I'm so sorry to hear you're under so much stress, I can understand to some level how you feel but honestly you have to try and figure out a more productive way to deal with your anger and frustration. Try calling a friend or take a shower to give yourself some time to cool down. When I get really angry I start cleaning like a mad person, lol! It's productive cuz things that have been laying around finally get some needed attention. It sounds like maybe when you lose control you become impulsive, if you can find a way to take control of yourself at that moment and calm down so that you can think before you act you will stop hurting yourself. I know it sounds hard to do but you can do it. I used to react very impulsively when I was angry but I have learned to calm myself down before saying things I would later on regret. Try by avoiding triggering situations, if you feel like a certain conversation may lead to a road you won't be able to handle then stop and change the topic. If it's already too late for that then try removing yourself from the situation, go to another room put on the tv, or some music, call a friend or take a shower and just give yourself some time to get back to normal. BBK the change has to come from within, you seem like a strong person and I'm sure you can do this, hurting yourself will not change anything except making it worse. Let me share with you something I read recently... "Your life, with all its ups and downs, has molded you for the greater good. Your life has been exactly what it needed to be. Don’t think you’ve lost time. It took each and every situation you have encountered to bring you to the current moment. And every moment of your life, including this one right now, is a fresh start. If you have the courage to admit when you’re scared, the ability to laugh even as you cry, the nerve to speak up even if your voice is shaking, the confidence to ask for help when you need it, and the wisdom to take it when it’s offered, then you have everything you need to get yourself to a better place." Take care and remember whatever hasn't killed you only makes you stronger :)

I know it's a common one, but for me, when I'm not @ my house, i just close my eyes and count to ten. If I'm at home however, i go take a shower. That really cools me of.Or yell real loud with a pillow at your head. You end up tired and the stress is gone. When i have to make a choice, or an important decision, and I'm stressed , i usually write down what is making me angry and i can think more clearly later. It's normal to be stressed from time to time. it's perfectly understandable to suddenly explode with everyone. If you do that only once in a while , people will understand.. However some people have real issues with stress, and that makes them really hard to deal with.So if you have stress only once in a while no problem. But if it's always, i sugest a shrink or whatever.. it really helps.

When you quiet your body and mind, you will relieve stress. Try meditation. It is free, easy, and doesn't take up too much of your time. If you want some meditation techniques you can ask, but one of the simplest things you can do is sit in a chair with your back straight. Relax your hands. Close you eyes and focus on your breathing. Silently count each time you breathe. Having something to focus on will keep your mind from wandering. Two other really great things I do to relieve stress are practicing Tai Chi Chih and Yoga. You would be soooo suprised how great you feel after practicing! Try these out, they will help you.

Techniques of stress management include

self-understanding (e.g. self-identification as a Type A or as a Type B personality)
self-management (e.g. becoming better-organized)
conflict resolution
positive attitude
self-talk
Autogenic training
breathing
Progressive relaxation
meditation
exercise
diet
rest
Stress balls
therapeutic massage
Some techniques of time management may help a person to control stress. For example:

becoming more organized and reducing the generation of clutter
setting priorities can help reduce anxiety
using a "to do" list of tasks that a person needs to complete can give a person a sense of control and accomplishment
Effective stress management involves learning to set limits and to say "No" to some demands that others make.

Well... one thing I like to do is silently remind myself: getting frustrated/stressed never improves the situation, only makes it worse. So I try to force myself into a calm state of mind, and just focus on what needs to be done in the present, rather than focus on the mountain of tasks to be faced in the future. It's a bit like the expression, "how do you eat an elephant? - one bite at a time". Another technique might be to take a 5-minute break and listen to some soothing music, or just focus your attention on something light and relaxing for a short period of time. Stress is brought on when your mind becomes overwhelmed with tasks or reminders or whatever else fills your mind. So the main point I guess is just to take on what you need to do one bit at a time, and not to get overworked on all the other things.

I can't think of any "tricks" . Your ability to manage stress stems from your attitude toward life ( postive ), a good sense of humour, the ability to face life's problems head on and a healthy self image.
I find stress gets the better of me when my self esteem is eroded and I begin to doubt myself and my ability to handle the situation. A toxic work environment or trying to operate in a dysfunctional group of people are 2 things I have had to learn to deal with recently.
Set healthy boundaries for yourself and don't knock yourself out trying to change others.
Sometimes I ask myself the question: "Fifty years from now, what difference will this have made?" It has helped me to see how much physical and emotional energy I want to expend on any given situation.
Good luck.

Change the way you look at stress. Think of any problem as an opportunity to excel rather than a test to see if you will fail.

Normally a couple of shots of Jack Daniels in the morning before work helps. Then I smoke a joint at lunch time before I get ready to drive those little bastards home from school on my school bus.
