What do you guys do when you are angry?

I got into a fight with a guy that called me immature because I like The Hunger Games, Superheros and modern Fairy Tales. I found myself in my anger eating a poptart, and yes I logged it. After praying to God about a few moments and I ate one, I tossed the other away.

    Are you my sister????

    My younger sister that is on this site and her fiance (they are getting married in April) both like all of those things.

    I like some of the Super heroes and I loved the movie The Hunger Games.

    People need to get a grip on themselves with the judgement. We are allowed like whatever we want.

    You logged what you ate, and calmed down........Brush your shoulder off and move on.

    Don't go with food. I find putting my headphones on, cranking the tunes, and going for a walk a great refresher. I just focus on the walking and music. I come back and feel much better. find your self a non-food way to deal with issues.

    I grab my iPod and go for a walk. That always seems to help, and keeps me away from food. I am a stress eater, so when I get angry I really crave something to eat. A quick ten minute walk, listening to my favorite music is a great help. Even when I get frustrated at work, sneaking out for a five minute walk helps me refocus.
    I love the Hunger Games, Harry Potter and Superheros, when people make fun of it, I just try to brush it off. They don't know what they are missing out on :)

    Go for a walk or run. You may HATE it at first - but after a few mins you'll thank yourself.

    Either starve or binge on sweets depending on the source of the anger and the mind-mode I am in....

    In the past I would have reached for crisps or chocolate and had a cry.

    Now I just cry. x

    I do heavy cleaning when I'm angry. If my husband and I have a disagreement about something, it results in sparkling kitchen or bathroom. LOL.

    I say "wow, your life must be really boring without any imagination or fantasy," and then I just return to being awesome and not giving a damn about their feelings.

    If someone really pisses me off though, I save the anger for gym fuel. I imagine their faces on bike pedals, punching bags, treadmill bands, etc. Surprisingly therapeutic.

    I have in the past beat the **** out of any guy who pissed me off. And a few times I got my *kitten* kicked too. Now I just say **** it. Life is to short to give a **** what others think!

    you can look up anger management techniques

    honestly, different things work for different people

    i hate breathing techniques, but recently i discovered one where as you take a deep inhale you focus on the word "LET" and on the exhale "GO", i do it a few times and am usually clearheaded enough by the end of it

    This is going to sound silly, but a long time ago I realized that when I am getting angry with my kids I just start singing about it. It calms me down. It causes everyone to stop and listen. And we all start laughing. Then, I have their attention and things start to go smoothly after that.
