Book Girl Behind the Fence  Anger

Download or read book Girl Behind the Fence Anger written by Mozelle Martin, Ph.D. and published by Mozelle Martin Press. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It may surprise you to know that 70% of human behavior is based on emotions, not logic. In fact, it is very easy to get increasingly irritated at people, places, and things. ​As an example, does any of this scenario sound familiar? It’s Monday morning and you are ready to face the day. Everything at home is calm – pets are happy, coffee is ready, your hair and make-up turned out great, and you look and feed good. You get in the car and slowly and methodically enter the parking lot otherwise known as morning rush hour. You finally get some open space and, as you move into the fast lane, a very slow driver creeps out in front of you. As you hit the brakes with required force, you take a deep breath, think a few unkind things, but try to let it go. At lunch time, the retired guy in front of you is bitchin’ about the one-too-many pickles he got on his burger, and now you are running late. You decide to eat on the way back to the office, only to find your order is completely wrong. How dare that inconsiderate old man ruin your lunch over a damn pickle – I bet he couldn’t really taste the difference anyway! With no time to go back to the restaurant, you turn on the radio to invite a pleasant distraction only to hear about a highway shooter, racial rant, or political attack. As you continue on, all you can think about is how your whole day has been ruined by idiots. Unfortunately, a version of this story is all too common for many, which makes it that much easier to feel the anger around us – from our own children and spouse, to our parents, siblings, co-workers, and even complete strangers. Animal lovers are angry because people eat meat, vegans are angry because of Monsanto, dancers are angry because a non-dancer was chosen for their event poster, environmentalists are angry because of developers, young mothers are angry over immunizations, and the list goes on. Yet, anger - which is characterized by a feeling of antagonism toward someone or something that you feel has deliberately done you wrong - is not always bad. In fact, angry feelings often provide the motivation needed to solve social issues such as gender inequality, the environment, minimum or stagnant wages, taxes, and student loans. This was the case with many historical figures such as Martin Luther King, Mother Teresa, and Mahatma Gandhi. Science has shown us that nothing exists without it’s opposite. Unfortunately, science has also shown us some disturbing facts. Recently, through extensive research on the topic of anger, The Mental Health Organization, Gallup Polls, Duke University, National Mental Health Institute, and others have openly shared these statistics: 64% of the population view the world as an increasingly-angry place. 32% of the population has a close friend or family member with out-of-control anger. 12% of the population admits to having trouble controlling their own anger. 28% of the population admits they are worried about their current level of anger. 20% of couples have ended in divorce because of the behavior of the angry partner during the outburst. Only 13% of those with out-of-control anger have actually sought help for it. 58% of angry people don’t know where to seek help in their communities. 84% of the population agrees that angry people should seek help for their anger. 62% of those who did seek help with anger, did so from counselors, therapists, and medical professionals - not friends or family members. 10% of adults have a long history of explosive anger and have access to a firearm. This significantly increases the risk when anger develops. 8% of adolescents up to age 12 are diagnosed with a mental illness known as “intermittent explosive disorder” which is three times more common in boys than girls. This is usually inherited from a mother who has a history of high anxiety. Without treatment, this continues into adulthood. Of these diagnosed adolescents, 6.5% were treated for their anger while the others were treated for depression or substance abuse. 80% of drivers admitted to road rage. Of these: 51% tailgated, 45% honked, 33% used angry gestures, 47% yelled, 24% blocked the lanes, 12% cut another driver off, 4% physically got out of the car to approach the other driver, and 3% rammed into the other driver's vehicle. Many used several of these in the same occurrence. Additionally, the majority of the 80% are from states with four distinct seasons. Most aggressive acts are committed by males between 19 – 39 years old. Males are three times more likely than females to act on anger. One-third of all deaths by firearm are homicides. Regardless of age, gender or geographical location, anger is cumulative. You may be able to control your anger 10 times but, on the 11th time when something seemingly small occurs, you erupt out of control. While it is nice to know that research has verified these facts that help us increase our own personal and community awareness, science also proves we mellow as we age. In other words, as our anxiety calms down, so does our anger which allows us to become more conscientious, agreeable, accepting, responsible, compassionate, and emotionally stable. All of this information is interesting BUT do you really want to walk around another 20, 30 or 40 years feeling this way? ​ Likely not. That is why this book exists… to help you stop sabotaging jobs, relationships, and happiness. It takes a strong desire and willingness to do the work that can change your angry attitude and the benefits are worth it. Unfortunately, anger can become habitual in one's brain and that's why it is hard work. The goal with this book is to share personal stories, tips, and tools to help you successfully make it to your elder years. Once there, biology will take over and do the work for you. FIND OUT IF YOU COULD BENEFIT FROM RECEIVING HELP FOR YOUR ANGER: (1) Do you get angry over small things, or even for no obvious reason at all? (2) Do you have a difficult time not thinking about whatever or whoever made you angry? (3) When you feel angry, do you wish to break something or beat someone up? (4) Do you easily get irritated when people do not understand you? (5) Do you embarrass family, friends, or coworkers with angry outbursts? (6) Do you get irritated when people in front of you drive the exact speed limit? (7) Do you easily get irritated when people do things they shouldn't like go barefoot in the store, smoke in a non-smoking area, or have more than 10 items in the express checkout lane? (8) Do you yell or curse when irritated but not do so when you are in a good mood? (9) Do you get easily frustrated when machines/equipment or technology breaks or does not work as expected? (10) Do you get irritated when people take advantage of you or when people are "idiots" (incompetent)? The more "yes" answers you have, the more you are struggling with anger issues. Inside of this book are the stories of 18 women who, just like you, have felt consumed by anger. Contrary to popular belief, anger is neither good nor bad; it is your reaction that matters most. Did you know that suppressing your anger can also be destructive to your health? Yet as we already viewed, expressing anger constructively can be a powerful catalyst for change. ​The personal insights, tips, and tools in this book can help you put the brakes on your anger just when you need it most.

