where a checkout can take anywhere between 15-30 minutes even if you buy just one item.Avoiding the triggers has worked so far. I hope will work in the future too because I definitely don’t wanna get high blood pressure and lose my hair at such a young age.

    way to go … at least you have identified the causes for the problem.

    I would recommend “Anger Management” the movie of course :P

    Akanksha: I don’t think these things can bother you as much as my triggers bother me. I really go crazy! A bad joke cannot turn you crazy ;)
    Abhinav: Yes, I am trying my best to control my anger. And I hate Adam Sandler. I can’t watch any movie of his :)

    traffic on one side are like a boon to doctors.. wat say
    everyday heavy traffic implies increased bp in ppl, which again leads to consulting doctor.. huh…

    I don’t even have to leave my house and get angered. I’ve pretty much destroyed parts of my desk because that takes the brunt of it. I think we all need to find outlets but that is hard with all the stress.

    Akanksha: Hey, buy him a book of jokes. That might help ;)
    Becky: Heh! I’m sure you’ll get them under control.

    Christina: You’re welcome! And thanks for dropping by!

    Preeti: Ah, I don’t know about seeing a doctor but if gun laws weren’t strict, I would definitely get one ;)
    Bluerays: Yeah, we all have something or someone we use to vent our anger!

    LOL! I easily get angered by vulgarity,hypocrisy and ignorance. And yeah, bad hokes make me a hypochondriac at times. But they don’t piss me off to such an extent that i get moody! self-talk always helps me best!
