Stop: Take five seconds and drink a glass of water. This is enough time to cool the heat of the upset. No water around? Then take some swigs of air and blow the air out like you are blowing out a flame. Detach: Notice where the anger resides in your body. Put your hand on your head, neck, or gut and observe the feelings. Just doing this and the fury will begin to subside. Vent: Find someone you trust and use your most creative language to let the mad out. No one around? Talk to yourself and let it rip. Ride the upset like a wave that will soon come to shore. Visualize: See the other as a little child who was powerless. Often the one who makes you feel like crap is really a frightened child inside. This makes the other less intimidating as you prepare to discuss the situation. Identify: Look at your own triggers and notice why you became so challenged by what was said or done. Hint: Often is has to do with how conflict was resolved in your own family as you were growing up. Restructure: Change the negative thoughts of revenge and disappointment to the positive of "I can handle this successfully." Ask: Prepare to discuss the situation by having accountability questions ready such as "What do you want as an outcome of what just happened?" or "What was the purpose of what you just said." Emote: Use "I" statements that include how you feel. Hint: you have to feel a feeling such as sadness, hurt, anger, etc. You cannot feel "that" the other person did or did not do something such as "I feel THAT you gave me too much work." Listen: Once you say how the situation made you feel you are ready for the last part of the equation to say "And now I would like to hear from you." And then the task is to again take deep breaths and be quiet.

I try to think about the positives in my life. The positive factors keep me uplifted and motivated throughout my difficult days. I think about the people who really care about me and that motivates me to stay positive in difficult times. If I get really angry I try to release my anger in a harmless way either by shedding tears or punching a pillow. If I get really angry at a person I try to calm myself down before entering into a fight or argument with that person.Its always advisable to think rationally even in most difficult times.

When you find yourself very mad, it’s best to remind yourself in the moment that this feeling will not last forever and that this is a vulnerable time as you may do something that you later regret. Take some slow, deep breaths to slow down that anger response and to think about how you can calm yourself down so that you don’t act abruptly. If you need to vent and get the anger out; perhaps running or boxing would help you to feel better and reduce the intensity of your feelings. When I am mad, I might speak to someone that understands me so that I can process my emotions and calm my mind down. I find doing all of these things can be helpful to work through the emotion. Another thing that helps me is journaling. I like to write when I am mad. It helps me to put down all my thoughts so that I can take the thoughts somewhere else and then I usually read it after which calms me also and then I throw it away. This helps me to effectively remember that those thoughts were not me, I can take them onto paper and away from me and it changes my mindset... allowing a clear mental space to move forward with.
