There should be some outlet for everyone's anger..I have seen few people banging the door when they are angry. Few throw objects at hand and few others shout.There are few who hurt others.How about you? How do you express your anger? Do you hurt others?

Expressing anger sometimes reduces your anger and sometimes makes it worse. When expressed appropriately, anger can be healthy.Usually I just walk away and try to stay alone for a while.Cheers..

Staying alone for sometime is a best solution. It also helps us to visually replay the situation and come to a conclusion.

I think I start yelling when I am first reacting, then I'll throw something or slam the door. I've not hurt anyone since I grew up. And I get angry less and less as I age, it's just not worth the energy output.

Yes, as we grow older, we become more matured..Life teaches us more lessons too.

Ahhh! I love that angry baby picture...scared me when I first saw it on YouTube. I hit a wall sometimes, but usually I just sit there and chill out for a bit. Can't stay mad forever... I'll go for a drive, or take a walk, or go exercise at the gym for a while...because it's hard to stay mad when you're tired out after an hour of cardio!

You have good outlets that could reduce your anger..I accept..One can never still be mad after working out..

I'm one of those people that cry when they get angry. Since it doesn't happen that often, I usually just hold it in check until I can get in the shower so that I can cry without scaring the kids. If there is a good reason for me to be angry I'll wait until I've cried it out and then I can calmly discuss the matter with my husband. He's really good at making me feel better. He seems gifted at putting things in perspective.

You are really so lucky to have such a partner. One of my friends also cries when she is angry..But it would be like yelling..I think you behave very calmly when you are angry.

I am very cool person. Generally I do not get angry with any body. If ever I am forced, I would like to discuss and pacify others and explain in detail and even if the others are not satisfied, then my way is to slip out and keep busy in other affairs and in the mean time get cool and do not behave differently.

That is amazing. You are really so cool. It would be very nice if I get the same qualities.I also move away from the place. But it would take quite a long time for me to come out of the mood.
