anger help: Why do I get upset/mad about every little thing? - Help.com

are u bieng outwardly angry and getting off your chest??

Are you a woman by any chance?

I am :)

When you get in a mood, try not to think about it. try instead to think about the next person you speak to - do you really want to hurt them? if not keep your mouth shut!

maybe because you are really pissed off about a big thing and that is creating a huge underlying frustration

like for me i’ve noticed i’m quite sure that i wont be happy unless i get to have kids and as i’m 39 and my husband left i have a huge frustration and i feel like i’ve got to move forward fast so whenever anything goes wrong i freak out, even liking missing a bus this morning…

Oh well then that’s okay. ;)
I used to be like you, a few years ago (hormonal teenager phase)
I have a tendancy to be very emtoional/angry especially when I feel strongly about something. I mean I don’t shout and scream but I do get in a huff.
Best way to get over it is to laugh at yourself and try to find the humour in it. When you get angry or upset at someone or something, blow your steam off, let the anger out, and then laugh about it. Eventually the little things you used to get so worked up over seem just silly. :)

Are you a control-freak i.e. anal rententive? These kind of people get bent outta shape if the slightest thing doesn’t go there way, or if things don’t come out the way you apprehended.

I used to be this way, but I’ve gotten a lot better about it. People will automatically sense your negativity if you act this way, they’ll avoid you and won’t deal with you in the future.

i tend to cry when i’m angry, and i also get worked up about a lot of ****…more than i need to i’m sure! i can laugh about it after the fact, but in the moment it makes me feel really bad and incompetent. even w/ the bf; i only get to see him once a week and even then i’m always mad about something!! it’s so frustrating not being able to enjoy that time but he always seems to be doing something wrong.
