Do I Have Anger Management Issues?

7

My friends like to tease me a lot and I lash out. Sometimes I don’t mean to be mean, but other times I do. They seem to think it’s hilarious that I get annoyed easily, but I REALLY don’t.
Do I have anger issues?

Talk to your guidance counselor. It seems to me that your friends are antagonizing you and your inability to get them to stop causes you to panic. Your panic causes you to lash out as it is the only way you know to get them to stop. Problem and conclusion. Now you just need to find a new conclusion to get them to stop without lashing out.
Talk to your friends and if they don’t care, get new ones.

An occasional tease is one thing. But if you are being teased a lot you are being bullied and verbally abused. Read up on bullying and verbal abuse and then when they tease you, don’t get mad, tell them that what they are doing is abusing you and you are not going to tolerate it anymore. And you can give them an example by asking them, “How would you like it if I told you ___________” and pick something that you know would upset them. That way they can personally experience what you are experiencing as a result of their verbal abuse. This way you are asserting yourself and teaching them at the same time.

friends that tease you because you get angry easy and like to see you get angry aren’t very good friends but are bullying you if this is happening to you by the same people all the time.
my son has Aspergers syndrome is the gentlest person i’ve ever met, he does not understand people being violent towards each other and asks why and what it proves people seem to get violent with each other after arguing, but it only proves whose stronger not whose right, and sometimes their is no right answer just different ideas. he hates it when he has been teased for being different, and will put up with it sometimes for weeks, then suddenly he will lose it and start lashing out at everyone around him and throwing chairs around the other children enjoy this but it makes him sad and ashamed that he has not controlled his temper. other times he will turn his anger inwards hitting himself on the head or banging his head on the wall which they seem to enjoy even more.
i often say to him if more people felt like you about violence and used talking,the world would be a much nicer place, yes he’s used violence but after weeks of goading and we all have breaking points.
if you are being teased all the time who can blame you for breaking and being mean sometimes.

Perhaps you have anger issues – maybe you have friend issues. Dump those people – they are not good friends.
