Sometimes I lash out uncontrollably because I don't know how else to deal with whatever emotion. I do things without thinking and lashing out is that result.

well personally, when keeping something pent up inside you can cause you to have episodes of rage or to lash out. This of course all depends on the individual, but maybe you are going through some things in a different area of life! Maybe you are stressed! Only you will truly know what is bothering you.

Anger can seem so hard to deal with! I've struggled with it myself. One thing that helps me is to identify the root cause of my outburst. Often, it's not the little thing I lashed out at that I'm truly angry at, but something bigger that I'm more deeply frustrated by. Taking a moment to understand what it is in currently struggling with and addressing that issue is often my best first step in controlling myself! Identifying and working through deeper anger issues helps and keeps me from feeling like I'm going to lash out at people/situations, etc on the regular.

People lash out for different reasons. Often people are in situations that are out of their control. You're likely reacting rationally in the only way you know how. Ultimately, it's up to you how you proceed. A good start is to determine what events preceed your lash outs. You can try writing down what happened before lashing out, or even just taking a few minutes to process what happened when you feel calmer. When you find the events where you feel like lashing out, you can decide if you really want to lash out or if you want to react some other way. Good luck.

Feelings of anger can be very overwhelming and can compound quickly. Anger is a secondary emotion. Meaning we feel angry when we have fear of sadness or being out of control. Anger can help us feel more and less in control all at the same time. Relaxation and self soothing techniques can be very helpful. Breathing, meditating, laying down for a nap, reading a book can all calm us and help stop the anger from growing. We need at least 20 minutes to fully come down from getting angry by something so be patient with yourself and try to let time help you calm

Often at times the reason we lash out uncontrollably is because a lot of anger and emotions that are shut down and made to back down over time. Physical activity, such as running, cycling or exercise even things like boxing, Martial arts or other activities which brings us peace and helps improve our mood such as painting and journaling our helps drain the negative energy out and helps control the over active emotions that may come across as harmful to us and to others and help us channel the anger in a better way that doesn't come across as harmful
