How do you calm down when you’re angry?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

I’m in a place today where I’m just looking for reasons to start a fight and I don’t need that at work. Any recommendations?

Thanks for this question. I calm down by watch a movie, mostly comedies or something interesting. Music also helps, and walking outside helps too. It's good to not let your anger control you, and when it happens that you get angry, you n need too let out steam with exercise or anything that. will tale your mind off it. Go be in nature, anything that calms you is good.

Breathing exercises, like breathe in, hold for 5 seconds, breathe out, repeat until your heart rate has returned to normal. And I also evaluate why im angry, and often im not actually angry at the thing that triggered me, it was just the last straw. Realising that helps me to slow my mind too.

I used to go to the bathroom, close the door and chill on my own for a good 10 minutes or so when I was at a work environment. Or I lashed out if they were being unfair.

I just remove myself from the space or people who stress me out.

And if that’s not possible?

[Ms_Facesitter]

I always make it possible whether they like it or not.

Start one and go to jail. They will help you.

Take a deep breath about three times. While I am lying in bed or lying my head on the table. Sometimes Listen to music.
