What is Anger Management
Substance abuse and anger often co-occur, with one usually coming before the other. Understanding your anger and managing it is an important part of your recovery.
Anger management is a form of therapy that helps you understand your emotions and develop healthier techniques for expressing your anger. Anger management isn’t about suppressing how you feel but finding healthier ways to express it. Because of the close connection between addiction and anger, Victory Recovery Partners provides anger management as one of the behavioral health therapies to support your recovery. Recovery may also trigger anger. After years of numbing your emotions, you may find yourself feeling a rollercoaster of emotions. Anger management helps you understand these emotions, potentially preventing a relapse.
Victory Recovery Partners provides comprehensive care for addiction and related mental health conditions, including anger.
We Get to the Root
What is the connection between anger & addiction?
Anger is a normal emotion that flares when you feel something is wrong or unjust. However, anger becomes a problem when you feel the need to express it in a way that harms you or others.
Anger and addiction often occur together. In some people, anger precedes addiction and, for others, the addiction triggers the anger. For example, your rage may be so intense you seek drugs to numb your pain. Or, you use substances that cause aggression, like cocaine.
Substance abuse may also trigger feelings of anger or resentment, especially when they cause other problems such as job loss or relationship problems.
