Anger Management Definitions and Anger Management Worksheets

Anger Management Definitions and Anger Management Worksheets

Here is a brief definition of anger management. In the big picture of things, depression and anger each cause the other as well as result from each other.  Breaking this vicious cycle often means that depression has to be treated before out-of-control anger can be tamed.  However, anger often creates social disappointments and frustrations that contribute to depression.  Therefore, sometimes anger has to be tamed in order to tame the depression. I’m posting this video now in order to lay some groundwork for later discussing anger management worksheets and how to use them.

In this video I focus on anger management as regulating our physical states (think: adrenalin rush). But anger management has a lot to do with what we nudge ourselves to think about. This process of working with our thoughts in order to manage our emotions is what cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is all about. Anger management worksheets are tools to help us to think clearly about what we are thinking about so that we change our thoughts. Anger management worksheets also assume a basic understanding of anger management as presented in this video:

Choose Your Steps Wisely

Making life changes requires effort. It's as if we all have a stack of "effort chips" that we can spend on a problem.

People who say they have "tried everything" to change usually mean that they have spent all their effort chips on the problem.

The key is to spend your effort chips strategically. When you find leverage, the problem gets fixed before your effort chips run out.

The 12 skills are about spending your "effort chips" wisely.
