I was just searching the site for any info on anger. I think having a forum on anger is an awesome idea
i think that is a GREAT idea to have a anger management forum on here.....is there one yet??
I think an anger management forum is a good idea. This is another "hidden" problem alongside mental illness, one that is difficult to talk about or admit to having.
I think it would good to have a support community for those who are struggling with anger issues on a regular basis.
I do think this would need fairly heavy monitoring though so that it doesn't become a mud slinging forum!
If there was a forum that people could vent about things they struggle with whether financial, relational, work-related, they could do it in a safe way and others who may have ideas can share them to deal with situations if they are requested. They don't have to give personal (identifiable) information. I know in the news locally there has been such an increase in crime with the economy in such a mess. I remember some years back I was asked by someone if it was ok to get mad at God. At that time, I hadn't really thought about it and from what I had learned through church teachings, it didn't seem like it was ok.
Now however, I have formed my own view that God is big enough to take it. I also think we learn through it. There is so much to "anger" and the ways it is shown or not shown.
Sounds like an interesting idea.
not a bad idea, it could help those who have issues with anger, the ones who dish it out and the ones who get it thrown their way,
