You should definetly look into those anger issues
Not quit gaming entirely, but perhaps avoid competitive games for at least a while

Raging because of a hobby is not any kind of anger issue. Hobbies cause emotions, they cause remembrance and calmness as well as anger and frustration. And the more you enjoy a hobby the more you get frustrated.
That has absolutely nothing to do with anger issues. Or are you one of these people who think a husband who's wife cheated also has anger issues when he gets emotional? Because that is also just emotions.

Spoken like someone that also broke their monitor from raging.

No, like someone who's gone to therapy and learned that having emotions doesn't mean that there is something wrong.

Having emotions is fine, raging out is not.

Okay, I see again, there are people on Reddit who have absolutely no idea what they are talking about OR can read context.

Mate if you went to therapy and still believe breaking inanimate objects of value is ok, you need to go back. Soon.

Have you been to therapy? Or are you a therapist?

Yes. And no.

Then ask your therapist what's the difference between throwing a fit ONCE and throwing a fit EVERYTIME. Your therapist will most likely be better suited to explain you the difference. Because I'm not patient enough to do that.

Right? Last time I was painting I got so mad I stabbed my neighbors with a paintbrush. I just love painting so much.

Getting angry because of your hobby is fine
Getting angry to the point of throwing and breaking things is not fine
Getting angry because of your spouse cheating is fine
Murdering them because of it is not
Theres more than just angry or calm, theres a whole spectrum there

Throwing one controller is fine.
Throwing every controller isn't fine.
Read the text and look if OP said they throw every single controller.
AnInsaneMoose t1_iyc3z0v wrote
Throwing any controller is not fine
Your hobby should never make you angry enough to damage anything

I agree up to a point, you can swear and get mad BRIEFLY in the heat of the moment, but violent and destructive outbursts are never a good sign. If you have these tendencies you should either resolve them or avoid doing things that can trigger them.
BrilliantMango3291 t1_iyc295s wrote
OP seems to regret it, even asks if they should stop gaming. It also seems it's the first time throwing anything at all. That is by no way a sign of anger issues or something you need to be scared of.

Obviously you’re sometimes gonna get mad, however it does show a glaring problem when it results in damaging something other than your ego for a few minutes. When do you see someone without anger issues throwing controllers and mouses at screens?

I see people like that, I just take a look in the mirror.
