Anger question poll thingie?

Question

How do you deal with anger? I rant to friends on aim or on the phone. My boyfriend lets it build up inside and then goes on long bike rides without his parents permission (resulting in grounding)


How do you deal? Scream into a pillow? ignore it until it all bursts out?

Just wanted to know

Answer 1

with violence

Answer 2

GREAT question - lots and lots of people are choking on anger all the time. The best thing to do is to go straight to the person who made you angry and damn well tell them about it. They may blow you off, or get mad back, but more than half the time they'll be surprised and humbled - and no matter what they do, if feels GREAT to get it off your chest - not as an act of revenge or to be mean (you can't make stuff up, you have to say only what's true and what really made you mad), but just to say what REALLy made you mad. It is the only true, purging relief. ONly time you can't is in politics, like on the job, and if a job is making you choke on anger, it may be time to consider moving on. But if a RELATIONSHIP ever makes you bite back your anger, then you should certainly move on -
