Tips for dealing with a loved one’s anger management problem

While you can’t control another person’s anger, you can control how you respond to it:
   Set clear boundaries about what you will and will not tolerate.
   Wait for a time when you are both calm to talk to your loved one about the anger problem. Don’t bring it up when either one of you is already angry.
   Remove yourself from the situation if your loved one does not calm down.
   Consider counseling or therapy for yourself if you are having a hard time standing up for yourself.
   Put your safety first. Trust your instincts. If you feel unsafe or threatened in any way, get away from your loved one and go somewhere safe.
