Anyone else find they get really mad? Like, when I start to feel too much anxiety (omg, I can't do this) or depression (why bother?) I turn to anger as a way of being mad at someone else? Especially when someone else is being a douche bag????
My two year old and I are getting kicked out for the second time in a month. First time by my mother who didn't think it was okay for me to seek treatment for anxiety/depression/eating disorder and now by landlord who decided he doesn't *want* rent because he doesn't like kids. This the last business day before MOTHER'S DAY. I hope his HIV flares up and kills him. Posted on 05/09/08, 05:05 pm |

I don't have problems like yours but if I'm anxious and fester over something for two long then yes, I can get angry at times.

These days I can get VERY angry, too. But one of the reasons people have anxiety in the first place is because of repressed rage--they either turn it inward on themselves (like a nuclear weapon contained in your body) or they don't know how to express it in a healthy way. How do you react when these people treat you this way? Do you feel you are standing up for yourself? Are you communicating your frustration and anger to them constructively? I'm sorry the some people in your life are being less than supportive. It sucks, I've been there.

Yes i can get like this to and my anger on the wrong people ( the ones i love the most ), mainly my anger stays internal which makes my anxiety worse.
I play a game called swing ball, similar to tether ball only a bit more like tennis. I,d love to go in a room full of china and smash it on a daily basis before my internal anger starts to build and fester, meantime swingball is my healthyest option. PS: Dont let mum discorough you from seeking help, it is what you need the most. Take Care! Hugs!

Um, so I'm a bit calmer now and realized what I typed. I did not mean to offend anyone with a serious illness - I'm just angry and hurt and tired of being homeless and thrown out on my ass with a kid. Sorry if anyone was hurt by my thoughtless comment - again, look at post title to see my state of mind while typing

Actually, I don't know how to be angry appropriately. I grew up in a home where if I voiced complaints, I risked being kicked out at any time (my brother was thrown out at age 12 for trying to file a child investigation case because we were being abused). That's interesting that annabee says anxiety is caused by rage, because I don't usually express any negative emotions, so it being repressed fits. Bah. I want MEDICINE!!!! I hope my medicaid gets approved asap. :(

Your fine love
i understand completely. Being deppressed and having anxiety on its own does tend to have some of us lash out in a rage, you are not alone, your point is valid and i dont think youv,e offended anyone. I Hope Your Situation improves for you soon i really do! In my Thoughts!

their are times when I also get really angry when my anxiety is way up and just can't deal with my emotions and start to break down.

I have gotten angry in the past over frustration of my anxiety, etc.....I learned though that getting angry does not serve anyone, especially me. If you can take that energy and use it to work on whatever it is at hand then you feel so much better and the anger will turn into a better energy....I hope that makes sense.....good luck to you....change can be good and bring new opportunity!
