    I'm a furniture kicker. I feel it coming on me like a wave and the nearest thing gets it. 3 good skelps and the anger is gone. I'd never hurt another living thing when I'm like that, I'm glad to say (obviously that doesn't include cats)

    Anger.

    I actually don't get angry too often. Usually I remind myself that the object of my potential anger wouldn't last a heart beat if I decide its time for retribution.

    My victim would then have me charged with assault, when they eventually come out of their coma. Then I'd lose my job, and everything that entails.

    And that folks, is the Gods honest reason I keep my anger under control.

    I work it off by doing something physical like diy ,gardening , housework with some music in the background but I dont go looking for reasons to be angry .Some people will over react to something trivial and blow it all out of proportion .They are toxic .

    I use this technique which was taught to me by a Zen Master.




    Just sit back, relax, feel the tension leave your body ... picture yourself near a stream.

    Birds are chirping in the crisp, cool mountain air.

    Butterflies waft in the breeze.

    Leaves rustle.

    Nothing can bother you here.

    Nobody knows this secret place.

    You are in complete seclusion from that place called 'the world'.

    The soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a cascade of serenity.

    The water is crystal clear.

    You can easily make out the face of the person whose head you are holding under the water.


    There now........ doesn't that make you feel better?

    Either by lashing out at a football or going ape shít on a punch bag.

    I shoot things, bought a rifle a few years ago and even target shooting is an excellent stress reliever.

    Driving range is also a good one, punching a pebbledash wall not so good.

    Apparantly it's less "healthy" to let it out than to keep it in. That is, people who release their anger more, are more likely to be more angry. Pseudo-scientific studies have 'proved' it. This information comes from an episode of "pen and teller's something or other" I saw last night, so perhaps it's not so reliable. But then neither are many of the findings of psychologists :)
    No, people will feel angry no matter what, whether they keep it in or what. Keeping it in isj ust more frustrating. Stupid psychologists.

    A game of Astro football. Kick the ball as hard as ye can a few times, and kick a few shins. A few lunging tackles, no malicious intent obviously. Aaaaah, thats better.

    I sometimes have to lie down in bed for 30 mins to 'cool off'. My mind feels mangled and tangled and a lie down de-tangled my brain bits.


    Kev.
    (In lovely form today, its sunny and I'm off work)
