Anger Management: The Grandiosity Personality Type
People
who have a grandiosity personality type are inclined to anger
outbursts. A person with grandiosity characteristics may believe that
he or she was isolated out from everyone else when he or she does not
get his or her way. People with grandiosity personalities will say
things like, "that was a lousy idea since those people are stupid
anyway".
A person of this mentality may believe that other people would have
acted the way that they did in a similar situation. There are many
characteristics to grandiosity that are disturbing and when a person
has a disturbed mentality, he or she is prone to anger.
This type of person will have a hard time managing stress, and will
often act out on feelings when they feel threatened. This means they
are inclined to insulting others intellect, cursing at the situation,
attacking another persons mental status, and even acting out violently
when they are upset.
This type takes us to a whole new level of comprehending anger, since a
mental illness is often underlying the emotions. A person of this level
of anger is known as a narcissistic personality type. Paranoid
schizophrenias, histrionic personality types, and a few other disorders
have a grandiosity personality underlying the diagnosis.
If a person is disturbed due to a mental illness then anger management
may or may not be a realistic approach. Most histrionic personality
types are set in their way of thinking; therefore, more professional
therapy is needed to deal with this type.
If you have anger outbursts, you may have felt remorseful after the
disturbance. On the other hand, if you have a histrionic or paranoid
personality, remorse is typically not the result. A person has to have
feelings of guilt to be qualified for recovery in anger management.
Although the psychotherapist may be able to treat it, it will be
minimal. Unfortunately, in some cases of this type of anger, there is
no treatment and the subject could eventually take another
person’s life.
Unmanaged anger includes, striking, hitting, punching, assaulting
mentally, verbally assault, and even murder. Now we are looking at a
serious concern since everyone is at risk of being subjected to this
type of personality.
A more common form of anger is mild insulting, such as you were acting
like a creep. Alternatively, damn why did you do that? Some might even
say something like, "why did you center me out". The person will raise
their tone of voice assertively, and often stomp away when the person
does not respons as he or she intended.
There are forms of anger that can be dealt with and some are rooted
from jealousy. Well, the world is acting out of accordance to
man’s beliefs much of the time so in many instances there is just
cause. The solution is dealing with it so that it does not get the best
of you.
For example if you are married and are suspicious that your spouse is
having an affair, you may confront this person rather than accusing.
Find out the facts before you blow up and cause chaos.
If the person is having an affair then you have two options. You can
forgive the person's infidelity and carry on or you can hire a lawyer
and find a more suitable mate.
If you decide to stay with the person, remember you have forgiven him
or her, so do not bring it up when another argument occurs. If you have
a grandiosity personality, you will need help, since the hurdles are
more difficult for you to go over. Do not be a failure control your
anger before it controls your life. When a surge of anger sweeps over
you, try taking deep breaths and calm down.
