I am so p'd off. I can punch a whole in the wall and the wall is made of ce!

There was a time, billions of years ago when there was no death, just (poorly) self replicating molecules, all derived from a common ancestor, according to the genetic evidence. It was more than 2 billion years later that sex, (reproduction via meiosis) and death began. Then primitive nervous systems, later evolving into simple brains, with a sensorium, to detect dangers, and fear came into being. Overlaid on that basic fish brain is the amphibian brain, then the reptilian brain, then the animal brain, then the primate brain, and finally the massive cortex which enables full self consciousness in the human brain. Situations involving conflict, or a perceived threat often result in a response of anger, and/or fear. In times (largely) gone past, an immediate reaction to such situations was a survival trait, which was handled by the reptilian part of the brain. Keep the above in mind.

If you can't deal with it by using one of the techniques, such as counting backwards from 20, to 1, (and prevent you from allowing yourself to become angry, in the first place) it is important to express that anger appropriately, at the time, and to the person who caused it, if possible, or immediately afterwards. If not, perhaps by walking away later, and bellowing your rage and/or frustration. In some situations, such as work, or school, it might be better to cover your mouth with a cupped hand, bandanna/handkerchief, or use the crook of your elbow, to muffle the sound. Some people find that it helps to journal those thoughts, and emotions soon afterwards. Anger, which is repressed, rather than healthily expressed, tends to fester, and later may cause explosive fits of rage, or depression. Let yourself feel the burning energy of that anger, and visualise it, as vividly as possible, as a hot flame cleansing you. It can help to have someone you can talk to. For more physically inclined people, a punching bag, or hitting your pillow, can be an effective release mechanism: visualise, as vividly as you can, that you are striking back at the cause of that anger.

"But next time, when you get mad, just remember this quote: 'Those who anger you, conquer you.' It's basically saying that when you give someone the power to make you mad, or let it get to you, it's like they're controlling you. When I realized that, it made me mad, so I try to control my anger and not let people see it. You can still control your anger without being walked all over. You just have to draw a line." Try saying to yourself, in your mind: "I am fire! I am ice!". Repeat for as long as it takes for you to calm down sufficiently. Practice a relaxation method, daily, and when needed, such as: (free) http://www.drcoxconsulting.com/managing-… or http://altmedicine.about.com/cs/mindbody… or http://www.wikihow.com/Meditate or Yoga Nidra, (no flexibility required) at http://your-mental-health.8m.com/blank_1… Qi Gong, Tai Chi, or regular yoga suits others better. Give the EFT a good tryout, to see if it helps you. It is free via the searchbar at www.mercola.com "EFT" & "EFT therapists" or www.tapping.com Professional is best. - There is a version for use in public places, (you could claim to have a headache, as you employ the acupressure massage/tapping your temples, but you would then be restricted to subvocalising: saying it to yourself in your mind: "Even though I sometimes make myself angry, I deeply and completely accept myself." These will enable you to emotionally centre yourself, when practiced regularly, and can also help you become a calmer, more self controlled person, who is less influenced by the behaviour of others.

well, you could...
get a therapist
practice deep breathing routines
get a massage or go somewhere relaxing
forget about all your troubling thoughts
day dream
use a journal/diary to let your emotions run wild in

hope i helped...

I've gone to therapy for depression, have a journal(s), and like getting massages...

Well for starters I use to get that way when I was younger, I took my negative energy and wrote. Whatever came to my mind I wrote it down, dont worry about spelling or if it sounds right. Just WRITE.... then when you are done tear it up and throw it way. Its as your throwing the negative out of your life.

You also can try talking to someone you trust, someone who will not tell you what they think but listen to you.

Also try listening to music in a dark room. Good luck to you.

for every angry thought (any wrong done to you) think of a good thing that you should be gratefull for. They don't need to be related.

Watch and laugh.

I punched a whole in the wall too. It was made of dry wall and wood.

Just keep on searching the internet.

Ask yourself, "Do I really deserve this emotional self-punishment?"

Take a hot shower and sleep.

Maybe try drawing or some other form of art

Take up coke