Book Girl Behind the Fence  Loneliness

Download or read book Girl Behind the Fence Loneliness written by Mozelle Martin, Ph.D. and published by Mozelle Martin Press. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 42 million adults struggle with chronic loneliness, if you are one of them, this book will offer you some instant relief! As of 2017, approximately 42.6 million adults over age 45 struggle with feelings of chronic loneliness. Twenty-five percent of the population lives alone, and over 50% of the population is unmarried. Results from a recent study of 300,000 participants prove that individuals with weak or non-existent social connections actually increase their risk of early death by up to 50%. As a result of these shocking statistics, more social outreach programs have been put in place to help conquer this nearly-imminent worldwide loneliness epidemic. Since life began, we have had a strong sense of belonging. Whether to a small family or a large community group, this fundamental need powerfully affects our mental and physical health. However, even if we interact with co-workers all day, surround ourselves with a large family, and are in a decades-long marriage, we can still feel very alone. With the click of a button or the help of social media, within seconds we are provided with more opportunities than ever before; among these opportunities are thousands of ways to connect to fellow human beings. Logically we know that reaching out for help is key in combatting this deep and pervasive feeling, yet we don't do it. Why? Typically, we dislike admitting to ourselves and others that we feel lonely for fear we may appear unlikeable and vulnerable. Moreover, we have been conditioned as a society to not show our feelings. Instead, we try to ignore our uncomfortable thoughts and emotions, hoping they will go away on their own. They usually don't. Consequently, we feel anxious and rejected as if a fence separates us from the popular crowd, thereby allowing us to secretly obsess over our perceived defects. Despite all of us having an innate need to connect with our fellow humans, the degree of that need varies. For example, you may feel lonely when not around other people. On the other hand, I may feel completely exhausted when I am. Yet, despite our individual differences, our DNA strands are programmed to satisfy our need for belonging, whatever our unique need is. Perhaps you feel that you are not really lonely, just socially selective. Find out via the included questionnaire. Then, to help you combat loneliness, the personal insights from these authors will help provide you with hope and inspiration; the tools they used to guide themselves out of the emotional quicksand and just may be the life jacket you've been searching for. Whether down the street or across the world, you are truly never alone because also inside of this book, are the ways in which you can reach out to each author individually for continued support.

Book Angry Rain

    Book Details:
  • Author : Maurice Kenny
  • Publisher : State University of New York Press
  • Release : 2018-09-10
  • ISBN : 1438471076
  • Pages : 170 pages

Download or read book Angry Rain written by Maurice Kenny and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maurice Kenny's career as a writer, teacher, publisher, and storyteller spanned more than six decades, during which he published over thirty books and became one of the most prominent voices in American poetry. From the early 1970s onward, he was instrumental in the resurgence of Native American literature through both his celebrated volumes of poetry, such as I Am the Sun and the award-winning The Mama Poems, and his work as an editor and publisher. Angry Rain, his bittersweet memoir, reveals this rich literary life by recounting its tumultuous "first half...plus a bit," a time during which he moved through a series of worlds that all left their marks on him. Kenny begins with his early years spent among his family in the small northern New York city of Watertown and continues through an adolescence marked by both significant awakenings and grievous traumas. Determined, Kenny sets out to seek his fortunes and find his poetic voice, landing in the Jim Crow-era South, in St. Louis, in Indiana, and finally in New York City, where he becomes part of a motley creative group of performers and poets that offers both fascinating inspiration and disheartening rejection. These recollections end with Kenny's maturation into a poet whose reaffirmed indigenous heritage unified an artistic vision that remained in conversation with a wide range of other themes and traditions until his death in 2016.

