How anger often covers the true issue

I've been covering Movember and one topic that I was requested to talk about was anger, First I will say if someones anger issues are putting you in direct threat physically or to your mental health your well within your rights to step away and should do if abuse is ever involved.

Anger as an emotion is a tricky little devil, it's one the acts as a mask to cover how you actually feel. We all get angry, think back to when you have felt angry, when you have "lost control" was it truly the anger or was it what happened during the day (a final straw so to speak), was it frustration, a call to be left alone or one for help, was stress that things were going wrong, grief at a loss, the struggle to finish an essay, whatever triggered the anger there is always a reason.

People that appear alwags angry are no different, there are just dealing with longer lasting triggers that may well need further help. There are so many conditions these can fall under I'll name you 3 depression, anxiety and PTSD; all with treatment options. That's just the mental health though because bad pain management for chronic illness is just as bad. Family doctors are a good place to start if anyone is wanting to get help.

Remember to keep yourself and each other safe. You all matter.

Feeling Depressed

Feeling very depressed right now.. been struggling a lot lately with money and feeling like a failure... I have a job interview tomorrow that I hope goes well and will hopefully put me back on track career wise and financially. My current job is okay but is not enough to to take care of my bills. My boyfriend has been struggling to find work too. Just a lot going on... #Depression #Anxiety #CheckInWithMe #itsokaytonotbeokay #Movember #mightymen #ItsOKMan #Anxiety #Depression #PTSD #BPD #MensMentalHealth

There is nothing average about being average

The world has a way of making you feel average.

Opening up LinkedIn opens you up to a world of humblebrags.

You never quite get to Inbox Zero and you wonder if you ever will.

We live in a culture where everything is ranked. 30 under 30. 40 under 40. The _____ Of The Year Awards.

The world makes you compare, it makes you compete.

But life is not a race. You set the pace.

There is a fine line between striving for excellence and compete to fill the bottomless ego.

Life is a walk, a meandering one that is, where detours are welcome, and stumbles are a must.

And walks are better with friends.

This #Movember , let us stumble together, and pick one another up, one step at a time.
