Why Am I Getting Angry?

hi this isnt really a health question but in a way it is affecting my health. i have always had a problem with my anger and as a result it is pushing away the people that i love (my partner and my son) im looking into anger managment classes as we speak to try and fix this but there is one thing that ive noticed about myself that i havent ever told anyone and i would really like an answer to. in stressful situations involving myself and my family instead of getting upset about things that any normal person would be upset about i get angry but then if im watching a movie or something like that in those same situations i can some how get upset, if that makes any sense? why is it that i cant get upset like i should be in real life situations and resort to anger but then in fictional situations my mind and body allows me to become upset??

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. I can understand your problem. But this is not a problem at all.

What shall be your reaction when there is a sudden traffic jam? When you had to stand in front of your boss when he is upset? When your boss scolds at you? When you accidentally get punched on a crowded bus? These are situations in everyday life. Do you get angry? shout? yell? NOT!!!!

Why? Because we knew, getting angry at these and other life situations is of no use. We loose our health. That is all.

Compare these situations with your family situations. You shall find the answer. You don't need any anger management classes, but pure understanding, love and affection.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
