Anger

[PeterC]

Just talk about anger.

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

GAAAHHHHH!!!
This guy at my church.....
I just,
I just wanna MESS UP HIS FACE!!!!! :mad:

[SpiritedWolf]

I am REALLY mad at my boyfriend!! I was waiting for him outside of class today (I always do). He runs past me without even saying hi!!!! Now I am really mad at him :mad:

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

I have a bunch!!!


This girl named Courtney, who USED to be my friend,
I just wanna MESS UP HER FACE TOO!!!! :mad:

PEOPLE MAKE ME SO FREAKIN MAD!!!! :mad:

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

I am REALLY mad at my boyfriend!! I was waiting for him outside of class today (I always do). He runs past me without even saying hi!!!! Now I am really mad at him :mad:

Did you mess up his face??? lol J/K

[SpiritedWolf]

Who thinks I should yell at my bf tomorrow??? *punches pillow* *looks at pillow* Whoops didn't mean to make a hole! *giggles* I'm still mad though! :mad:

[Aslan'sFriend410]

It's fine to be angry... it's a normal human emotion. What matters most though is how you choose to respond to it. You can either channel it and make it into something positive or let it get the best of you. When I get angry I try to put all that pent up energy into my creative pursuits. I find that whether it's my art or my drumming, I tend to come up with the best stuff either during or shortly after being angry. I also pray, asking the Lord to give me strength so that I won't give in to my anger and say something that I would regret later.

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

Ask him why the crap he didn't notice you!

Hmmmmm.....
I usually respond to it by trying to find something to injure
(stuffed animal, the wall, a pencil)
Or If I can't find anything I just let the anger out in my head. That way no one will ever know I'm mad... :D

[SpiritedWolf]

It's the same with me, when I get emotional about something I seem to write poetry ALOT better. But I would still rather punch whoever, or whatever I'm mad at! Even though I never would, probably just yell at them :D

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

A couple times I've punched former friend, Courtney. By accident of course. *evil laugh*

I've slapped people. Not really cause I was mad at them just for fun.I slap them hard on their leg. They usually end up pushing me into something.(wall, bed, blow up palm tree) :D

[Jadee]

I'm mad at this stupid girl. I was friends with her bf, JUST FRIENDS, and she gets all mad and spreads a rumor I like him (still being my "friend" at the same time though). Then he stops to hang out with me and is afraid of me!!! I WAS HIS FRIEND SINCE KINDERGARDEN!! Then I tell her I don't like her and she gets all upset and tells a teacher :rolleyes: but the teacher wouldn't lemme talk so I got in trouble!! She also spread a rumor I kissed this boy

Then she bought all my friends off by giving them all sorts of stuff, front seats to shows, bags etc. and bes all nice to them while she treats me like crap!! Insulting me, but still giving me all that expensive stuff still making me be her "friend" or she will tell her parents who are like really mean sometimes...calling me up and lecturing me for about and hour -_-

Then, she puts me on the phone with her other friend. They want me to talk about inappropriate and weird things, and I'm infront of my grandparents so I say no (well I don't want to anyways lol). They call me stupid and hang up :mad:

She was all the teacher's pet thing, so I had to be nice to her or the teachers would be on me, which sucked, and I see her in the yearbook all smiling and trying to be nice n cute

GRAAHHH lol jk jk but I am mad at her for all that still lol

Anger: it's ok to be angry. Just not too angry or you will go probably crazy and kill someone sometimes lol...when I'm agry I just go on YouTube lol. But sometimes overly-angry can get you in like trouble that can ruin your life, like it did with my brother lol

[LifeMaiden]

GAAAHHHHH!!!
This guy at my church.....
I just,
I just wanna MESS UP HIS FACE!!!!! :mad:


Whoa calm down! LOL


I was really angry at my ex husband the night that I beat him up. I don't want to get that angry again and lose control because no one's worth going to jail over. The last time I was really angry recently was because I saw this kid at my gym spit and blow his nose garbage into the drinking fountain, and I cursed him out for it. That is nasty stuff, what he did.

