If you're like me and get pissed on occasion (or more often than not as is the case lately), I'm sure you'd like to find ways to let out some aggression without a) killing someone (I mean we probably do want to given the situation at hand but really...we can't...no, we can't...seriously) or b) killing ourselves (and by this I mean like hurting yourself so badly in the process of letting out this aggression that you don't recover...not like really killing yourself) so I figured I'd explore the topic and see if I could find ways new ways to help me get the anger out.
So far today I have tried...
1) grocery shopping...doesn't help when the store is crowded therefore making you more upset. That and you forget things...which I did, and subsequently made me angrier.
2) washing dishes...kind of okay until the soap or water splashes up...not pleasant and now I'm wet.
3) peeling an orange...surprisingly effective. I channeled all my energy at this and although it didn't work out perfectly, did make me feel better.
Still left to try...
1) writing in my journal
2) working out
3) trying to relax
Now I wanna know....how do you deal with your anger? Maybe we can help each other out :)
I usually cry and write it out on my blog. Or I complain to Brian. I also tend to take it out on my dog unfortunately, not violence, but definate yelling. It was so much easier when I taught, I could take it out on my bad classes lol.
