Can't help being angry....

I usually start to have a good day, then outta nowhere I have a thought, then the thought becomes a worry, then the worry becomes anger. It's very irritating because I just can't help being angry. The thought is "what if I conversate with someone and negative thoughts rush in and completely blank my mind" (theres more depth to it) It doesn't happen, it comes to the mind, becomes a worry, then makes me mad for even thinking it. I keep telling myself "just float with it" "I accept this". But sometimes it's to late and I remain angry until I get home. (Happens at work). If there's anyone that can help me, or give me some tips on this problem, please do so. I appreciate the support.

Mark, I'm not going to be much help yet to your quest. I scored 74 on the anger evaluation test in session six and 100 on the assertive behavior evaluation in session seven. That means I'm an angry wimp! I have taken an extra week to review and practice these two sessions. all I can say is it's starting to make changes. You are not alone in your situation. If i don't have something to worry about I can actually make up something in my mind. before session I would have butterflys and tension in my chest and haevy hearty beat. And I didn't even know why. Start positive reinforcing thoughts to interrupt your worry. Sometimes when I don't catch the thought that caused the situation to start I flood my brain with all my good attributes I can think of and wait for my brain to catch up. I will keep you in my mind and my prayers. God bless and keep me updated as I wiil you. Looking forward to sharing many future successes; Bradley
