How do you release your anger?

I find it helps if I write down my frustration.

I go for a drive in the country and scream really loud 😒

SuperSecretSquirrel · 26-30, F

@LilPrincess that sounds really nice, actually

LilPrincess · 46-50, F

@SuperSecretSquirrel its been helpful the last few months

Orca4950 · 70-79, M

@LilPrincess thats my remedy. Get in car, start driving and yelling🥵

tpuk83 · 41-45, M

I was told to write letters to the people that made me angry and then set fire to them.

I've done that now but don't know what to do with the letters

LordShadowfire · 46-50, M

I release energy and tension, not anger, every Tuesday when I do Kali sparring.

Daily workouts in the morning are a good anger preventative too.

Fullmetal · 46-50, M

@Adogslife add in a cold plunge!!

Adogslife · 61-69, M

@Fullmetal opening the pool for the season tomorrow 👍🏻. it’s an awesome end to a workout.

Fullmetal · 46-50, M

@Adogslife some carenza, either sinawalli or espota y daga!!

You can't avoid ever being angry, but here's something to think about. Boone makes us angry, we choose how we respond or react. In short, everything we do is by choice, no one makes us do anything.

I go outside and shatter plates into the burn barrel.

@SuperSecretSquirrel It’s a big steel drum you shoot holes in the bottom of and burn stuff in.

WatchThis · 41-45, M

@Pinkstarburst gets so hot, it’ll burn anything

Pinkstarburst · 51-55, F

@WatchThis Yep

matthewjames · 18-21, M

I throw stuff sometimes like if I get mad at something that isnt working I will throw it but not at nobody just at wall maybe

cherokeepatti · 61-69, F

I used to take a hatchet and hack away at the tree stump in the backyard till I gave out. It’s finally gone.

SuperSecretSquirrel · 26-30, F

@cherokeepatti time to find a new tree stump, huh?

Crazywaterspring · 61-69, M

Yardwork. Since I've retired my anger and stress levels have gone down.

QCDog2659 · 61-69, M

I can no longer permit myself to be angry.

cherokeepatti · 61-69, F

@QCDog2659 yeah about the same way, I had one adrenal gland removed and the other one has to do the job of both now. Better to chill out and not let things get under my skin.

oldercanuck1 · 70-79, M

i walk the empty beaches at night ,,,,

Pfuzylogic · M

Sublimate!
I lift and make my arms swell. 😜

JoyfulSilence · 46-50, M

I commence primary ignition

nedkelly · 61-69, M

Listening to music

shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M

@nedkelly Music does soothe the soul doesn't it.

thepreposterouspanda · 36-40, M

Angry music and a lot of working out these days. I need to get back into writing, I have so much music that's just begging for lyrics and I haven't even attempted to write them. 😮‍💨 #yaydepression

SuperSecretSquirrel · 26-30, F

@thepreposterouspanda you must be talented then

thepreposterouspanda · 36-40, M

@SuperSecretSquirrel A bit anyway! I'm a self-taught guitarist who's been playing for about 21 years at this point, give or take a few years lost to chronic illness. :)

caPnAhab · 26-30, M

I just listen to music. Doesn't even have to be angry music, just any thing

@caPnAhab It's a good one for when I get frustrated with people who know everything.

caPnAhab · 26-30, M

@LordShadowfire I know a song or two made for knowitalls

Splitting firewood seems to be quite effective; however being able to do so is somewhat weather dependent.

blackarcher256 · 61-69, M

I walk…I walk until I’m to tired to be angry anymore.

LordShadowfire · 46-50, M

@blackarcher256 I did that once. My dad was talking to a potential business partner about a real estate deal, and she said something about parolees that I found terribly offensive. I went for a walk around the block, then asked myself if I still wanted to hurt her. I repeated this process until I just wanted to sit down and didn't care who had said what.

I suppose I should do that more often.

zeggle · 61-69, M

Feelings and emotions are weird. It's stranger than strange.

JRVanguard · 26-30, M

I pace
It’s how I express my emotions best

WildBill25 · 26-30, M

Bury it 50,000 miles beneath my brain

Nebula · 41-45, F

I really don't get angry a lot

metaldog

DreamyCrush · F

Vent to a friend

Ferric67 · M

I exercise and that helps a lot
I sleep well, and that keeps me in a good mood
I eat clean and it keeps my body healthy
My social interactions help keep my emotions in check too

good luck squirrel

in10RjFox · M

Oh yes. I have been manifesting my anger as document and store them as manuscript or documents to go through often. Few of them I make as Books and recently launched one of them in Kindle, written with help of AI.

Spoiledbrat · F

I yell.

Cigarguy101 · 41-45, M

When I get angry my tourettes gets worse
I have loud vocal outbursts and facial tics

Listening to music and going for a walk. Plus a lot of swears

shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M

CorvusBlackthorne · 100+, M

Someone suggested that I should write angry letters to the people with whom I am upset, and then set them on fire.

But then what do I do with the letters?

SamInAZ · 41-45, M

@CorvusBlackthorne this...this right here... Is GOOD. Made me chuckle.

empanadas · 31-35, M
