Life In The Slow Lane

by Amy

I have a relationship, and I am a teen. Of course I have my mood swings, but I think it's more when people make me mad I overreact and I can't control what I do.

I usually curse, which I hate doing, or I strike the person. It seems like it only gets worse. I really need someone to talk to please.

Response from Dr. DeFoore

Hello Amy, and thanks for telling your story here. You have a story behind your anger, and you need to know what that story is. If you do the journaling processes described on this page, I think it will help you understand and heal your anger.

You're a good person inside, Amy, and that's why you want help with your anger. You may also want to do the imagery process called, "See It Don't Be It" described on this FAQ page, which will help you manage your anger successfully.

I also suggest that you read these pages on relationships:

quotes on relationships
relationship advice

You said you need someone to talk to. I offer counseling services, which you will find described on this page.

You can do this, Amy, and reach all of your goals. Believe in yourself and the good person you are inside.

My very best to you,

Dr. DeFoore
