How do I deal with my anger:

More and more, once again, I successfully deal with my anger through searching within and identifying for myself, my fears (often the roots as well) and becoming willing and deciding to be honest, discuss my fears and feel the emotions which follow such honest disclosure. Sometimes these feelings are of competency, release and self-confidence, other times I feel embarassment, humiliation, shame and/or guilt.

When I fail to do the above, I unsuccessfully cope with my anger with a myraid of destructive approaches, (including avoidance behavior) and remain to live in the negative outcome(s).

Default Dealing with anger

On the job I was trained to never take things personally, treat everyone with the same courtesy and respect and our behavior was measured by what was good for the company. I consider myself fortunate to have been trained as such. But I spent most of my waking life there and tended to treat my family the same way...so instead of anger everything became a business problem. Does that make sense?

Lately I've been walking or taking a shower when I am angry. I've been having lots of repressed rage resurfacing of late and I find those activities helpful. I'm tired of repressing it or working around it. I'm trying to face it and allow it to be, as it is.
