Does anybody know what the best stress and anger reliever is?

Answer 1

Anger is a combination of fear, frustration, and anxiety. Stress is the pressure that causes us to focus on all three.

Our human bodies have ways to deal with stress, and we can help stimulate the body's feel-good chemical production with regular exercise.

We can learn to calm our bodies with yoga or meditation. What those things do is get us to focus on something other than stress. We reroute all that energy into regulating our physical response to stress through relaxation.

What can help our minds relax more, is to let go and give up our need to control everything that happens. We should also give up trying to control our emotions. This is a total surrender. The only thing we should ever bother trying to control is our behavior, and our reaction to things that happen in our environment.

We should learn to accept that our perception of things influences our emotions. Our past experience (and sometimes that means baggage) influences our perceptions.

We would be wise to understand that our perceptions are not always accurate or reasonable. Our perceptions are in fact, quite biased. And that means that our perceptions do not always equal the intent of others.

Sometimes people do/say things that they do not mean to be taken a certain way (serious/joke, sarcastic/direct, etc). It is our choice how we take it (perceive).

More often than not, when we get really fired up about something, it's because it hit a nerve. Maybe there is some truth to it that we do not want to admit. Maybe it reminds us of something we do not have control over but wish we did. Maybe it causes us insecurity, doubt, or feelings of inadequacy. Maybe it reminds us of something we hate about ourselves. Maybe it exposes our weaknesses.

Whatever the case, when we react angrily and throw a tantrum, we give our power away. We allow ourselves to be manipulated and controlled by someone else. Bad idea, because we later feel ashamed and regretful.

Everyone has self-preservation and thinks that they are right and justified. We all think our views are correct. We should accept that everyone thinks this way, and give up trying to convince others that our views are right, while theirs are wrong. We should not attempt to "convert" other people. We should give up treating their priorities as unimportant, while ours are.

So when something really irritates you, you should ask yourself WHY? Why would that thing be significant enough to cause such a reaction? What are we really afraid of? What frustrates us about it? Why would that cause us anxiety? Just being able to answer any of these questions is a huge step toward taking control of your behavior. This is a good start. The rest is easier. We can then see that we have more options to choose from.

3 steps:
1-why did that hit a nerve? (So tell me how you REALLY feel?)
2-will I let it control me? (So will you be a puppet?)
3-how else could I deal with it? (What other ways was it meant to be taken?)

Answer 2

First, to relieve anger you must relieve stress. Some of the best tried and true solutions are:
Exercise - Releases endorphins
Down time - If you have some time schedualed to just do nothing it can help you relax. Don't plan ANYTHING until the downtime actually gets here.
Vizualize - Just think about doing things if you can't do them. The kind of "This is my goal, watch me reach it" stuff
Healthy eating and drinking - Healthy diet + hydration = good
Sleep - Make sure you get enough, but if you're getting too much you need to have a doctor figure out why.
Don't overdo it - Stress can be caused by trying to do EVERYTHING. Just take a break sometimes.
Don't negative self talk - Just don't. It will put you down even further.
Do things for others - As wierd as it seems if you are helping someone with anything it can de-stress you to a certain extent.
Be aware - Make sure you know what's going on around you.
Just chill - Try to eliminate some of the chaos and relax.

That probably didn't help any....

Answer 3

Anything that released stress or testosterone. Or anything that makes you happy

-Laughing, read some jokes on the net or so..
-Doing something you're sure you'll succed, you'll be proud afterwards
-Watch a very funny movie (Laughing).. + it takes time away so you can calm down
-Workout/Exercise, it releases testosterone
-Masturbate.. Yeah sorry, but it also releases testosterone and it's healthy too.
-Eat or drink, don't over do it but eat something good or drink something good
-Friends, be happy, I'm depressed in the morning but when I get out of my 4 and 5th period I'm at lunch and really happy.
-Punch a pillow or something, something that doesn't fight back and you can punch safety without getting in trouble ..
-Videogames, :)
-Make your own thing up, make your own system up to relieve stress. It's fun and be creative
-Write, just write what's bothering you or what your thinking of and keep writing even if you don't know, and your subconsicous thoughts will come up and tell you what your really bothered about.
-Write, again except now write what you think of whats angering you, like "I wanna kill this kid so bad and make him eat his own poop and then stuff him in the toilet.. etc etc" But put it in a letter and no one will find out.. It won't hurt anyone except the paper... :)
-DO NOT TAKE ANY DRUGS ALCOHOL OR DO ANYTHING DESTRUCTIVE.
-Exercise/Burn off testosterone, well both burns off testosterone (Masturbating and exercising), it gets rid of stress and well anger... And releases endorphins which makes your brain happy

Answer 4

There are many ways too relieve stress and they are different for different people if you know what is causing your stress then you can work at ways to avoid it which is much better than trying to relieve it.

my personal favourite is to go to an open space and scream out loud
a relaxing bath and sleep can help calm you down, also listening to music, sex with your partner, yoga anything that chills you out will relieve stress.

Answer 5

Exercise! Honestly - I can be in the worst mood, and then after a good workout (or even a moderate walk around the block) I feel so much calmer. And then, once you're no longer in the bad mood, try to figure out what triggered it in the first place, and do your best to remove that trigger from your life.

Answer 6

ever heard the saying........walk it off? well thats what you need to do. get outside and walk. start off slow then increase your pace. if you have a track nearby that would be the best place to go because you dont have to stop for traffic or walk with your head down. keep your arms moving and clear your head. the madder you get, the faster you can walk. works great for me and clears my head fairly quickly. keep in mind that if you are not used to physical activity, dont just start doing this.

Answer 7

Warm showers, speaking your truth, talking to a friend, praying, doing something for someone else, getting a pet especially a dog, they really are "man's" best friend, they are god to dyslexic people,get it! d o g g o d, just trying for a laugh, and finally but most importantly, try to avoid people places and things that upset you. Get a lifestyle that suits you.
