How do you deal with anger?

[Hallow'sEve]

bottle it up

 

[Polyg0n]

I very rarely get really angry. When I do I usually just put on my headphones and listen to something heavy on a very high volume and ignore rest of the world.

When I get angry, I play video games or go on the internet. Pretty soon I forget whatever made me angry. I also go running about four times a week.

I push it deep down into my psyce untill it turns into a mental condition or a peptic ulcer.

At the moment its hash and GTA IV...
Spend 2 hours yesterday just watching the tv ingame while smoking joints... You cant really be angy while doing that...

Normally I lash out and lay waste to stuff. I usually end up hurting myself because of it. There isn't any other way I know to deal with it.

 

[Sarah Kerrigan]

I play shooters and scream at 9 your old boys.

It really helps.

Blast thrash metal and try not to beat the hell out of my brother (since he is most likely the reason that i'm in rage mode.)

 

[Thundero13]

I cry a lot and think about suicide, but I always end up deciding that I should still live and i'm crying over nothing so i'm fine.

Torrents of creative swear words help as well. A personal favourite of mine is 'thundercunt'. Rolls off the tongue, I think.

I agree, punshing stuff helps, like goalposts when im playing soccer, or walls when im not,

I get incredibly aggressive. I contain it for as long as possible, then usually explode in a punching-screaming mess. Funny, considering I'm a 5 foot tiny blonde female....

I can just calm myself down in most cases. It takes a lot for me to get truly angry. If that doesn't work, punching walls does. I tend to be the oddball in my family, my parents and sister are all pretty emotional people and get angry pretty easily. I'm more of a calculating person, I almost always think things through before actually doing them.

Since I only seem to get angry at games, I just wallop the arm of the sofa. Because it's all the sofa's fault I suck at the game.
Screw you sofa, providing comfort and making me suck at games.

If it's something else, I usually just wait until nobody's around and pull some kind of angry face.

Spoiler: Something like this

That, combined with the actions for shouting I do but without actually shouting (wavy arms of frustration, for example), must look really, really weird. But it seems to calm me down. For some reason...

Usually I try to seeth it out, leave me alone for a few days and my anger will dissipate. The problem is with school and work I don't have much alone time. Then I do this:

Beware the fury of a 5 foot blonde!

Dance. Seriously. I have no idea how or why it works, but it just does. Maybe it gets all my anger out through physical movement without hitting anything (Not on purpose, anyway)

 

[babinro]

I can't remember ever being angry...

I'm a realist at heart and as such often understand when bad things happen around me. So if its impossible to actually feel angry, I must bottle up whatever anger I feel.

 

[jaketheripper]

masturbate. furiously. no, jk, i usually pick up may guitar and play some mudvayne. mmmm mudvayne..... :3

 

[kaveradeo]

Bottle it all up.

This. Over and over.