[Sir Benjamin the Lion]

I get really mad at people who cheat. It takes the fun out of a game. I want to kill them. In Air soft, I just wait for them again, and light them up. Laughs manically.

Our Air soft commander makes me really mad. He thinks we don't know how to fight. I take my air soft gun and hide and wait for them. He thinks the people on his team are soldiers and uses them as soldiers. That would work if we were soldiers.

I wantt o shoot him more than anybody on the entire field. (Shoots Commander in back. Sorry about that didn't see you there.) Hehe! :D

[EveningStar]

Anger makes me furious. And the angrier I get, the more furious it makes me. Happiness makes me a lot less furious than anger. :rolleyes:

[Sir Benjamin the Lion]

I would agree completely with you. Furious for me is not good. It's unhealthy.

[Ephinie]

You know what makes me angry?! When I buy beautiful, fresh bananas at Wal-Mart; and then they are practically rotten two days later!!!!:mad: I wish I knew how to keep my bananas fresh for more than two days.

[oxford girl]

I am so angry, my youth groop is having a barn party tonight and I can't go because I'm sick :mad:

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

I am so angry, my youth groop is having a barn party tonight and I can't go because I'm sick :mad:

Well, at least there isn't a psychotic ***** who used to be your friend and then stole all your friends in your youth group... :mad:

[oxford girl]

Well, at least there isn't a psychotic ***** who used to be your friend and then stole all your friends in your youth group... :mad:

Did that happen to you :confused:

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

Did that happen to you :confused:

Yup!

I invited her to my youth group and after the second time she went she started coming BY HERSELF without me even inviting her :mad: Then she just kind of took over! now everyone LOVES her cause they think she's SO COOL!!! :mad: She curses alot when she's AT church! I didn't really mind it when she would do it at my house but now it's just gotten REALLY annoying!
And most of the girls at my church want to be like her so now they are starting to curse! :eek:
She also started going out with this guy I liked!!!! THAT REALLY TICKED ME OFF!!!!
That would be the guy at my church who I said I wanted to mess up his face.
I think he USED to like me before Courtney came along!!!

[oxford girl]

That's so sad, one of my former friends did kind of the same thing to me, she knew I liked this guy, so she asked him to go out with her :mad:

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

That's so sad, one of my former friends did kind of the same thing to me, she knew I liked this guy, so she asked him to go out with her :mad:

The world is filled will all kinds of idiots!


Money talks in this world
That's what idiots will say
But you'll find out
That this world
Is just an idiots parade
something, something
uh........(don't know the whole song)
lol :rolleyes:

[office]

Who thinks I should yell at my bf tomorrow??? *punches pillow* *looks at pillow* Whoops didn't mean to make a hole! *giggles* I'm still mad though! :mad:
No,I don`t think you should because there may be good reasons why he didn`t notice you.

[Natasia_Vae]

You know what makes me angry?! When I buy beautiful, fresh bananas at Wal-Mart; and then they are practically rotten two days later!!!!:mad: I wish I knew how to keep my bananas fresh for more than two days.
If you put them in the refrigerator they'll get old even faster.

I don't get angry very often. Unless it's at my sister.

[SpiritedWolf]

I'm mad at my little brother, because... well my friends are really aginst people cutting... he scraped me and it looks likes I cut myself... so now my friends are gonna get mad at me!!! So I'm mad at him! :mad:

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

ANGERNESSSSSS!!! :eek:

[Son of Adam]

Well now that everyone it seems has vented their anger on this thread, how do you all feel? We all get angry. We are all human.

Scripture tells us to be angry and sin not. How do we do that? What is righteous anger?

And who does this pent-up anger hurt? These are questions we must answer so we may deal with the anger when it rises up within each of us. Do we deal with the anger or do we just either vent it upon someone or hold it in until we let it build up, like a volcano until we finally erupt?

