Healthy Ways to Show Anger Without Harm with Dr. Gabor Maté

[@gojiberry7201]

Holy crap, for 30+ years I believed I had never gotten angry in my life. (I was being treated for depression and anxiety) It wasn't until recently, that I separated from my enmeshed narcissistic parents, that suddenly rage came up so fierce that I felt like I was quivering. The repression is very very bad.

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

Thank you for taking the time to share your inspiring journey with us. It takes great courage to confront and handle our feelings, especially after suppressing them for so long. Your experience serves as a reminder that healing is a difficult process, and that admitting our feelings is an important step toward a healthier, happier life. I wish you continuous strength and development on your path to emotional well-being. Keep going; you are not alone on this path. Bless you! 💫💕🙏

Living with narcissistic parents really traps you. I realized that whenever i go to a vacation or stay away from my parents house, i feel so peaceful and can actually enjoy it when i talk to my father. I know there are much worse cases where people can't communicate with their parents even with a healthy distance. But i believe i can finally have a reasonably healthy relationship with my father after i move out (i hope). I'm happy that you freed yourself

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

@@laralynxx I feel very grateful that you shared your personal story with us. You are quite brave to acknowledge the impact of living with narcissistic parents and to actively attempt to improve your connection with your dad. Distance can sometimes provide a fresh perspective and an opportunity for each individual to grow as persons. It's important to remember that healing and transformation take time, and it's wonderful that you're positive about the future. Believe in your abilities to set boundaries and create a healthier relationship after you've moved out. Your journey may serve as an inspiration to others who are in similar situations.Remember that you are not alone in this, and your strength may be reflected in your willingness to heal and grow. Best wishes on your journey to a more peaceful relationship with your dad! 🌟❤🙏

I honestly believe this whole world is suffering from unresolved anger but because today we are not allowed to express or let out our anger for fear of what others think. Anger and stress is contagious.

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It's interesting to think about how society norms have changed, influencing how we communicate our feelings. While it is important that we find healthy ways to process and share anger, it is also important to establish a balance between expressing ourselves and being thoughtful of others. Anger and tension, for example, can have a domino effect on others around us. Exploring options such as open conversations and mindfulness may help us positively address and control these feelings. Let us work together to create an environment in which everyone's feelings are addressed while also encouraging empathy and understanding.🙏✨💖

I am66 years old.I was an abandoned then adopted then ignored and verbally and physically abused child. And went on to two other significant relationships one where I was ignored and disregarded and the next where I was emotionally. And verbally and so,times physically abused. Growing up I lived in an angry household . Parents who hated each other. Now. I live alone for the last 16 years. I’m realizing how much resentment I have. Towards myself in many ways but to many people who should n Have been caregivers and protectors. I need to find a way to end the resentment. Yes I know..forgive and forget. Tell me please by what actual process do I do that?

Keep in mind that you are not alone, and that there are individuals who understand and support you.

This is a fantastic video about "why" or "how" we get angry and an enlightening insight into the relationship between frustration and aggression. The only problem is that the title of this video is "Healthy Ways to Show Anger Without Harm." There is not one single offering of ways to Show Anger Without Harm. There is a brief discussion about getting therapy (asking for help) and even a recommendation (4:20) on how to be aware of the anger to focus on mindfulness or activities that encourage mindfulness (i.e. martial arts).

I was really hoping that Gabor would give some methods or techniques for releasing anger. But he didn’t seem to suggest how to express anger in a healthy way. Awareness doesn’t seem to be enough if the anger is repressed and unavailable. I’d be very grateful for any suggestions that anyone has found to be effective 🙏

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

I completely understand your point of view. While Gabor's perspectives on awareness are important, addressing the practical issues of expressing anger in a healthy way is also important. It is important to discover healthy strategies to express and manage anger. Mindfulness, deep breathing, journaling, and engaging in physical activities can all help with successfully processing and directing anger. Remember, it's all about finding out what works best for you. 🌟🧘‍♂️

