Babies tend to suck their thumbs when they are upset. But I think that wouldn't be appropriate for adults. So we sort of find ways to calm ourselves when our temper is getting the best of us.
My friends would know that I'm not pleased or angry when my cheeks twitch while talking. I could seem calm on the outside but my cheeks show what I'm really feeling.
Do your eyebrows go up? Or someone would know because you would be wringing their necks? :)

hello abitcurious,
well people around me can easily know when i am angry...coz i become so quiet all of a sudden & i avoid looking on the person who upsets me... hehe\sometimes my brows do raise and my eyes becomes wider! haha and i have this sharp look in my eyes...
but definitely i can control my anger by pausing a while & take a deep breath & sigh!
haha but of course there are times that i really feel bad that i act so fast without thinking...and i usually regret my acts at those moment...

It's really hard for me talk when I'm upset. But I've been know to walk out from a conversation I can't control myself anymore. I'd rather they be angry with me for walking out. I might lose control and I'd hate for them to listen to me rant and be just mean.

well i guess its better to walk out sometimes than doing some other things that we might regret in the future.
when we are angry, i think space is important & some cooling moments...so that we can think as well.
with me, sometimes i also hate it when i am angry and i can't do anything. sometimes i just find my self crying out of too much anger!

I also know that when I'm angry I tend to be subjective and say things that I don't really mean just because i want to lash out. So I'd rather walk out.

Me and the people who know me well know that I am angry when my face turns red and I suddenly became quiet and same as the previous responder, I would avoid looking at the person i am angry with. Oftentimes i would go away from the situation by finding a well ventilated place to cool myself. Sometimes i would also report to eating or just cry all by myself on rare occasions i am really really angry. Depends on how much i am angry i guess. The last option would be to confront the person if i just cannot take it:) but it has not happened on me yet because i rarely have enemies. Thank God.:-)

I have a few friends I can be comfortable with when I'm angry. Our friendship has grown so much that we know each other too well to mind. We can rave and rant and we'd still be friends after. Though it was tough getting there. It took a lot of tears and laughter :)
