Abusing someone else is never acceptable. Just because you do not have effective anger management skills does not give you the right to be abusive to another person. Untamed anger can escalate into violence that could destroy your life and those around you. Sometimes it lands you in handcuffs and in front of a judge. It is not a great situation to be forced into an anger management program just because you could not control your anger.

Hopefully, you have not let your anger go too far. You really may want to think about how seriously the law takes anger aggression. Murders have been committed over less than an improper lane change. Anger management courses are filled with people who did not think they had a problem. Most anger “addicts” believe that they are in the right. This usually is a very, very misaligned perception. But you can manage anger by attending a course about anger management. You will be surprised to learn what your triggers are, how to resolve conflicts peacefully and how to be more assertive.

Aggressive people cannot be doormats for other’s but may only be able to assert themselves through anger and aggression. It may seem a bit silly to think of an aggressive person as being dominant but it may not be the case and they can still find themselves trying to manage anger in their lives. Just remember: there are times to be assertive and times to be aggressive. You must know the differences between the two.
