[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son with anxiety had a peak of this behavior at 10-11. He had therapy, so had some words for what he was doing. I’d just say “you are catastrophizing. Let’s take a walk and then talk about it” or “that’s negative self talk. You aren’t allowed to be meaner to yourself than you are to your friends.” I have anxiety and hair trigger anger and I used to do things like destroy my art and craft projects. In the moment the feeling is so overwhelming and the NEED to vent it with tearing or breaking or foul language is so hard to resist. It took me until my early 30s to get total control of those outbursts. I hope things get better! I am sure they will with time and maturity.[/quote] How did you work on the hair trigger anger?[/quote]
