Hi, sonukuldeep. I think I'm not short-tempered. When I'm extremely angry, I'll take a deep breath, just let it go and don't care too much about it. In my opinion, if you're really angry, it's a best way to take a breath to make yourself soothed. Don't always think about it. Just let it go and try to do other things to distract your attentions. Just my own opinion. Hope it will be helpful. Wish you happy every day! :)

yes, it is better to keep our anger under the reins. that deep breathing thing is very effective. i take a glass of tapwater along with it. it cools me down much faster.

I usally do the same thing. i walk off before I say the wrong thing. I think your doing about the right thing. It's better to walk off and not start trouble then to make things worser then what they already are.

Certain people make me lose my temper easily and unfortunately I happen to live with one of those people, he can press my buttons and easily trigger my very short fuse. Normally I am patient, calm and docile and very placid, not when he's around! I go to the gym five times a week so I can burn my anger of and take it out on the punch bag, treadmill or weights!

you can be sure that i will keep to myself first while i am still fuming mad. so i get out from the presence of people. when i am not so angry anymore i mingle with people once again. i find this to be a very good and effective formula. although i have heartaches and hurts, i have never had big quarrels with anyone. of course, i had been through a lot of quarrels in my life, but never the abusive ones. just a few exchange of words for clarificatory matters.

As for me , I lose my temper only when I am being put to a situation whereby I am innocent of the allegation leveled against me .
