Anger
Comprehensive treatment program for Anger to help you reclaim your life.
A dual diagnosis, or co-occurring disorder, is a mental health disorder that accompanies a substance use disorder.
Anger and addiction often co-occur, meaning that a person can suffer from both a mental health disorder (one connected to or causing their anger) and a substance use disorder (addiction) at the same time.
People with excessive anger may self-medicate with drugs or alcohol to try to manage their symptoms, which can lead to addiction.
In the US, over 9 million adults have a co-occurring disorder and half of those with a serious mental disorder have co-occurring substance use disorder.
To navigate anger, you and your care team may use a combination of therapy and medications. With the right treatment, you can manage anger and live a more comfortable, calm life.
Though feeling mad is natural, excessive or misplaced anger may require treatment. Here are a few signs you might have this type of anger:
- You throw, hit, or shake objects (or people) when enraged.
- Family, friends, or coworkers have brought up the severity of your anger. They may have also suggested treatment.
- You stew on what makes you mad and imagine getting revenge, or do get revenge.
- You yell and have outbursts equal to the sudden eruptions of your inner rage.
- Your loved ones have grown distant because of your unpredictable and hurtful anger.
- You unleash on strangers and employees. Some businesses may have you marked as an unwelcome customer.
- You may struggle to maintain healthy romantic relationships, or have one that's starting to strain.
- Your anger dominates all other feelings, making it hard or impossible to focus on anything else unless you can unleash it. Holding it in may feel exhausting.
Having these symptoms can take a heavy toll on your happiness, relationships, work, and overall well-being. But it doesn't have to stay that way.
The effects of untreated Anger can be profound, but recovery brings positive changes.
- Improved mental clarity
- Better emotional regulation
- Restored relationships