And finally, how are we, for those who are Christians, supposed to deal with our anger? Do we try to prevent the anger from getting hold of us before we blow up or do we let it all out and then repent?

What do you all think?

[LifeMaiden]

Well I've burned a LOT of bridges in my life, and I regret each bridge I burned due to my emotional outbursts. I'm not talking about dangerous or psychotic things, but let's face it...words can hurt as much as doing physical damage. I've been blessed with some people in my life now who have the PATIENCE OF SAINTS to put up with some of my bull. But I'd probably have spared a lot of people emotional pain if I could learn to temper my temper. If you know what I mean.

A good example is to look at what happened here, when I don't agree with someone and get annoyed, and without thinking, go off on a rant. In the end it just makes that person doing the ranting look foolish or embarassed.

[Son of Adam]

My point exactly, LM.

[Darth Sparhawk]

I'm probably gonna be bashed here, because I'm gonna quote a thought, supposedly written by Emperor Palpatine is a fictious "Book of Anger". He says that anger is a very potent emotion which can give you great power, but it must be controled before it consumes you.
I read a post here which illustates hos words. If one is angry he better focus on something positive, like creating something. If the anger gets the better of you, the reslut is embarassing. I have noted that when I'm angry and I focus onn postive thing I soketimes got fresh ideas and, getting calmer in the end I make something good. But if the anger controls me, I'm usually very dumb and got humiliated by my own stupidity or I do horrid things, which I later regret.
So it is natural to feel angry, anger is type of energy which should be focused on someting positive.

[Tsukiko]

GRR!! Im soooooooo mad, and ya'll are gonna say this is a dumb reason;

THEY MIGHT PUBLISH new, yes, let me repeat NEW! Narnia books............:mad: :mad: and it makes me sad..:( :(

[LifeMaiden]

I agree that anger can be used positively...like if someone says to you, " You could never do that.." you'd be spurned on to accomplish something, and it's certainly better than sitting around depressed. Anger can be channeled positively. An example in my life...as a kid, I was really small and really hyper. I just remember one of the teachers in my school saying to my parents that I was troublesome and should take Ritalin.

In response to the hyperactivity, my parents were angry that she said that without considering other options, and they put me in gymnastics. I WAS angry that I had been told I was troublesome, and I remember putting every ounce of anger and outrage into my sport. I quickly rose to the ranks of being one of the top gymnasts there at the school ...hyperactivity and anger actually fueled me to accomplish that


Even today, if I get angry at myself that I can't run an extra mile or lift that extra weight as a trainer, I'll train myself to do it until I CAN do it.

[makeascenerachel]

GAAAHHHHH!!!
This guy at my church.....
I just,
I just wanna MESS UP HIS FACE!!!!! :mad:
who Aaron?????

[Sir Godfrey]

Anger is a double sided coin. It can be used to destroy or used to improve. I know first hand it's power, infact when I get angry it makes the hulk and Darth Vader look like teddie bears. I use to use my anger to destroy, but now I'm trying to purge it from myself. Only using it in productive ways. Note: My strength is so great when I' mangry i am able to break a gate wth simple push. I know not myo wn strength and I pray that it be sued for good, not for ill purposes.

[Shadow Hawk]

I would like to see that!!! flim it.

[Sir Godfrey]

Trust me you don't and I'm trying to purge it, not feed it.

[Shadow Hawk]

I'm joking if your as strong as the power team I rather not...

[ArrowsOfSilver]

Anger is a healthy emotion.
It lets out your negative energy.

[Sir Godfrey]

Indeed, but only if you use it psotitivly, not destructive.

[ArrowsOfSilver]

Destruction is the basis of civilization.

[Sir Godfrey]

And death of.....

[ArrowsOfSilver]

Everything that tries to tame the beast.

