Is there an effective way to repress anger?

I’ve been struggling with anger issues and I’m wondering if there is an effective way to repress it. I cannot deal with it since the problems are beyond my control, and addressing them directly only stirs up more hostility. I can’t rid myself of the anger over things as well so basically I’m stuck.

Is there anyway I can keep this so deep that I can appear to be a normal human being for awhile? There is more than one issue and they are all very complex. I’ve tried doing everything — even embracing the issue directly but nothing works.

(An example would be – If I were to be beaten, I would somehow rationalize that I deserve that in order to prevent a hostile reaction) It’s probably unhealthy, but I don’t know what else to do. Even teaching me how to brainwash myself will help. Anything, please…

I wouldn’t repress it as it only serves to cause health and mental issues. How about using this board or talking to someone that you feel comfortable in discussing your issues with? You will find that we are all just human and there are many things not in our control and when all else fails you just have to lay it down and let it go.

Some issues can’t be solved, some wrongs can’t be fixed but you can put it out there, get it off your chest, and if it truly can’t be fixed with help then . . . let it go without hurting yourself or anyone or anything. There is no shame in that.

Good luck

Repressed Anger Into Personal Power

    Kill then rape a goat. Maybe that’s all you really need?

    A lot of people end up killing from this sort of behavior. I’d suggest committing yourself to one of them cool white padded rooms. You have the whoooollle room in the world to "beat up."

    Or you could get a punching bag. Ohh no wait, get one of those blow up clown punching balloons. The kind that when you punch, it pops back up after the impact. That’s gotta last until you bring the knife and rope out.

    Good luck!

    Have you tried listening to music? Just find a song that really gets u relaxes…. give it a try. Maybe try the band The Doors but that is if u r into classic rock. If that does not work well try a punching bag believe me it works. Also try leaving before u know your going to blow. There is a reason u have anger issues and no u r not going to become a psycho killer. You recognize u have anger issues. Remember what happens happens don’t blow things in big issues.

    I don’t know if you can repress anger and if you do repress it is it not still there. It remind me of that Seinfeld episode where George dad is trying to repress his anger by yelling, " Serenity Now!! Serenity Now!!!! ". In the long run it doesn’t help but actually makes the matter worse.

    Try karate or boxing. They release physical stress and mental stress. You can also learn a lot of positive things, learn how to control your anger, defend yourself, get in shape, and it’s something good to be apart of. I have a purple belt in karate and my grades have gone up a lot since then and I’m less mean to my little brother because I’ve gained a lot of patience and confidence from it.

    Never repress anger it only makes it worse get a punching bag and work out on it daily. It will take time but its far better then the regret of hurting someone u love and possibly ending up in jail over it. No one deserves to be beaten change your attitude.
