Anger and Emotional Regulation

Challenge

Do you constantly yell, find yourself throwing things, storming out of the room or being overly critical of others?

Do you often react out of proportion to the situation or seemingly have a short fuse compared to others?

Do you have difficulty controlling your emotions when overwhelmed?

Is your anger getting you into trouble at work, home or with the law?

Anger and emotions are a normal part of the human reaction system, but become a problem when not managed properly. Everyone gets angry, teary or emotional, and sometimes expressing strong feelings is important to deal with the situation. Where these emotions are expressed in a harmful way, or persist over a long period of time, however, it can lead to problems at home, work and life.