[Sir Godfrey]

"Sometimes when you try to cage the beast, the beast gets angry" -Wolverine (X-Men: The Last Stand).

[ArrowsOfSilver]

Beasts that are not born tamed should not be tamed.

[Sir Godfrey]

I pray that God help me control my anger.

[ArrowsOfSilver]

Certainly.


If I get harmful with my anger, my karma will come back to bite me.

[Jadee]

*sings nicely for once :eek: * Anger anger anger I was angry this morning!! *SINGS WITH BOY-GOING-THROUGH-PUBERTY-VOICE* LALALALA

I'M STILL ANGRY

BUT LESS ANGRY THAN EARLIER

LALALALALALALA *kills everyone with voice*

[Sir Godfrey]

Just try to control it, don't lute it control you.

[ArrowsOfSilver]

I'm at that annoying state in life where I believe that there is nothing I can't control.

[Jadee]

Just try to control it, don't lute it control you.

Trust me, it's best to control it.

[*Princess Rose*]

There are these gurls in my ballet class, and they drive me CRAZY!!!!!!!!!! They don't pay attention at all!!!!!!!!!

[oxford girl]

Pray about your anger, it helps alot

[Sir Godfrey]

Pray about your anger, it helps alot

Indeed, God's help is alwasy need to overocme such poweful emtions. However you in the end must say no.

[Jadee]

Trust me, it's best to control it.
But

it's hard

to control it

I'm like my dad!! :D

He yells

a lot

and gets mad

a lot :D like me

offline! :D

[ArrowsOfSilver]

A tempest is not well met in this world.




The best way to get people to do what you want is to make them believe it is to their advantage to put you in power.

[Samwise Gamgee]

Oh Bogarts And Broom Sticks! I hate my mum right now. I did everything but one thing and that was turn on my brother's music. and now it is such a fedrel crime!

[ArrowsOfSilver]

None of you swear, I'm guessing.

[Samwise Gamgee]

No I don't, so i sond like Trumpkin when I am mad :p

[Sir Godfrey]

I love your siggy Aslan13

[Bramblefox]

When I'm mad I don't fume about whatever made me ticked off. I go out and shovel some manure (a never-ending job with 2 horses, let me tell you :D), stomp around the pasture, etc. Or sometimes I just write in my journal, and afterwards I feel better. And then if I'm REALLY mad I just break down and cry. But never in front of anyone; outside or in my room :P.

[hello mcfly]

I also write in my journal when Im mad...or just lock myself in my room and stay there for awhile, then when I feel like getting out, I get out! Lol

[LifeMaiden]

When I get really mad I usually just come out and say whatever's on my mind, which I'm trying to change. And if I'm really mad and don't have access to vent it out then I go running for miles really hard.

[pink-cheetah]

I also write in my journal when Im mad...or just lock myself in my room and stay there for awhile, then when I feel like getting out, I get out! Lol
me too. and then when i read what i've written it sounds so stupid, but it feels good to get it all out when i am angry.

yeah, sometimes i cry when i am extremely mad.. it just blows out, i guess.. :p

When I get really mad I usually just come out and say whatever's on my mind, which I'm trying to change. And if I'm really mad and don't have access to vent it out then I go running for miles really hard.
my dad tends to do that (blunt-ness). sometimes it's out in public and incredibly embarassing... one time he blew up at my coach in front of almost everyone who was there that night..

[LifeMaiden]

Neither of my parents have terrible tempers so I'm not sure where I got mine from. :D

[Sir Godfrey]

When i get really angry, I am unstoppable my strength becomes ten times greater. However i don't want to ever go into the mode without a good reason. Good reason: Someone tries to hurt my future wife, then it's on.

[LifeMaiden]

If ANYONE insults or harms my

1. Family members
2. My pets or anyone else's pets
3. Little kids or elderly people


Then I'm going to get really mad, and righteously so.

