What to do while he gets Anger Therapy?

Hi,

My relationship has come to the point where it is clear that until he has received help from a professional regarding his Anger Management issues we are done. So now he has signed up for group counciling every Thursday, has made an appt. with an Anger Management Therapist and really wants to get it fixed.

So what do I do in the meantime? I want to be supportive, show I love him, but he hasn't learned to manage his temper yet so there are still blow ups on the phone ( we have a long distance relationship). Help!!!

Its good that you let him know that your supporting him,but its also crucial to be clear that this is gonna be the end of the road if he doesnt get serious about getting help and improving the situation.This wont be something that improves over night, so be patient..it may be a long road.


Have you though about visitng a support group too?There are all kinds of support groups for family or/and spouses that can very helpful also.


Good luck,
