What can I do to vent anger?
Sometimes I get mad, but it's over really stupid things that I can't talk about because people will laugh and make me more angry. Then it stores itself inside me somewhere since I can't get it out. How can I vent this anger?
Answer:
The idea of taking your anger out on a 'safe' object, (e.g. pillow/cushion) is called catharsis. Studies show that when you do this you are associating you feelings of anger with violence; do this for a long enough period and you may be more likely to be violent when you're angry. It has also been shown that after taking such action, like beating up a cushion, you are actually more likely to be more angry than you were to begin with.
What you may want to do, is try to relax. Do something else, anything that will divert your attention and thus, differ your actions when you are emotional. After you've given it some time, come back to the subject which is causing anger and think about rationally.
Hope that helps.
Buy a baseball bat - get a stack of cusions - kneel in front - visuallise the person or thing - BEAT THE CR*** OUT OF IT
Sit down and write a really long rant and read it. Then come back to it later when you're feeling better so you can smile. I do it sometimes. It works. I also draw and put a date on the picture and come back to it and say...ha ha i remember that day it was bad but now I feel a lot better.
chrisamethyst has the best answer. It works perfectly, I've done it too!

One could tell you breath deeply when it is about to happen and try to overcome it through your awareness of if
There are some very good meditation technincs which would help you to work at a deep level on the problem also explane you what the cause could be
Sometime is psycological, some time is also a healt umbalance ( I am curing at both level similar problem)
Hope this little imput can inspire you.
You could take a up a new hobby that may relax you or it could just be something you do when your frustrated. Or write it in a journal - that helps alot of people. That way your not telling it to someone but your writing it down for your own personal use. Then again you could always get a punching bag or kick box.
Go to the gym, run around the block, get a hobby, talk to someone about your anger. Don"t do nothing because that will only add to your frustration.
i am the same way what i do is either i go out for a walk or some time when it is night time i write on the paper and read it over like a third person is reading some time i find solution i never keep any of my writ tings i shred them some time just for fun if u r mad at some one take a big baking potato and make person face on it with marker then bake it then eat that potato and relieve the anger with out hurting yourself and others .or talk to your dog or horse animals sense ur emotions . most of the time think positive out of it believe me it works it is all mind game.once u cont roll ur mind u r the winner .
anger certainly needs to be vented all to often the only solution we are given is to hold it in... I say have yourself regular temper tantrums... I posted details on my blog..check it out ..
Think of the one object / person / incident that is sure to make you smile.
learn to jog everyday at the end of the day and as you jog treat is as a way to vent your anger, until you have not much energy.
it is a healthy and logical way to vent it
I run or workout hard to vent my frustration and it really helps. Yes I may still be upset over the situation but I don't have as much energy as before to want to be explosive. Also if you have someone to vent to do it or blog it!
Laughing/giggling is a natural reaction to embarassment.
Something to do with animal language; grinning meaning no harm meant, please don't bite me or 'I don't know what to say'.
Many natives of lesser developed countries react like this if you ask them a question which they don't understand. They are not being rude when they look at you and giggle.
go somewhere that nobody can here you and: (sol = screem out loud). youll feel better after this.
Write about. I do that. I address my letter to the person or thing that is pissing me off and make it very explicit. I let out all my frustration - once I am done, I read it over again, take a depth breath and then trash it (shred it if you can!)
By the time I am done writing, I feel much better.
NOTE: NEVER DO IT ON AN EMAIL - YOU MIGHT JUST CLICK SEND BY MISTAKE!
anger is energy let it go positively. Left weights, play sports, dance.etc
kill and destroy or break whatever made you angry at the time you will feel much better i guarantee it
God's Word says, "Be angry but sin not." You have a God given right to get angry. He created us in His image. Our emotional make-up has all those feelings raging in us but you are not to harm anyone when you are that way. When someone offends you, you are to go to them in love (calm) and quietly express what harm or hurt they have done. Most people will listen to you when you are calm. That persuades them to change their disposition towards you. Try it and you will find that things are not as bad as they seem. (smile)
You don't. You write it down carefully in a journal. Then look at it tomorrow. -It always looks different the next day, so update what you've observed. At the end of a month, you will have outgrown the whole thing. Guaranteed. One catch, though - don't lie. If you catch yourself lying, write why you lied.
After Three months I didn't recognize the angry fellow who had begun the journal. Never show it to anyone. Ever- or the magic won't work.