[Sir Godfrey]

Rightious ignination (I may have spelled it wrong).

[LifeMaiden]

Allow me. It's RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION. :D

[Sir Godfrey]

There you go, sorry I haven't used that word much.

[Sir Benjamin the Lion]

That's what I would defend. But I have a horrible Terrible Temper.

[Sir Godfrey]

We all have tempers, however controlling them is another matter.

[pink-cheetah]

We all have tempers, however controlling them is another matter.
well, we all have a "Mr. Hyde" in us...

[Sir Godfrey]

Yup it's normal human nature, however it's power must be controlled.

[pink-cheetah]

if you could call it a power.........

[Sir Godfrey]

Well control the anger is more what I ment.

[pink-cheetah]

Well control the anger is more what I ment.
well, that's hard too.. sometimes it takes me days to calm down from something that has really upset me. :rolleyes:

[Sir Benjamin the Lion]

When I lose it. I lose it. Some people are hard to stay controled with.

[Sir Godfrey]

Well then it's best to find a way to vent.

[LifeMaiden]

Not always to vent...I beat up badly my ex husband when I got sick of him cheating on me.

[*Princess Rose*]

AAAAAAAAAAACK I'm mad at my friend lydia for hogging me at art class when I see her at least 2wce a week!!!!
(am homeschooled)

[LifeMaiden]

Not always to vent...I beat up badly my ex husband when I got sick of him cheating on me.

[Shadow Hawk]

anger is something we all experience and can not avoid. We all have trouble with it and try to control it.

[Sir Godfrey]

I'm made at my 11 year friend because he became selfish jerk who only cares about himself and he always makes me feel terrible about myself :mad: .

[LifeMaiden]

If he makes you feel terrible about yourself on a continual basis Sir G, he is NOT your friend, I'm sorry. A friend MIGHT make you feel bad when they get angry and say something they regret, but if he's doing this all the time and it truly is hurtful, you need to get rid of him. Sorry.

[Sir Godfrey]

You are like the twelveth person to say that, including pastors, a couslor, family and other friends. I really need to get him out of my life. Please pray for the easiest way to be revealed.

[LifeMaiden]

I know this sounds corny, but think about the story the Last Battle. Do you remember how Shift was always degrading Puzzle, always making him feel bad, and even worse, obligated to be his friend because Shift was 'superior' ? Puzzle became CONDITIONED to that kind of bad treatment. I can only tell you this Sir G...a true friend does not make you feel bad about yourself. And being 11 is no excuse. He has the choice to be kind to you and make you feel appreciated, and the other choice he's made is clearly to make you feel bad about yourself.

[KathrynJanewayChakotay]

Sg You need to make friends with people that lift you up not knock you down and out. a true friend is someone who loves at all times and takes care of you and helps you feel better about yourself I will pray that its revealed to you in time the right way to go about it

God will reveal to you what is right and wrong and I have ended so many freindships on this very thing But God will always send you someone else even though this has been a good friend for 11 years it might be hard but in the long run you will be better off.

[Ephinie]

I don't have much of a temper. Even on the very rare occasions where I have gotten extremely angry, I can't remember ever saying something that I regretted later or losing control. And the only people who have ever been able to really make me angry are my family and Karchanians.

And then, on the off chance that I do get mad... I fizzle down pretty rapidly. I can't really hold a grudge at all. I just don't have it in me. It takes too much energy.

[Copperfox]

In the Shift-Puzzle illustration, let me add that Jewel the Unicorn, who REALLY WAS immeasurably superior to the Donkey, didn't rub the Donkey's nose in it. Then came Aslan, still more superior, who had just the right mix in speaking privately to Puzzle as He once did with Edmund: ending with Puzzle consoled and happy, though not before the needed correction was given.

If a friend actually is better than you are in some way, he or she should be trying to help you catch up to where he or she is, and glad for you if you do catch up or even go farther still.

