9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Um, so why are you [br]here today?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You don't know?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: Because I'm angry,[br]according to my best friend.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Okay.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
How about you?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: Some dumb judge sent me here.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: And yourself?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: He doesn't want to talk about[br]it I guess.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: How about you?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: Because my momma made me[br]because she thinks I'm angry.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
She's thinks I'm angry [unintelligible] [br]but I don't.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Okay, so let me ask [br]about feelings.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Do you all feel like maybe, you might[br]have a slight anger problem.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: No.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's not my fault, people piss me off,[br]and they do stupid things and they

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
get in my way, and they make me angry.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Maybe you should try to[br]control yourself, count to 3, count to 10.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: I can't count to 10.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Why can't I just punch you in[br]the face?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Because that's not what we[br]do in society.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[coughing]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: I can do it I don't care.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[cough]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: T-that's why I'm here, so.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: You're not supposed to do that.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You can-there's other ways you can take[br]out your anger.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You can, er-sorry y'all are not, um, [br]there's other ways you can take out

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
frustrating feelings, you can go, you can[br]go for a run, you can exercise.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: I don't like working out.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: There's many options, there's[br]and array of options.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You can-you can paint.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: I don't like painting.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Um, what's one of the things[br]you like to do.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: Nothing.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: She likes to swing that chair[br]I'll tell you that.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: How about yourself?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: Me?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: Let's punch every one.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: My favorite thing is cursing at[br]people who cut me off.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: Absolutely!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: Right?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: Yeah.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: So, lets-what's a positive thing[br]that y'all like to do in your spare time.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: How long is this session?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: It is going to last an hour.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: I'm hungry!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: I understand-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 2: I don't want to be here.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: I totally agree.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: You can go have lunch, you can[br]do your business, whatever you need to do.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: I just think it's very dumb my[br]mother sent me here, I don't have to be here!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Why do you-why do you scream?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Why are you frustrated?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: Because I'm really mad, I don't[br]want to be here!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: You think that's the right way[br]to-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: I'm expressing myself

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I like screaming.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm expressing how I feel.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Okay.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Like I was mentioning, there-there's a[br]lot of different ways y'all can take out

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
your frustration so you don't necessarily[br]have to scream.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You don't have to punch things.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You can, like I said, work out, paint, I[br]don't know, go walk your dog.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Find-find something that you like.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And go do that instead of being angry,[br]instead of finding frustrating feelings

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that will then get you back.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Do you guys want to share what causes[br]this anger.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: No.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: Dumb people.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: My husband.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: What does your husband do?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: He thinks I'm his slave.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
He wants me to clean up after him and[br]it makes me so mad.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: See, in cases like that, you [br]can just, have you tried talking to him?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: I did, yeah, h-he keeps doing[br]the same thing.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I told him already stop leaving his shoes[br]on the floor, and he just, just doesn't get it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Maybe you can just, let it go.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: Trust me I've tried it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: You can, just don't let it[br]bother you, do-pretend it's not there.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And then you do, continue on your day, do [br]whatever you have to do.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
How about yourself.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: What about me?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: What's your anger issue?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: Dumbass drivers cut me off,[br]everywhere, I have some where I need

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to be, and they cut me off?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Of course I'm going to chase you down.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You don't do that to me.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: That's not- that's not practicing[br]safe driving, you need to follow the speed limit.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
If they're going fast and they're getting [br]off, let that be it, let them-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: How am I supposed to practice safe[br]driving if they're cutting me off?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
They're not practicing safe driving.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Ignore, ignore the world, like[br]you continue being safe, and, let the-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
don't, don't get frustrated, if they want[br]to go crash, let 'em crash.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: Let me cut you off, let's see [br]how you-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: No, let me end it there, no.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What you're going to do is, you're[br]going to count to 20, and, cool off.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
If you're still upset after you count to[br]20, then count to 100.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
If, you're at 100, you're still mad,[br]then take a count.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So, okay, um, let's see what else.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Um, so now, it is getting close to ending[br]the session, it has been a great session today.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Do you all agree?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: No.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: No.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Okay, so I can see you[br]all continue to get upset so what

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm going to do is give you all and[br]assignment.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Um, it's going to-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: Is this like school?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: No, t-this is to help you out[br]of, uh, it's not like school.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And, this is for your personal.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Okay, so I'm going to give y'all this-[br]or, can you just pass it down please?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Um, everybody take one.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Thank you.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Okay so, what y'all are going to do[br]is every time from now on you walk

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
out this door, you're going to write [br]everything that upsets you.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So, when I see y'all next time at the[br]next session, we will go over this, okay?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Does this sound like a, uh, good plan?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: I have no choice.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 1: It's whatever.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 2: Can I go?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Man 2: I'm out.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Counselor: Okay, so y'all are dismissed[br]see you-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Woman 1: Bye.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And your office is fucking dirty.
