Answer 2

You should attend Anger Management Class or some type of counseling that will help you with self improvement. If your being called "drama" by others, usually this is what men call women now a days, so it's nothing to be ashamed of. Just ignore these people & try to focus on bettering yourself. Meditating is a really good technique, also other things you can do to lower your stress is to excercise more often, at least 4x/week, do more outdoor activities, surround yourself with positive people, go out & have a good time, don't worry about what other people say about you, when you have bad times in life, try your hardest to stay positive & focused by reminding yourself of your past accomplishments, etc. & most of all, when your feeling down, have a piece of chocolate. The ingredients in chocolate helps to stimulate the angry mind that helps you relax. Always remember that you only live ONCE.

I felt the same way as you for awile. Best thing to do is think about everything as a whole. This world is full of drama, and most people who are like that are looked upon in a negative way. Being true to yourself is very important, and I agree never lose that, but when you argue, be intelligent about it. Come back at people with a level headed educated answer. this does take practice, and you will have to work at to keep your composure, but in the end you will come out the winner while still getting your point across.

Sometimes we tend to let our temper get the best of us, at times we don't really realize that we are doing it but we are....And that it called a lack of self~control...Anytime we cannot control our emotions especially when we get mad we lose our temper. It could be something small to something big the most of the time we be blowing off steam so to speak...The best way to try to control your temper is to walk away from the problem that is causing you to feel like getting mad, Go to a quiet place in your house or a special room and sit down and relax or do some breathing exercises that will come you down enough to speak to whomever it is that is causing you to get mad.

All of these things work but it takes time and practice to put them into a working order so you will be able to do it without even thinking about it...Like I said it takes time and practice doing it...it will work just try it sometimes..I know I have the same problem with controlling my temper and I realized that it was a danger to me because of my blood pressure so I did what I suggested to you and yes it did work..And I am still practicing so you are not alone! Good luck!

Answer 5

Practise being more calm through situation. Surround yourself around calm people. Take some time to search you in some quiet time for yourself. I notice a lot of drama is always surround by lots of people. Do yoga and meditation. You can still be fun but no drama.

Answer 6

People get angry. It’s normal. It’s how you *react* to that anger that’s important. Clench your teeth if you need to in order to keep from spouting cruel words, because once they’re said, they can’t ever be taken back. Clench your hands if you need to in order to keep from snatching up a dish and throwing it against the wall, because what purpose does that serve other than the added expense of having to replace it. Take a deep breathe and mentally focus on calming down. Walk away if needed. Once you’re calm, deal with the situation.

Oh, and one more thing, realize that not everything in life is worth the fight. Save your fight for the things that really matter.

Answer 7

Why should you change? You shouldn't make it your problem what other people choose to call you. Most of the time, people react to righteous anger by using namecalling and blaming, so that they don't have to look in the mirror. I also have a reactionary personality, and this is something that not everybody can successfully turn off, so I know what you're going through.

I did, however, learn over the years that one way to curb down your reaction is that every time somebody does something, or somebody says something that is offputting to you, realize that it has more to do with them, than it does with you.

Sometimes you can respond with a joke.... or simply a raised eyebrow, looking at the offender straight in the face and walking off without saying a word, and while you do that, say to yourself that this has more to do with them, than with you.
