    I've been told that I need counselling for my angry outbursts but I'm too embarrassed to speak to a Counselor. Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    If someone closer to you than strangers on the internet has told you that you need counselling for your anger issues, then you've already got the best advice you need and you'd want to get over your embarrassment if you want to maintain those relationships.

    Counsellors are there because they want to help you, they're not there to judge you in a negative light as they understand that it wasn't easy for you to get over your fears and seek help.

    Think of it like going to the dentist, nobody likes the dentist drill, but it's for your own benefit so you can maintain a set of healthy choppers. Same thing with counselling - everyone gets embarrassed about going to a therapist because they're worried about being judged. The best thing you can do is be honest with yourself, and be honest with your counsellor no matter how much you're embarrassed by your behaviour. It's for your own benefit so you can develop a healthy mental attitude and learn to cope without getting angry when things aren't working out for you.
