Anger Management 101: How To Tame A Mad Man

We are all different when it comes to handling anger. For example, what if you were given the wrong order in the restaurant and you don’t have enough time to eat? Some people will just eat the wrong order to avoid the hassle of having to argue with the restaurant staff. Others will be really upset and some will even upset the table. Come to think of it. It is even more difficult if, in that situation, if you were the waiter who gave the wrong order.

Dealing with an angry person is not as easy as ABC. Angry people

are like “demon-possessed”. When people are angry, they are capable of doing things they even never thought possible. It is kind of like the brain shuts down temporarily when we are mad.

This means that when you deal with an angry person, bear in mind that the angry person can hurt you unconsciously. You must handle an angry person with extra care. Most people use the magical words, “Calm down.” and it does work but don’t overdo it. If you overdo it,

it is very likely for you to say, “I said calm down! How many times do I have to tell you to calm down! Can’t you understand what calm down means?” Next thing you know, the angry person will tell you to calm down, too.

Let the angry person talk. Don’t interrupt. Remember, angry persons talk without “thinking”. They tend to speak hurtful words so be ready for it. If you were hurt by such angry words, remind the person later when he or she is back to his or her senses.

Angry persons could be very violent, too, so make sure that they are away from any deadly weapon. There are many cases when an angry person killed someone and regretted a lot after.
When you deal with a mad man, make sure that you are not mad, too, and be sure that you will not get mad at the moment.
