what do you do when you get mad

[kapeh12]

I don't get angry very often, but when I do I typically do some kind of rigorous exercise, like popping in a TaeBo tape.

learning how to pray, but also walk, it takes some of the anger, and then praying while walking is great, because by the time you get home, you will be calmed down,and you can talk to God.

It depends on what I am mad at. If it's another person that I know or I can talk to, and they have mistreated me in some way, I wont stand for that! I'll be verbally ( and sometimes loudly) confrontational if I think my anger is justified.

There are other emotions similar to anger such as frustration, or simply being annoyed or irritated. Life is so full of frustrations, annoyances and irritations. Life is so short, sometimes if there is no detriment to yourself, it makes more sense to just let the minor stuff go.

I usually work or workout

In my case I tend to plug in my earphones and listen to some explosive music. Not the best idea but it's quite passive and does no harm to others.

Sit and relax

Depends on where and what I get mad about.  Most of the time I just walk away and off some place to meditate but very seldom will i instantly get mad right back at someone and let them have it.

I use to shut down now I calmly get everything off my chest then redirect my focus.... or at least try to lol

[emily01]

Hm, well... It's probably not a good idea to be in my path when I'm mad..

[davidh121]

I usually take a nice walk outside to cool off or throw a tantrum somewhere quiet. I use to also play the video game Grand Theft Auto and run people over.

I usually exercise or get a short work out when I'm angry.  Mostly it's hitting the heavy bag or a sledge hammer and tire.
