Anger, anger, aggression - all these are socially disapproved feelings and emotions that we often have to hide deep inside ourselves so as not to disturb the peace of the people around us. But, as has long been known, there is very little benefit from this for the person who experiences these feelings. Suppressing emotions often leads to psychosomatic illnesses, and the process itself becomes automatic over time. We simply cease to be aware of our anger, instantly hiding it behind a smile full of pain. Over time, serious help from a psychologist is required, and now we are already in the cycle of complex events called “how to improve relationships with yourself?”. What to do? Let's start with ourselves! A few simple rules that will help you cope with your anger.1. Awareness of emotion. As soon as you feel emotional discomfort, try to immediately tell yourself what exactly you are experiencing right now: anger, anger, aggression, sadness, sadness, etc. Name what appeared inside you.2. Realize what exactly you are angry about now, what exactly is causing these emotions in you right now. Tell yourself mentally: “I am now angry at...”, “My grief and disappointment is associated with...”, etc.3. Tell yourself that you don't blame yourself for having these feelings. Also add that anyone in a similar situation could experience such feelings. Say that you accept these emotions in yourself and that this is normal!4. Try to express your emotions in words. For example, “I’m so angry now that I’m ready to stomp my feet and throw plates on the floor,” “I’m so sad that I want to cry and hide under the blanket,” “I’m so disappointed that I don’t want to see anyone at all, I want to be alone with myself.” "etc.5. Try to redirect your emotions to some inanimate object, express your emotions through drawing or writing. Find the most convenient way for you, but in such a way that it does not affect others. You can listen to music, go for a walk, crumple a block of paper and throw balls into a basket, play sports, sing at the top of your voice, hit a punching bag, jump, etc. You can experiment in this matter until you find something suitable for yourself. It is not recommended to use alcohol, nicotine and other harmful substances in situations where emotions run high. Since this can cause the onset of mental dependence. Self-destruction is not the answer! Strive to find the way to yourself, and not the other way around! And if, after all, events are out of your control, contact a specialist - the help of a psychologist can be the key to the door to happiness for you! Take care of yourself! Love yourself! Accept yourself! Author Baranova Anna
