Focus Your Anger Toward Doing Something Positive
Anger is a totally normal, and usually healthy, human emotion. But when it gets out of control and turns destructive, it can lead to trouble -- problems at work, in one's personal relationships, and in the overall quality of one's life. And it can make one feel as though he or she is at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion. This page is meant to help everyone understand and control anger.
Once you accept the fact that you have a right to be angry you can begin to dissipate the negative energy. First of all, make sure that you're angry at the right events in your life. If you cannot describe what you're angry about, or why you're angry, a little bit of self diagnoses is going to be needed. In other words, before you can get rid of anger you have to know what you're mad at and why.

How do you know when an unhelpful state of anger is starting? Well, it's different for everyone, but let's just follow a question and answer scenario, then work it in a way that best fits you. Here is an example of how a question and answer session could go.
QUESTION: When do you realize you are about to become angry?
ANSWER: My little finger starts to twitch and sometimes my eyes feel strained.
QUESTION: What happens next? Do you see pictures in your mind or do you get a feeling somewhere in your body or do you start thinking something?
ANSWER: I get a feeling in my body, I guess, because I start breathing faster.
First allow yourself to feel the emotion fully. Allow yourself to be really mad. Say you're really mad. If you need to do something physical then do something safe and non-destructive. When you allow yourself to feel the intensity of an emotion it usually peaks then wanes over a few minutes. Then you can decide how you want to get rid of anger.
To start your anger work through artistic expression, let your creativity go. Who knows, perhaps you will create some items worth selling someday. A couple of professional artists with whom I have worked with over the years have changed their style of artistic expression after getting into Anger Work. They often feel even more connected to their pieces because of the intense level of self expression.
Anger producing situations can be viewed in a different light if you work on your thoughts. Many times, anger is the result of the idea that you alone are in control of this universe. You are offended when someone disagrees with an idea, action, or point of view. After all, you are god. How can anyone disagree? You might also feel threaten and you act as if you are being attacked when in reality the attack is related to your view of the situations.
Finding, placing and dramatizing blame is one of the greatest sources of creating and feeding anger according to a top anger management self help book. Blame talks like this, "It's someone else's fault. He should not have done it, and I must make him pay for it." One of the many downsides of this is that the blame game takes so much time and energy, leaving you with little for the rest of your life.
When you are angry, the tendency is for you to lose control of yourself. Once it happens, you might not be aware of every word or every action that come out from you. Exercise on how to communicate well. Always keep yourself in control of your situation. Good communication will lead understanding what is really happening.
