I have a huge...Boy am I ever with you on this one! I have a huge issue with anger and fight with it constantly. I really struggle with responding appropriately in lots of different situations because my first response is often anger, which then unfortunately clouds my mind and makes it hard for me to think things through. I can say though that I'm getting a little better all the time, but not without God's help! I still remember getting so mad when I was trying to potty train Riker that finally I sat down in my favorite chair during his nap and in tears read in my Bible every verse I could find on patience and anger. I got a bunch of construction paper and wrote some of them down, then hung them up around the house. Reading them when I was really upset helped so much to calm me down to the point where I could offer up a quick prayer before reacting to Riker. Do you have any little tricks you do to de-escalate?Jobinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00026043422743662317noreply@blogger.com
