Sometime when small thing happen, like losing a comb, I get furious. I even start throwing things. Do I have a problem?
Why do I get angry so easily?
Its important to think to yourself about what it is about losing the comb that gets you so angry. What are the thoughts that go through your mind when things that are out of your control (like losing the comb) happen? Its okay to be upset, but some self-awareness about whats going on to cause those feelings is important, and only you can know what thoughts are going through your mind when you find yourself becoming angry. Is it that you feel badly about yourself when these small things happen? If thats the case then you need to work on your self-esteem. Is it that you are frightened when you dont know where something is and that causes the anger? Try to identify the thought behind the feeling.As for the throwing things when you become angry- please know, its okay to feel angry. Feeling the emotion of anger isnt necessarily a problem. Any emotion is okay to have. Its how we express our emotions that sometimes becomes the problem. Throwing things can be a dysfunctional way of handling anger (like if the things you throw break, or if someone sees you throwing things and becomes scared) and it would be a good idea to work with a therapist or anger management coach to brainstorm some healthier ways to express your feelings.
