I get angry very easily and my anger shoots up to the extent of crying and breathlessness. I tend to shout but do not realize until someone points it out at home. My head starts to ache a lot and feels too overwhelming to handle at times, I've tried meditation and chanting but these things just don't seem to work and worsen my condition instead. I've been feeling too depressed and empty lately because my parents don't like to listen to me or my problems, thinking I might fight with them. But I never intend to. Everything just stays in my head like a mess 24/7 and I get mad when I see them lying about me to each other in front of me. I'm a musician and an engineering student who stays at a hostel where my mind is generally cool. I'm at home from the past 1.5 months and have to stay here for another month till my college reopens. P.S. I've never shouted at anyone except my own family (at home) and that too when I feel they're being too irrational which seems to be an everyday issue.

Dear Lybrate User, It can be difficult managing your anger in certain situations, family being one of them. Here are a few things you can try to manage your anger: 1.Take a time out: For example, if you find your parents telling you something you don't agree with, tell them you'll get back to them in some time and take a time out. Come back and chat with them when your'e feeling calmer. 2. Be mentally prepared: It is important to understand that often times, your parents may not see things the same way as you. When you want to have a conversation with them, plan it keeping this in mind. 3. Exercise: Physical activity can help reduce stress which may be causing your anger. Go for a brisk walk or a run. In fact, engaging in any physical activity or sports can help reduce stress and anger.
