What do you guys do when you're angry?

[Deleted]

Shouting (only when really angry). Counting to 10.
And punching random stuff (walls, tree's, random stuff that is in my way). I rarelly punch humans (only out of self defence).

[Sevyvia]

I either bottle it up or savagely beat a pillow. Usually helps.

Used to hop on my motorcycle and drive around for a while.
Also there are some songs that can reliably clear my mind.

[Sloshman]

You snap mice!? Do they squeak in protest before you commit the horrible act??

Sometimes, most of the time I get their neck though. Lol.

I throw stuff.

I bet your fits are something to behold.

I can throw things! Don't underestimate me!

I immediately had to think of this

[anveena]

I usually just swear.

[Dezerte]

Rarely angry.

The only thing that generally can make me angry is games, and then I just forget about it and go do something else. Oh, I swear too.

[Adjusting]

I reason with myself. And after I feel stupid for getting mad. Makes for a great laugh!

[Toffie]

Play Battlefield 3 and scream when things don't go my way, I guess that makes me angrier... Youtube - fail videos/ellen..

[Pull My Finger]

I used to punch through doors. Now, I try to breathe deeply and calm down, while walking deep furrows into the floor, and maybe illustrate the situation to my girlfriend, embellished by a myriad of creative curses, obscenities and maledictions. I usually end up being miserable and in a shit mood for the rest of the day. I'm not very good in dealing with anger.

I don't get angry over pointless and stupid shit anymore, though. Usually serious stuff and people's stupidity with which they sabotage my life - be it officials, colleagues or whatever other idiots may be out there.

Don't really have much of a temper to lose. What's the point of getting mad at something you likely have no control over anyway? One day I was having a particularly unpleasant day, and later, during our DS raid, another priest Lifegripped me while I was eating buff food, RIGHT before I got my buff, and RIGHT before combat started (Heroic ship). Needless to say, I was slightly aggravated, and let a couple of "fucks" slip by in vent. But since I'm rarely ever angry, my guild thought I was pissed the hell off, and they were all like "woah!"

However, if nothing's going right that day, sometimes walking along the streets in Grand Theft Auto IV and causing as much havoc as possible is pretty good therapy.

I didn't say that. I just said it'd be something fun to behold as long as I'm not the target!

•) Going outside for a long walk helps. Gets you away from the problem

•) Taking a deep breath and shutting your thoughts off for around 1 - 3 minutes helps. There's no such thing as "anger"... just your thoughts. You need to take back control, to take you back to "zero-balance". Turning off ALL thoughts for a minute or three can REALLY help with that.

•) Watching an episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (or any non-cynical comedy). It helps to get you out of the world you're currently letting yourself get trapped in, and into a much sillier happy world... particularly watch one episode that might be related to why you're angry. :P

•) Go take a nap. I can't tell you how many times I've gone to sleep angry about something, to waken to laugh about it the next day at how silly it was.

•) Complete a long-delayed task, or try something new. Anger = you feel you have no control. Doing things gives you identity and control.

•) All of the above have a key element - getting away from what's making you angry and from THINKING about what's making you angry, and putting you back into control of your world. That's the key...

[Togarox]

I throw on loud music and lose myself in video games. A couple hours go by and I completely forget what I was mad about.

[Elegiac]

Eat. It's a delicious and awful cycle.

And no, I'm not a fatty -.-

This is actually a pretty good advice, there's truth to this.

[Magruun]

Throw my pillow at the wall
