Problems that anger and depression can cause

November 2nd, 2009

Emotions can sometimes be enjoyable or, at other times, be destructive.Emotions like love, joy, happiness are wonderful and good.  Then you have things like anger, sadness, or depression.They are also emotions but they can be hard to handle at times.People are able to channel that emotions and control it most of the time.But there can be situations which make these emotions dangerous.

For example depression is a tough thing.  It can be caused by a tragic event in someone’s life.Losing one’s family member to an accident or natural death can trigger it.Or it can also be caused by a chemcal imbalance in your body.One dangerous emotion that was shown in the news one time is when a man’s depression became and turned into an emotion called anger.His situation is so hopeless that his depression turned into anger. He was enraged,went berserk, and he hurt some people along the way.That is an isolated and extreme case but it does happen.  That is why as a depression counseling I try to tackle the problem head on before it can turn into anger.

Well, if it does turn into anger then you have to consult another form of counseling.  And that form is anger management San Diego help.Because unlike depression where the affected person’s mood is always passive.Anger can harm others and can be very dangerous.So if one is really dealing with anger then he/she or his/her relatives must see to it immediately before it worsens.

Of course in my family counselor San Diego practice I see a full range of emotions.I usually see it when it is already affecting the family.  That is when counseling is appropriate. One thing you don’t want to happen is let uncontrollable emotions destroy your family.And the goal of every counselor is to stop it while it is still in its early stages.  A good thoughtful counseling program can do that and save many families.  It has happened time and time again with good counseling.

The reasons why some succeed and some fail in sports

October 28th, 2009

Sports and finding out how to succeed is a real funny thing.  You can have a superb athlete who can’t find success.Then you might have someone who is average at best yet becomes super successful.At first look it doesn’t seem explainable.But when you take a closer examination you see the real reason some have success and other fail is the mind.But what is the reasons for that?In this article we are going to examine it a little closer.

So why does the mind play such a big factor in sports?  As a San Diego sports psychology I have been priveleged to see first hand why this is so.First thing to realize is the fact that the stereotype of big dumb athletes is false.  Athletes are some of the brightest individuals around.  And the most successful ones use are successful because they know how to use the mind.

Funny thing a lot of athletes come in needing my anger managementcounseling practice.  Most of the time this anger stems from their failures in sports.But what I can do is help them turn it around.The way to really help them is to show them how failure begins within the mind.By learning how to use the mind effectively, they can accomplish great things.It has proven itself over time many times.

Once the athlete is truly able to understand the power their mind has they can achieve success.  Most of the time they can achieve tremendous success.  It is like most things in life.The mind is so important when it comes to taking action and getting results.I take notice of this not just with athletes but also see it in families.  The family therapist San Diego practice I run I have used some of the same principles to help families achieve success.Success in being able to deal with any family struggles that happen.  In life and sports a lot of times the key is in your mind.

Anger management and how it can improve family life

October 23rd, 2009
Comments Off

One thing that all people have is their emotions.  On some people these emotions are more easily displayed.Some emotions are good for a person especially when displayed like happiness.  Some people show emotions of excitement and happiness.Other people tend to show more sadness or more anger than happiness. All people have emotions and they usually express it but sometimes they get out of hand. Anger is one of these emotions.

As you have read in this article anger can be dangerous and detrimental to family life. In my practice doing anger management counseling I have seen the effects it can have on a family. It could make staying with that person very very uncomfortable for the people staying with him/her. It makes everybody nervous and afraid to say something because they might get scolded. It make a place of safety into something that is negative. The place of safety I’m referring to is our homes. 

It may be surprising but anger sometimes stems from an emotional issue like depression. Whatever reason there is this person might be in a depressed state. Often times it leads to anger when some problems seem unsolvable or there is no way out. That is why I advice everyone feeling depression to seek a depression counseling. It is best to stop something before it escalates into something worse. Because sometimes it just does not lead into anger but into something where they eventually hurt themselves. 

Either way these two emotions whether they stem from each other have to be dealt with. If you let either keep going it can get worse.It can ruin your family. It can ruin what was once a good relationship.  Being a family counselor in San Diego I stress the importance of good relationships in family life. So I stress to my readers that emotional issues should be dealt with asap. Sometimes it is hard to go to someone for help. But this can be very helpful in the long especially for the family of and the person affected.
