Talk:Rageaholic

"This is usually a pathetic act, and for many rageaholics, the last stop before pure insanity." This is a totally weird thing to say... especially on wikipedia... and especially without references... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.244.14.204 (talk) 14:55, 10 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

-- Good Start --

This is a good start, obviously derived from anger management counseling. It does need better sourcing, preferably from established psychology materials. The section called "rageaholics can be dangerous" needs to be rephrased as, "According to The Anger Management Center" or "According to a study by Dr. Smith of NIMH," with the rest in quotes. 3Tigers (talk) 18:55, 20 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

All of the listed advice is from one guy with a website. Since when is Wikipedia his personal infomercial? Lothar76 (talk) 04:42, 23 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Removal or redirecting of this article

edit

I'm not going to request the removal of this article, because it is a word that is sometimes used in speech and the original writer tried to research his references with what little there is to back it up. But, you can similarly say "driveaholic, coffeaholic, sleepaholic", etc. with a similar effect. The word exists because of its relation to "alchoholic". I would only say "angeraholic" if I was trying to be humorous. If anything, I suggest redirecting this article as a subcategory under anger management.Editfromwithout (talk) 20:51, 5 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
