From the ADD/ADHD Forum

How do you handle feelings of anger when faced with a situation where you just want to snap? This question was recently asked on our ADD/ADHD Forum.

"I have really been focused on how I communicate with people when I am mad or worked up and have been doing very well for the last year or so, pulling out all the new skills I have learned, doing my homework on learning to communicate and all that! Well, I found out today that in times of being blind-sided and thrown into a hot bed situation, I fell back on bad coping skills that were hiding just below the surface waiting and lurking! I was wondering what you all do when blindsided, how to you handle it and regroup?"
