How to manage Wrathful emotions?

6 posts in this topic

I have been experiencing a great increase in emotions that appear to stem from a source of Wrathfulness.

I am not sure if the apparent origin is of importance but I shall say it appears to stem from dissatisfaction with many facets of my life. These areas include financial difficulties, sexual frustration, hatred for my work, and self mastery issues. I also find myself putting the blame onto sources that are even further removed from my direct experience.

I am experiencing a large increase in this kind of negativity. I have been what could be considered violently expressing this Wrath. It may jeopardize my work position, and by relation, my entire life as i know it, should I be unable to get a handle on it. 

Does anybody here have experience with this sort of thing?


If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take. If I should live for other days, I pray the Lord to guide my ways.

It sounds like your anger is trying to drive you to change your unsatisfying life…

Me too. Maybe it’s a way to avoid changing one’s own life by projecting the problem externally. Do you think these other sources could be to blame?

I partly see this as a problem with modern life, living in a managerial, “pass-the-buck” society, where one rarely confronts anything real. All of this anger builds up but there is no one to truthfully direct it towards, so you end up scapegoating whoever is convenient.

it might help a little bit to simply notice that this emotion comes and goes - it's not a permanent state.

other than that, what you are saying already suggests that there's some awareness of the circumstances causing this emotion. so changing and or recontextualsing the circumstances may help.

I do feel that this it is a strong signal for change. Part of me is ready to just go very, very, far away and leave everything behind. Though I see that this is an irrational way to attempt to solve such issues. I certainly feel that it is a long pent up anger and frustration that has begun to manifest externally as Wrath. I have never been one to truly express my anger and now it obviously has built up to the degree that it is challenging to contain or control and it is leaking out.

Maybe the reason you need to leave is irrational, though, especially since anger itself is irrational.

It reminds me of this song which I have just been enjoying:

I also struggle a lot with anger so your post feels relevant to me.
