what do you do?

Question

when it comes to anger, do you think before you speak? explain

Answer 1

It is always best to think before you speak when angry. Certainly do not write emails when you are angry. Words can be forgiven but not always forgotten..Sometimes the anger takes over though. Its something that gets easier with practice.

Answer 2

I always think before I speak. Reason being that the cruelest things can often be said out of anger. And whether you mean what you say or not, it's still hurtful and it still has an adverse affect on the person your anger is directed towards. I don't like to hurt people just because they make me angry or upset. I try not to say anything I will later regret, so I make it a point to think before I speak and to mean everything I say. That being said, if I do say something cruel, then I mean it... so the person on the receiving end of my words probably deserved it.

That's my take on it, anyway :o)

Answer 3

my way of taking care of anger -- first of all try to always think before you speak cause you can not take back words once they have been spoken. But what i like to do is i have a notebook that i write down how i feel and what i want to say and why i am feeling that way. that way i am not going to hurt anyone. the book is for my eyes only. plus i can write in it anytime i want and say how ever much i want. and it is not just for anger. if you are having a bad or sad day it helps to talk about it too.

Answer 4

I used to explode right away when I got angry. It didn't help that I was with a stupid idiot called my husband that is a liar, cheater, user, and abuser. Once I broke away from him emotionally and mentally, then finally physically, I learned not to explode so easily. I now think thru for a few hours to a few days about the situation and try to talk about it with the other person when I am calm. It doesn't do any one any good if you are yelling, screaming, etc out of anger. It is more beneficial to talk it out calmly. Then you won't tend to say things you wish later you hadn't of said, or do things you wish later you hadn't of done. It's better for everyone for you both to have control over what you say and do rather than saying and doing things out of anger.

Answer 5

When in anger think of this , a fool blabs all he knows but a wise man waits. It is so easy to say the wrong thing when in anger so when very mad wait 10 minutes and then get back to the issue after you have had time to cool off.

Answer 6

NO, I don't do this. I should but when I get angry there is nothing stopping me from spewing off at the mouth. I need to learn some anger managment techniques.

Answer 7

I realize that it always best to put your mind into gear before you put your mind into action, but have to admit that I have been guilty of not practicing this when angry. It is best to think before you speak as what you say may hurt someone badly and/or come back to haunt you later. Remember that we have two ears and one mouth so we should always listen twice as much as we talk.

Answer 8

Always think before you speak. It's nothing worst than regreting what was previously said. Sounding like an idiot can't be a good feeling.

Answer 9

When you feel angry don't express it on people !! especially if it's about your kids or friend , it will only make you a bad person . You just try to calm , think that you must not get mad . Make a test : look in the mirror when you are mad and look at your face . You won't like it , you will hate it so bad just for it's expression and its meaning . Try to solve the problem with calm , and if it is about your boyfriend/girlfriend just kiss him/her when the conflict rises. Works great ;) trust me !

Answer 10

Yes, I think before I speak in all situations because I don't like looking or feeling like an out of control moron.
