A-B-C-D Anger Management

A – BE AWARE. Your body will tell you that you are getting angry; your heart may beat faster, you may begin to sweat or feel cold. You may blush or tense up.

B – BACK OFF. Just stop what you are doing. Give yourself time to calm down and figure out why you are angry. If the situation is making you angry or tense, go to a place where you can calm down.

C – CHECK OUT CHOICES & CONSEQUENCES. Think about what will happen if you do this or that. Who might get hurt? What will happen in the long run?

D – DECIDE AND DO. After thinking about all your choices, pick the choice that will be best for you and others – one that will respect and protect the rights of everyone involved.