[LifeMaiden]

Be lucky that you have a natural zen personality. My friend Ali is a lot like that and we balance each other's personalities out. Sometimes she's not as assertive as she'd like to be and I'm right there helping her out LOL. You seem like a remarkably calm person just from your posts here on the board, Ephinie. I have enough energy for two or three people...I've even run into weight machines and hit my head on things because I move so fast. And I do a lot of things fast, like saying things and reading quickly, without really letting it digest thoroughly, before I actually THINK.

[Sir Godfrey]

Anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering. Anyways I agree I'm gonig to get that friend out of my life. Does anyone have any wise advice?

[LifeMaiden]

It depends on your personality. Can you be upfront enough to say, " Look, you're not truly my friend if you just keep making me feel badly about myself. I've thought about things and I want to reconsider our friendship." Ask him how he feels about it before cutting it loose.

[pink-cheetah]

Anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering. Anyways I agree I'm gonig to get that friend out of my life. Does anyone have any wise advice?
pray for yourself and for them.

that's all i got right now..

[Sain]

At this particular point in time, I feel no anger whatsoever. :)

[Copperfox]

Anger does not always lead to hate, no matter what George Lucas thinks. There is such a thing as _justified_ anger, which leads to justified action, and also often results in a wrongdoer being corrected. Nor does hate always lead to suffering; sometimes that order is reversed, with someone only starting to feel hate after a long time of undeserved suffering. Not that it isn't better if the person can resist the hateful feelings.

[Jadee]

I dislike manipulation (and the people who manipulate) :mad:

[Gryphon]

Sir Godfrey,

No one can make you feel bad about yourself unless you let them. So the problem isn't your friend making you feel bad about yourself, the problem is you letting your "friend" influence the way you see yourself.

So stop asking or listening to what your friend is telling you and ask God. He's a convicting person so beware of that, but be teachable and trainable to His plan and purpose (which is something that you're a part of)

As for the issue of anger and dealing with it personally... I've recently had to deal with getting jealous and even angry with a friend of mine who did various things unknowingly that rubbed me the wrong way.

Eventually I found that just talking to her about the issues that bothered me that there was this weight of some sort lifted off from my shoulders. Me and my friend still don't hang out as much anymore, but we're healing. And I don't know how much I'm going to be able to trust her, but at least I don't squirm at the sight of her anymore :rolleyes:

[Sir Godfrey]

I'm greatful for your advice, but over 14 people have told me it's him not me, he effects them too. So I'm getting him out of my life, until he changes or not. I'll pray for him and hope that he will wake up and see what he's doing.

[Jadee]

I'm kinda mad at my dad. My sister has been having these weird nose bleeds (not normal ones) and we were right next to a hospital..and my sister had been bleeding for like 1 hour...and instead he took us to Toys R Us..I'd rather go to the hospital to see what was wrong. This was yesterday. And we don't even know where Toys R Us is

[Jack of Blades]

Sometimes I get angry for stupid reasons. Reasons that shouldn't make you mad.
Say if someone I know changed faster than me, and got lots of friends. I'd be mad at them :| And later I know I shouldn't be mad at them.

[*~Luthien~*]

What angers me most is our ability to forget the meaning of respect. People...they treat others in the most absurd ways. Some torment...others predjucise. I cannot take this act of disrespect. This world has become more of a battleground just between the way people treat one anouther. Hatrid fills our words and violence in childrens entertainment. Respect is something we all must remember...yet we fail to. Fail so much my home in Colorado has had 10 school shootings in the last year. Tormenting others leads to revenge...and that is something no one should ever have to do.

[ILIKEPILLOWS]

Yeah...that happened to me a couple days ago.
I got mad at one of my friends for like...30 minutes. Then I got over it.:rolleyes:
I get mad really easy at my ps2 games. If I am really far on one and I like screw up or die...Here I am flippin' out on my game out...and my cats are just lookin' at me like I'm a freak. O_o It's madening. Expecially with my Tony Hawk game. Grrness-ness-ness.

