What to do when you're angry

[holleyberry]

What was this thread about again?
Oh Yeah, When I'm angry I clean my house....

[gldkelly]

When I finally get off this computer, then I clean my house!

I try & I mean I really try to not get on this thing until at least I accomplish 1 really good deed for the day! Clean Installer is usually it! Tina, know she is making me mind my downloads!
It's working! Don't knock it till you try it! Thx Tina! ( the smiley is from the bottom of my pointer finger )

I walk the dog or eat tons of things when I'm angry. usually when I walk my dog,I run reallly really really really fast. After that run,my dog usually drops dead on my bed and sleep for the rest of the night. I do to,but i have to eat after the walk...anyway,i have added these all to my list! woo!

[Tina ☺]

Sometimes when I'm REALLY angry.... I cry.

[§Haily§]

ME TOO!! Sometimes my sisters get on my nervs so much and when i can't do anything about it, i cry. that's when they laugh at me.*sigh* sisters...

[Nicole]

When I'm mad usually I just sit to myself and be all angry, not doing anything. Sometimes I yell TO my cat about what I'm mad about and she just sits there with her ears all funny.

Usually I tend to take it out on others when they piss me off though... Not a good thing.

Wait till you have kids nicole. Sometimes when i'm upset i yell at my babies for no reason. i usually feel WORSE after that

Oh gosh yes. Kids know how to press your buttons.

;)I wish I had A BATH! that I could mellow out in, but there is no room in my bathroom to swing a cat(it would, go splat!)I can stand in that room & touch each wall!*sigh!*I just love lying in a bath reading a book, & yes! I have dried a few books in my time! I have always taken my anger out on myself,when I was younger I use to cut myself! but after loads of counseling I chanel my anger into cleaning! I used to put music on & dance, but can't do that anymore as it hurts to dance! :'(I love dancing it was my life!
You also said hug your boyfriend!No boyfriend!(I'm not looking,just thought I would get this straight! I have been in love with the same guy, since I was 27! I am now 52!he lives in NZ & is half Polynesian & half Irish!)

[Tina ☺]

Dang Karima, come over to my house next time you're angry. It could use a good cleaning! ;D

Umm,i wouldn't put cut myself there,Karima. But glad you don't do it anymore! So,peoples... thanks for giving me ideas to help my anger myself...and nicole,i also take my anger out on other people resulting in huge problems after that...

[Sarie]

When I'm angry I lock myself in my room and think or talk to a friend. Once I did try cutting, and personally that made it worse. Taking it out on other people is natural, but very mean.

[§Haily§]

I was tempted to cut myself after i saw my ex boyfriend go out with a person that hates me. This new girl friend of his shoves the mistake i did of brakeing up with him in my face just to ware me down. On the outside,i look strong,but on the inside,she had broken me.She had broken my heart and everything that was in it. I never had the heart to cut myself though. My friends were there to confort me in my time of needs and they always were there to make me laugh! And Sarie,i understand about locking yourself up in your room. The days that my ex's girl friend kicks and plays around with my heart until i can't take it anymore are the days where i just lock myself in my room, play some songs that relate to my life,sit there and cry. Just cry and cry and cry until i can't cry anymore! Until i cry myself to sleep. I hate to admit it, but i have said some pretty mean stuff up to her face before. Like REALLY mean stuff. I don't like my heart being played with but what does she do anyway? Plays and screws with it until i have to yell at her like i'm scolding her!!!!!

My life is very dramtic right now,but being a Christan, I'm hopeing that God will guid me through this dramatic point of life for i have once read that if God lead you throught it he'll guid you through it. Man,i hope this "love maze" ends quickly before i explode!

I don't really get angry myself, because I cannot hold a grudge. But when I'm really angry I write poetry about it and that helps

[jillyson]

Poetry is an awesome idea! I used to let anger just eat me alive. Then someone pointed out to me, that I was spending my entire day thinking about this person, and not doing something that would make me smile. She said "Do you think that person is thinking about you? Hell no. They're living their life. You mean nothing to them. Yet there you sit, giving up your entire day to them by dwelling on what happened. Why would you want to give them that kind of power over you? They don't deserve it. They can't ruin your day, unless you let them. You don't want rotten people in your life, and now here's your chance to put them out and keep them out. It's all up to you!" You can't control what others do to you, but you can control how (or if) you'll react to it. Don't let this person take one more smile away from you. You deserve to smile. Go out & find a reason!
