Managing Anger and Frustration

Coffee and registration from 09:00

Speaker

Led by Rhia Gohel from First Steps Surrey

Anger is a normal, natural feeling that affects everyone and, when triggered appropriately, it can be very helpful.   

However, for some people, anger can get out of control and cause problems with relationships, work, and even the law!  Uncontrolled anger can lead to arguments and physical fights, but sometimes it can cause people to 'bottle up; emotions and to feel withdrawn.  It can also sometimes lead to feelings of depression and low self- worth.  

The goal of effective anger control is not to eliminate anger altogether, but to learn to channel it into behaviour that is productive, not destructive.

This session, delivered by First Steps Surrey, aims to:

• Identify some of the reasons why we experience anger and frustration;
• Understand how anger and frustration can affect our thoughts, behaviours and emotions;
• Teach some self-help techniques to help manage anger and frustration;
• Provide some sources of further information and support
