Ever wondered if you have an anger problem? It might not be as obvious as you think, especially if you've learned to suppress or deny your feelings. In this episode of The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast, Michelle Farris, a licensed psychotherapist and person in recovery, sheds light on this often overlooked issue. Michelle shares four key ways to identify anger and five practical strategies to manage it effectively.

This is her third time on the podcast, and she brings a wealth of experience from her professional and personal journey. Michelle explains how anger can manifest in various forms such as anxiety, stress, and even depression, making it challenging to recognise. She highlights the importance of paying attention to bodily responses and the feedback from those around us. If someone in your life is concerned about your anger, it's worth considering their perspective.

Michelle also discusses the concept of passive-aggressive behaviour, a common way people express anger indirectly. By recognising these signs early, you can take steps to address your anger before it escalates. Michelle's advice is practical and compassionate, focusing on self-awareness and self-care. She encourages listeners to identify their early warning signs, rate their anger, and practice self-soothing techniques. Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable tips to help manage anger effectively.
