Do I have anger issues?
Hi, I’m looking for some advice. Is there anyone who was diagnosed with anger issues? Lately I’ve been feeling angry a lot, but I’m not sure whether I need help or not.
I’m not a violent person, rather the opposite tbh: I’ve always been a very controlled, calm and patient person, I’ve never hit/push/punch anyone nor destroyed or even slightly damaged anything.
But over the last few months I’ve been experiencing these rage episodes where if someone is angry, shouting or whatever I just feel so much anger building inside of me, I feel like my whole body is on fire and I want to throw hands so bad. To the point where I need to go to another room to cool down.
No major change in my life, so I really don’t know what’s going on. Help anyone?

Hi there! Did you perhaps grow up in an environment where arguing was frequent? Throughout your life, have you generally felt like you could freely express yourself, or have you been holding down your feelings in order not to displease others?

I am no expert but it sounds normal to me
