How do you solve an anger attack without harming others or yourself?

It is good that you can give yourself the space that you need when you are having the attack. Go to a more private place to release the anger.

Anger is a strong emotion that can take over and result in us doing things that we normally would not want to do. To avoid hurting yourself or someone else, distance is a very good first step. If the anger is related to a person, event or location that can be left or avoided, it may be best to take the time to leave and cool off. Then self-calming exercises like present mindfulness, deep breathing and deep muscle relaxation can be used. Knowing what works to distract you and change your focus is another really good tool/strategy. If the situation or person that triggered the anger can not immediately be avoided, breathing slowly, counting before acting and thinking before you decide to do anything can really help. Then not to make decisions when feeling out of control like this.
