anger rant: angry/annoyed over nothing called for?

[Maniac]

From your profile I see you're only 19 - or you were when you joined - this I would guess is a lot to do with how you feel at the moment - it's just a trait of your personality - as you recognise this feeling of anger you are unlikely to act on it and as you grow older your attitude on life will change . When I was your age I was very short tempered and intolerant but as I matured I grew more patient - my mood swings lessened and I accepted life for what it is and achieved peace within myself .

I wouldn't worry mate - you'll be fine

I've always been short tempered and intolerant. I made the changes I wanted to to make things easier. It never goes away fully and it's all about control or lack of it leading to frustration or unhappiness. Make the changes you need.

The reason for quoting in the above is that youth lends to this and learning about your needs helps as you get older. Though I'm in my mid 40s now and think I'm turning into victor Meldrew lol

Insomnia, anger, the things you describe sound like they come from a deep inner issue which hasnt fully manifested itself yet. It could be anything from a childhood trauma, genetic disposition to mental health issues, even sexuality.

At least you wrote about it(and admitted it), more than some of my family members ever did.

Those members who say "man the f**k up", need to realise that if someone is sick, even by talking about it they are half way to solving it, and perhaps be a bit more tactful.

Anyway... One good suggestion is see the GP for CBT (behavioural therapy) because even if you end up just talking and seeing more different people about it, you may then realise there is no golden hammer to cure you, but at least you're trying. No different to the gym, you won't lose weight overnight, nor will you become superman with gym alone-it is a combination of sleep and nutrition too, but until you start at the gym, you aren't aware how much the others help? Hope you understand what I am getting at.

I used to be angry a lot too, it was a combination of a lot of things (mum died young) - family, being bullied etc. Found peace with myself but it wasn't until I was almost 30, still have to remember to relax sometimes. Put all my anger and energy into something positive and started a company when I was your age. Took a few years to get going, as I had a whole life of experience to gain, but I always paid the bills and kept myself afloat, gave me a lot of self confidence and made me realise I can do something really positive.

Good luck and remember you can brain dump here anytime.
