How do you control your anger?

feeling angry is natural...there can be mild anger, moderate anger or strong anger...it really depends on the person how he/she will control his/her anger...but my advice to you is never keep your anger to yourself...you can always share your feelings to your reliable and good friends...they may know how to mollify you since they know you better...another way to control your anger is to divert your attention. think of something else or do something that will keep your attention away from the object of your anger...you can play your favorite sport, boxing for instance, it will help to get that anger away from your body...eat your favorite food...mmmm...just try different things...you know yourself well enough to know what you like the most...just a reminder, don't vent it out on someone else by way of punching, slapping, pinching, or worse throwing things at him...it hurts...try it on yourself...it hurts, isn't it? P.S. feeling of anger makes you look old...so be smart on controlling it...

Believe it or not I never get angry !!!! I realized a long time ago that it does nothing to get angry. I find ways to make the best of the situation at hand. I try to think of a time when i was excited or happy. Or turn and walk away. Oh yeah it is always good to have a friend to talk about things to in any situation. I sometimes go to the Golf driving range and buy a large bucket of balls and start driving them as far as i can, and put a face on each ball you hit. You'll find your much happier when your wacking those balls out there and your anger is gone.

In my country India, we practice yoga to be calm in tough times, and tell me tell you, it really works. Try meditating and laughing a lot. Whenever you get angry, try laughing, and laugh your anger away. It is a very useful way. Surf yoga sites and learn from them if you cannot join classes.

Well, generally it takes alot to get me angry. Small flames I can push aside by distancing myself from the situation, so that the emotions mean nothing. If I'm truly angry I can't really stop it. Not that it matters, 'cause I seem to get calmer when I'm angry, if that makes any sense..the adrenaline's pumping and a insane though logical -- not necessarily rational person is driving -- in a matter of speaking lol. I think when someone gets angry they shouldn't focus or get lost in the feeling -- they should take a step back from the situation in their mind and think. Thinking is usually the best remedy.

When you cant control yuor emotions than you are addicted to them. Anger is a habit (almost addiction) that I have tried to control myself. Its not just bad for our relationships but bad for us too. I suffer from borderline high blood pressure and everytime its up its because I am angry or bothered. Long walks are the quickest relief or even short ones to clear your mind. Counting to 10 doesnt always work. But always remember those that anger us control us and when someone gets you mad they are really getting the best of you.

i am a very patient person but after my pregnancy, my life turned upside down. I get angry every time even on little things that dont go my way. Also because of past hurts, it didnt help either, it made me so angry that i sometimes physically hurt the other. I am now learning how to deal with this by not dealing with it at all. i just walk out. Remove yourself from the place where it happened. Remove yourself from the person you are mad at. The person that made you like this will understand why u walked out on him/her. what he wouldnt understand is when you attack him either verbally or physically even if you say sorry afterwards. it will kill your relationship with your family and friends. It will. Then when you are ready to talk to them rationally, thats the only time you will allow yourself to approach them and tell them that they hurt you and its not ok. I know you can stop this. Its all in the state of mind.

I focus on other things, It keeps me from getting excessively angry, and I can usually talk to myself down from there.