[@N1CK_B]

Totally, Gabor’s perspectives on awareness are spot on, and he’s a truly wonderful teacher 🙏 I find Anger/rage expression to be a tricky subject because it can be toxic if it’s expressed OR repressed. So, What you said is so true, just have to find what works best for me. Sometimes this issue of releasing repressed emotions is like a hall of mirrors, and all I want is transparency

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

@@N1CK_B thanks for sharing your thoughts wit us. Bless you 💕🙏💕🙏

[@lollylula6399]

@@N1CK_B Journaling really helps me express anger in a healthy way. I let myself write freely whatever wants to come out, even now I can still be surprised at what comes out - like I didn't realise all that is inside. With anger some of it can be awful, aggressive, the worst language etc, but I just write until I feel I've written everything I need to about the situations/people/my feelings. Just the process of doing this gives me deeper understandings of myself, why I'm feeling the way I do, if I need to do anything. Then if I need to speak to others about, it because I've gotten it all out with myself, I feel more confident in being able to maintain my composure whilst speaking with them and I can more clearly speak to them because I'm clearer in myself. I buy really cheap writing paper/notebooks so I feel freer to just get it all out. Also, I find afterwards I don't particularly need to keep much of the writing & especially with the angry stuff I wouldn't want to upset others if they read it so I burn it afterwards. I can't recommend journaling enough.

[@MainelyLove]

For me the most difficult part is letting myself feel the anger. If it's about the past, the action to release it has to be symbolic of course. Once I let myself get angry, and took a rolled up magazine and whacked on a countertop while I spoke/shouted what I was angry about. And afterwards I felt a little bit lighter.

[@xenotbbbeats7209]

I'm no clinician but it seems obvious that unresolved anger is a form of self-harm. You can't win by harboring rage, and the only one who is harmed is the one within whom that rage resides.

[@jollymollyramram9702]

True. I think a lot of people have a difficult time expressing anger in the right way where you end up feeling better rather than drained. I find a good way to start is to do it small by always saying yes when I mean it and no when it’s a no. Imo it prevents the build-up anger/frustration. But slamming a door can feel pretty good too once in a while (I live alone)😅

I've been working with infernal gods ("demons"), and seven of them have either told me outright or indicated that my anger is problematic to the point of very real danger. I have no idea what to do with it; I don't feel it nor can I command it forth with memories of being victimized or seeing others victimized. I only have access to it at random times of the day - I often wake up frustrated - or when someone is rude to me, in which case I have immediate homocidal ideation that lasts for DAYS ON END.

[@princemishkin1601]

I don't but Gabor's thesis that ALL anger is healthy. Narcissists get angry when other people draw boundaries because narcs feel entitled to be in other people's space and to cross other people's boundaries at will. Narcs also become angry when challenged in any way, or criticised - this is not healthy, but pathalogical.

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. While some anger can be constructive, it is important to understand that not all anger is truly healthy. When dealing with narcissists, their rage is generally motivated by a sense of entitlement and an inability to take criticism. This form of rage is pathological rather than productive. Boundaries and constructive communication are necessary for maintaining healthy interactions. Thanks again and have a nice day

[@princemishkin1601]

@@yourinnerchildmattersThank you for this comment - I agree and just wish that Gabor had emphasised what you have just done above.

[@TamagoEgg]

Dr Gabor is right, however the context is nuance. The problem is that when we open up about our concern and what we are angry about. People react negatively than positively because of their shame and that enforces the idea of not opening up to them anymore. I may open up to others who tries to validate my perspective, doesn't have to agree to it but not being defensive when I state the problem.

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

You have definitely brought up an important topic. Dr. Gabor's insights are helpful and it is important to understand the complexities of opening up. Validating points of view without being defensive can promote understanding and growth. It's about finding people who actually support us, making the sharing process more productive.