[Sir Benjamin the Lion]

Well, I get angry with friends too. I don't stay mad at them.

[Protagonist]

One thing that anger's me is how disrespectful some teen's can be today... They don't even bother saying sorry if they accidentally bump into you, or try holding a door for anyone.

[Jack of Blades]

One thing that anger's me is how disrespectful some teen's can be today... They don't even bother saying sorry if they accidentally bump into you, or try holding a door for anyone.

I'd like to speak to the teenagers you know.
But I always say sorry.
It can actually be hard, wether or not you beleive it, to say sorry.
argh.
What did teenagers do to you o.O

[Protagonist]

What did teenagers do to you o.O
The teen's I go to school with are nothing more then disgusting and immature. They don't care about anything.

[Jack of Blades]

The teen's I go to school with are nothing more then disgusting and immature. They don't care about anything.

Like how?
Just know that they are young people, this is the learning point in their lives where they grow the most. Some can't be held accounted for the things they do. Some don't know any better.

Popular entertainment deserves some of the blame for the rudeness of today's adolescents. If you make hundreds of movies and TV shows in which teenagers are always right and adults are always wrong, it IS going to encourage the narcissistic egotism which is in the hearts of many teens, helping them to believe that they really ARE superior to others and so are entitled to be rude to others.

I agree with both of you...I watch about...0.5% of tv that the average teenager watches...I was telling my friends that I hadn't seen all these shows and movies they were talking about and they were astonished :p...I really don't want to watch tv...I'd rather read or practice archery :D...nearly everyone thinks I'm either "crazy" or "wierd", for various reasons, but if my life is crazy and wierd, then I want it that way :rolleyes: Let's see...I'm homeschooled, I watch very little tv, I love reading and the outdoors, I have very acute hearing and vision, and I love God, among other reasons :o

I have seen parents screaming at their kids...actually, at one of my sister's tennis tournaments, one parent was screaming at his daughter in a mixture of various languages...I couldn't understand him, but he was obviously yelling at her for something...she was crying on the court, and they had to forcibly drag him away...I feel really sorry for her

That is, no offence, a dumb excuse. True, there are various things that play into a person's behavior, and a lot of it could probably be traced to parenting problems, but I think teens are plenty old enough to be held accountable for their actions. There is a group of teenagers I know, in me debate class, and they are some of the kindest and most considerate people I know. Actually, they are more mature than some of the adults I know... It's not impossible for teens to behave like they should, and I think some people need to have higher expectations for teens' behavior.

I'm angry at my friend's brother for making me hide in a closet with him while we were playing hide-and-seek. :p

[SOS~]

My sister makes me so angry sometimes.

[loverble]

my sisters like to wind me up for the sake of it... it takes a lot to make me angry but when i am... lets just say i punch walls a lot around the twins...

If people, particularly parents and teachers, have low expectations of teenagers, they are going to have their expectations fulfilled. If, however, they have high expectations, without tearing them down in the process, then the teenagers are going to fulfill those.

Those are some wise words. :D but it's helthy to express anger

[Kahleina]

Depends on how you express it

[hello mcfly]

My family can get me very angry sometimes...

I try not to get too angry so I just stay in my room for awhile, listen to music...and draw...I found that just arguing with your parents doesnt help...so I keep the anger I have in myself and try not to break my whole room. :p But listening to music mostly calms me down

I am one of those people who has a short fuse, but normally I do not vent it on people, I just try to hold my tongue. However, when I do display my anger, I know that it is not pretty. I have scared people when I have let loose on them before.

[Kahleina]

I've scared people without meaning to by being myself :p

[SpiritedWolf]

I want to punch something really badly right now!!!!:mad: And after all my energy is drained from my body, I'll want to cry... but right now I really want to punch something... or someone!!!

Have you tried your pillow, it normally works.
