Youth Safety-Anger management

Controlling Your Anger
Anger is a normal emotion, but it is important to keep your feelings in check to prevent a situation from escalating. Follow
these seven tips that I have put together, for keeping your cool when it really matters:
1. Admit that you're angry: You can properly deal with your feelings once you are able to identify them.
2. Deal with it: Stop what you are doing, take some deep breaths, and count to 10.
3. Don't brush it off: Getting angry is normal. Ignoring your feelings will only make things worse in the long run.
4. Identify and understand the cause: Try to figure out the exact reason you are angry. Often people have an outburst
about something when they are actually upset about something different altogether.
5. Walk away: This pro-active step allows you to have the power to change a situation.
6. Get a new perspective: Attempting to understand the other person's perspective in an argument might help you keep
your temper down.
7. Vent to your family and friends: Explaining your feelings to those close to you might help you feel better about the
situation.
Redirect The Anger
Being angry for a long period of time will only cause you more pain. Try to find activities to take your mind off things and
help you relax.
1. Find a cause: Throw yourself into something positive. Volunteer at a homeless shelter, tutor a student at school, or help
out a non-profit group in your community.
2. Find a hobby: Learn something new! Paint, draw, play a musical instrument, cook, read up on a subject of interest.
3. Exercise: By taking some time for yourself and engaging in physical activity you will be able to gain some perspective
on your life. Hit a baseball or golf ball, even if you don’t golf, shoot basketball, jog around the block, hit a pillow, punch a
punching bag, things like will help you to release some of the pent up anger and frustration you feel. This is not about the
sport itself, it’s about venting your anger.
Change Things!
If there are times you feel angry, you can be sure there are times that others do too. Work with your school or community
to create a mediation and conflict resolution program. See if your school or church will start to offer anger management
classes so others can learn to keep their cool. Educate yourself on anger management and teach your kids, students,
families, and friends how to recognize their anger and how to diffuse potentially violent situations.
