      ab: The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the lived experiences of urban Thai women in managing stress and anger during middle age. Utilizing Heideggerian phenomenology and feminist theory, data were gathered through interview on middle-aged, urban, Thai women regarding how they managed stress and anger. Data were analyzed using Benner's method for content analysis. The findings revealed the women experienced stress and anger in response to the pressures they encountered during everyday life. The process of their st,ess and anger management included five themes: keeping silent; forgiving; seeking spirituality; changing one's thinking process; and, shifting interest. The stress and anger the women experienced appeared to contribute to their health problems. However, the manner in which they used the five stages of the identified stress and anger management process appeared to promote their health and happiness. These findings could prove helpful to nurses as they work with middle-aged urban Thai women who are dealing with their daily stress and anger issues.