[@bmac5576]

Dr. Gabor’s concluding comment that people with explosive anger can only be helped if they recognize that they need help, and usually think they don’t need it, is true. However, this leaves partners and children in explosive relationships in peril as the violence they suffer from those WHO NEED HELP is epidemic and tolerated in our culture.

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

thanks for watching and thank you for sharing insight. You have definitely brought up an important topic.

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

Individuals deal with their anger sentiments through a number of conscious and unconscious mechanisms. There are three approaches: expressing, suppressing, and calming. The healthiest approach to communicate anger is in an assertive, rather than aggressive, manner. To do so, you must learn how to express your desires and how to get them met without hurting others. Being assertive does not imply being forceful or demanding; rather, it implies respecting yourself and others. Anger can be controlled before it can be turned or redirected. This occurs when you suppress your anger, stop thinking about it, and concentrate on something positive. The goal is to control or restrain your anger and redirect it into more beneficial action. The problem with this type of reaction is that if it is not allowed to show itself outwardly, your anger can shift inward-on yourself. Anger directed inward can result in hypertension, high blood pressure, and depression. Anger that is not voiced might lead to other issues. It can result in pathological forms of rage, such as passive-aggressive behavior (reacting to someone indirectly, without explaining why, rather than confronting them directly) or a personality that appears eternally sarcastic and angry. Individuals who are continually knocking others down, criticizing everything, and making sarcastic remarks haven't learned how to express their anger constructively. They are unlikely to have many successful partnerships, which is not unexpected. Finally, you may relax on the inside. This includes not just regulating your outward actions, but also your internal responses, such as taking steps to lower your pulse rate, calm yourself down, and allow the feelings to pass. Simple relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing and peaceful imagery, can help reduce anger. There are books and classes available that may teach you relaxation techniques, and once you've learned them, you can use them in any situation. These are some basic steps you can take: Deep breathing from your diaphragm will relax you; breathing from your chest will not. Visualize your breath rising from your "gut." Repeat a soothing word or phrase slowly, such as "relax," "take it easy." Repeat it to yourself while taking deep breaths. Employ imagery; picture a soothing experience from your memories or imagination. Slow, non-strengthening yoga-like exercises will relax your muscles and make you feel much calmer. Use these techniques on a daily basis. Learn to use them automatically in stressful situations. Wishing you all the best. ❤🙏

When I was a young mother, which was some decades ago, I became aware I was reacting way too angrily to naughty things my children were doing. I wanted to change this pattern, but it seemed out of my control to do so. I felt guilty a lot of the time and desperately wanted to act differently. I was very concerned about how my inappropriate anger was going to effect my children in the long term. Once I accepted my 'normal' anger wasn't actually 'normal', given the situation, I found a counsellor. It seemed at first , as though I was acknowledging I was a failure, and this felt so uncomfortable, but eventually as I reached out for help things changed. I had a place to safely share how my my displaced anger scared me, and my counsellor helped me look into the roots of my childhood trauma experiences. It took courage to face my past and my present, but if I had not done so, I would have continued to pass on to my children, the anger/rage which had been passed on to me. John Bradshaw was quoted as saying, "what you don't pass back, you will pass on". I believe this to be so.

Please don't tell people to just back off and leave people like me all alone. It makes things way worse for us.

When all you see around you is people expressing anger in harmful ways, you develop an illusion that "anger" equals "harm". You don't ever learn to associate anger as an unmet need. I suppressed my anger because I bought the illusion. I am terrified of other people's anger for that same reason. I was hoping Dr. Mate would provide or demonstrate "healthy anger", but he did not. He needs to. This is our "missing piece". We don't believe you can express healthy anger because WE HAVE NEVER SEEN IT DONE! So don't really know how.

