Walk away and sort it alone. If I am already having an anger outburst, it sorts itself out.

The crying doesn't happen while being triggered. That's like hours later.

It's either an anger outburst which is complete manic rage which is the fight response and can manifesting in breaking things, or flight and manifests in leaving and isolating.
Get very angry and aggressive

I try to think of happy and positive things.

Try to find something to ground you

Try as much as possible to appear unaffected. Therefore I either change the topic or shut up and distance myself because the voice betrays first. If someone pokes further into the nest I lash out suddenly and aggressively with no prior warning.

My shields instantly go up, and so does my voice. My subconscious has decided that the best defense is a good offense.
