I WISH I Had a Punch Bag... To take All my Anger on When People just Piss me Off.... Like Now...................... How Do you Deal with your Anger?????????
I just....BREATHE very slowly....and tell myself it will get better.... and that there are BIGGER troubles in the world than whatever petty little things are bugging me...then whatever has me on edge suddenly seems so silly......
Zen Meditation helps a bit for me. Studys have been done that suggest that working out anger and or frustration only serves to amplify the emotional state so the cathartic effect of hitting a punch bag or roaring out loud just make you more keyed up. running may be a good medium between the punching and meditating for you. I think that eventually everyone's responsible for their own emotional state and when you get to that point you most of the time just decide not to be angry. if that make any sense.
I limit what I allow in to disturb a good mood. Are the people pissing you off worth ruining your frame of mind over? Think about it.
I make bread. 10 minutes of kneading/kicking the shit out of a giant stress ball that you eventually get to eat. How can you go wrong?
Believe it or not going off on a punching bag doesnt release aggression, its actually likely to make you more aggressive. It primes the aggression areas in your brain. Emotion follows reaction
I shop...but I don't suggest that. I used to do yoga but we don't have a yoga place here and our new cable has a million channels, but not the yoga channel ):
I punch my punching bag when I'm angry... Then I get tired and my knuckles start to hurt... Then I go to bed and sleep it off... By morning, I'd usually forgotten or lost interest in why I was upset anyway.
i do feel for you. i know exactly how you feel. just take a nap, take a bath, wash it all off. we have the same sorta temper, you and i. you just have to wash it off. like water off a duck's back. doesn't always work, but it does often enough.
I throw pillows In extreme cases i hit them, but only once or twice. I never get that angry Its soft and not USUALLY dangerous, although doing it on a sugar low has proved risky. When you miss the pillow and get the wall instead Otherwise, i snap a string of irritable words at whoever pissed me off, usually meaningless ones, then apologise, maybe bite my nails or play with my hands a little, and thats that Anything more just aint worth it
I Allowed Technology to get the better of me... And Now...I Accept Defeat... Until Tomorrow... Felt Like an Idiot Stomping Around the House...Ahahahaha!
