Possible Forum

I am wondering if there would be any interest in having a forum on anger management.  There seems to be mounting evidence in local communities with rising crime and road rage, abuse in homes, job loses, economic problems that people are having a hard time dealing with anger.

It manifests itself in many ways.

Thanks for consideration and input.

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.

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,
