Learning to manage your anger is about practice and persistence. It is about developing new habits and behaviors and implementing them into your daily life.
In this workbook, you will be guided through many different methods of training your mind & challenging your existing ways of thinking. You will come to realize that success in anger management is about knowing yourself; gaining greater self-awareness and preventing triggering situations.
However, it certainly doesn’t stop there. Your strength comes from the preparation you will build to cope with and manage the most trying and challenging moments. Your measure of success will be your ability to do what is most difficult and uncomfortable: To change your responses and reactions to triggers and replace them with new, healthy, and more positive behaviors.
How Does CBT for Anger Work?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a technique that is used to alleviate many different mental health issues, life stressors, and problems like anger management.
When you apply CBT strategies to anger management issues, you learn to identify the thoughts, situations, or stressors that trigger your anger.
Typically, these circumstances lead you to respond in negative, unhealthy, even dangerous ways, jeopardizing your relationships with others and resulting in other serious consequences that will affect your happiness, your wellbeing, and your quality of life.
You might feel like you can’t control your anger once you are triggered or you might find it very difficult to control it. CBT helps you regain this control and develop greater confidence in yourself and your ability to cope.
Once you identify your triggers, CBT provides specific strategies to help you avoid triggers or learn to respond to your anger triggers in a healthier and more adaptive way.
CBT Exercise I for Anger Management: Identifying Triggers
Your anger triggers are any thought, situation, stressor, person, comments, or conversations that make it difficult for you to respond in a healthy and adaptive manner.
These circumstances may lead you to become frustrated, irritable, or may incite your anger to the point that you may be unable to control your overt reactions.
Your overt reactions are the way you express your anger For some people, this could include yelling, making threats, confronting another person, using curse words, making critical or inappropriate comments, or becoming physically aggressive.
In your journal, identify as many of your anger triggers as you can think of. Take your time and consider any thought, situation, stressor, person, comments, or conversations that occur where you tend to respond with anger and you find that you have difficulty controlling it.
CBT Exercise III for Anger Management: Replacing Negative Behaviors
Oftentimes, managing your anger comes down to learning new, more effective, and healthier ways of expressing yourself while keeping the consequences of your negative responses in mind.
In other words, it’s important to learn positive replacement behaviors so that you and those around you don’t suffer preventable consequences.
It’s critical to plan—ahead of time—for the possibility that if you are in a situation where you become angry, you’ll have various go-to coping methods or positive responses that you can use in these situations.
Once you come up with—and apply—these positive, replacement behaviors, you might find that your life becomes far less stressful.
As you know, anger can be physically and emotionally draining, but by developing effective ways to cope, you can uncover a very powerful source of inner strength that you have to regulate your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
