Characteristics

In my last entry, I told you what kind of anger I had. I further looked into it and found out some of the characteristics of my anger type. My anger comes out from nowhere, destroys everything, yet passes very quickly. I thought about it. I'm like a thunderstorm in the summer. I get this sudden burst of energy to yell, yet it passes quickly. Many times, I'll get upset. I'm not the type of person to bottle up my emotions, so I'll let it all out. I'll make as much damage as I see fit, and finish my rants. After my fits, I find myself regretting my actions and completely forget why I was yelling or realize that my actions were STUPID and completely unnecessary.

Thanks to my book, Letting Go of Anger: The Eleven Most Common Anger Styles & What to Do About Them, by Ronald T Potter-Efron, there is an entire first chapter devoted to helping people identify their anger types. I took to help me find out what kind of anger I had.