It's mainly an issue when authorities don't protect good and kind people, and it's more of an issue when you're faced with certain personalities (especially from other cultures) who interpret full and repeated easy forgiveness and Godliness as a form of lack of brains and a form of being a good and easy Human Prey and that's when your safety might get too jeopardized because of that, so in that case I guess you can consider being more assertive in the way they understand,(even if you're internally calm), and never show that you're too calm in such situations and in front of such personalities so you wouldn't get endlessly and more severely harmed (because of their cultural teachings about the interpretation of your calmness and ethics) or just evaluate the situation and find a way to make sure you're safe

So he is failing for some reason to say or explain how can a small child regulate its own anger? Who can explain anything to a let`s say three year old how to express healthy or unhealthy anger? I think no one wants to get into that so to me all this is just philosophizing. No answer how does a parent "regulate" a child`s anger. By letting it forever happen? Because if you do not learn to express and stop that anger then you will get angry on and on and that is also not healthy. So my point is you cannot escape the physiological processes that happen when you are angry. You can repress it or not. How do we know that we are not repressing, supressing ,healthy or unhealthy? Easy. If you want to say something to someone a a reaction then better not. Wait until you have cooled down and then speak or hold your peace. Better to keep your peace then ruminate. Also, they forget to teach people how to forgive truly. Because if you forgive you are free of anger. It does not control you. BUt all these MDs and psychologists do not know how to teach that. So yes, a philosophy it is with no applicability.

[@yourinnerchildmatters]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Anger management in children is a complicated subject. While teaching such skills to children can be difficult, many experts believe that utilizing simple language, suggesting alternatives to aggressive behavior, and modeling healthy emotional expression are all age-appropriate ways. True, regulating anger requires self-awareness and effective coping mechanisms. Learning forgiveness can surely help us break away from the hold of anger. While it may appear to be a philosophical topic, it has practical significance for different parenting and therapeutic approaches. Different strategies work for different people, and the journey of understanding and managing emotions is ongoing. 🌟

There was an Australian, Dr John Harrison, who published a very interesting book in 1984 revealing hus beliefs about the connection between illness and suppression of emotions. His book was called 'Love Your Disease'. He certainly was running against the tide of opinion of the medical fraternity saying such things back then. I went to one of his presentations and he talked quite a lot about healthy anger expression. His key point was, we can teach people to not throw their anger onto people, but onto pillows etc. How did he teach it, quite simply. He explained he had been able to teach his 2 year old this principle, so he felt adults could definitely also learn how to express anger without harming anyone. He said he gave his two year a cut down tennis racket, and a pillow. Any time his son wanted to express anger, he encouraged him to go to the place where he could whack the pillow/s and yell, and express his anger freely. The principle being his caregivers were totally comfortable with the child's expression of anger, and encouraged his anger expression. The boundary for his son was anger was not to be thrown at parents/people. Dr Harrison said, both parents were always available to comfort their son when he was done expressing anger at the pillow/s. I personally trained myself, lol, how to use this method, tennis racket, rolled up newspaper on a mattress etc. The key however is to take a deep breath before whacking, and let out a loud noise, yell while whacking a mattress. I usually would find the hurt, dissappointment, and even old hurt feelings by expressing anger in this way. Very cathartic, and life changing.

Most of the time when adults are talking about how a person can address his/her anger issues, they are talking about adults learning how. Childhood is a separate stage in life and I hope we all realize it is different and needs a different approach. In the US, and my opinion, children need to express themselves in acting out ways because they don't have any power. It's when we are grown and do have the power to decide that acting out our anger is inappropriate and frequently harmful to ourselves and others.

@@MainelyLove You make a great point here. Childhood is a special time in life, and dealing with anger in children requires a particular approach. It's important to understand that children are frequently acting out to express themselves when they feel powerless. Teaching kids healthy strategies to regulate anger as they grow up and gain more control over their life becomes important to their well-being and the well-being of others around them. Thank you for highlighting this important issue!👍🏼Bless You 🙏❤

thanks for watching

True, your comment is realistic. Both men and women have the capacity to express anger in unhealthy ways!

I think they’re just using women as an example but this can apply to both genders as well