Book She Speaks Her Anger  Myths and Conversations of Gimi Women

Download or read book She Speaks Her Anger Myths and Conversations of Gimi Women written by Gillian Gillison and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-12 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking a novel approach that adapts Freud’s theory of the Primal Crime, this book examines a wealth of ethnographic data on the Gimi of the Eastern Highlands of Papua New Guinea, focusing on women’s lives, myths, and rituals. Women’s and men’s separate myths and rites may be ‘read’ as a cycle of blame about which sex caused the ills of human existence and is still at fault. However, the author demonstrates that in public rites of exchange in which both sexes participate, men appropriate and subvert women’s usages as a ritual strategy to ‘undo’ motherhood and confiscate children at puberty. In doing so, she reveals how Gimi women both rebel against the male-dominated social order and express understanding of why they also acquiesce. The result of decades of fieldwork, writing and reflection, this book offers an analysis of Gimi women’s complex understanding of their situation and presents a nuanced picture of women in a society dominated by men. It represents an important contribution to New Guinea ethnography that will appeal to students and scholars of psychoanalysis, gender studies, and cultural, social and psychoanalytic anthropology.

Download or read book Beyond the Woods written by Paula Guran and published by Start Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2016-07-05 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once upon a time, the stories that came to be known as “fairy tales” were cultivated to entertain adults more than children; it was only later that they were tamed and pruned into less thorny versions intended for youngsters. But in truth, they have continued to prick the imaginations of readers at all ages. Over the years, authors have often borrowed bits and pieces from these stories, grafting them into their own writing, creating literature with both new meaning and age-old significance. In the last few decades or so, they’ve also intentionally retold and reinvented the tales in a variety of ways—delightful or dark, wistful or wicked, sweet or satirical—that forge new trails through the forests of fantastic fiction. This new anthology compiles some of the best modern fairy-tale retellings and reinventions from award-winning and bestselling authors, acclaimed storytellers, and exciting new talents, into an enchanting collection. Explore magical new realms by traveling with us, Beyond the Woods . . .

Download or read book Angry House written by Alexis Kennedy and published by Title Wave Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frozen in its sinister history, the house waited for him. Searching for solitude along Vermont’s back roads, dejected author Rhett Shaw discovers a dilapidated and abandoned house. Sitting alone on a private road, the house offers Rhett a quiet setting to finish his next book while he repairs it to its former glory. While renovating the house, strange noises, visions, and feelings overwhelm Rhett, making him question his sanity. Despite the phenomena, however, he becomes obsessed with the restorations, and the more sweat he pours into them, the more he feels the house urging him. As the house takes shape, so does Rhett’s new book, which seems to write itself. His characters embed themselves inside his thoughts and possibly—he fears—his actions. The same crimes he includes in his manuscript are plaguing his new community in explicit detail, and the distraught author can’t tell if he’s depicting them before they’re committed or after. Is he psychic, or is he the perpetrator? She whispered, “It gets angry, and then it consumes you.” Ages 14+

Then read about how a special woman, who became Ned's wife, helped him to see that there was more to life than fighting.

The book intends to fill an academic gap in adolescent literature by providing case studies of individual adolescents from difficult home backgrounds and how they behaved in a certain situation in the years of the mid-sixties. The first section of the book provides a description of how young people work and spend their leisure, along with a sociological assessment of the district. It is followed by a discussion on the birth and the development of the youth club. The remaining sections deal with varying behaviour patterns in relation to money, sex, employment and other aspects. The book has been made readable to the general reader who is interested in young people, not only to those engaged in youth work, without compromising on any aspect of educational psychology.

To guard their secrets, people build fences. Before his struggle to build a good future on the wreckage of the past could be successful, he had to understand the secrets and accept the fences.

Book Going From An Angry Man To A Peaceful Man Is Not An Easy Journey

Download or read book Going From An Angry Man To A Peaceful Man Is Not An Easy Journey written by James E. McCullough and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-10 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Going From An Angry Man To A Peaceful Man Is Not An Easy Journey By: James E. McCullough When young, many choices people make can lead them to become an angry person. This was the case with James McCullough. Like most people, he could not see what had taken place within his spirit because he could no longer feel his heart. He wanted to share how things make us all feel or not feel and what we can and can not see going on within ourselves because it is easier to be mad at the world rather than face our own mistakes. Everyone must stop running away from themselves and stand in order to see who they may have become by seeing themselves through the eyes of others. After that, you must listen to yourself! Then look within to ask: “Who does Jesus say I am?” and “What road do I want to travel in this life and the next?”

This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the pulpit to the parking lot, anger has become a debilitating cancer to the souls of Christians. A cancer that stunts the spiritual maturation and matriculation of Christians every day. However, the Bible still suggests that Christians possess the ability to be angry and do no harm. I then propose that anger is not the problem. Rather, it is our learned response to anger and untreated emotions that lead to challenges in life and the sin that may follow. This begs the questions, what is anger, what is its origin, and how do we manage it? Listen, sisters, I invite you to trek with me through this dark tunnel, my thirty-year journey from hurt to healing. A healing found in the most unsuspecting placeaEUR"in the perfect will of the Father. So, grab a pen, a toasty drink, your favorite notebook, a box of tissues, and brace yourself to laugh out loud as I share my untold story and provide you with practical, yet amazingly powerful tools that I have learned along this journey to living my best life in Christ.
