Well, the title says it all - how do you all deal with anger? I know I've told others to meditate during these times, myself. That's the funny thing - when you're not angry, or only mildly, temporarily angry, everything seems so clear.
But I've found myself in a position where I am almost constantly very, very angry. Sometimes I honestly feel like the only thing that would give me relief is just beating the honeysuckle out of someone. Fortunately I still have enough logic to know that I have something to lose and I don't want to throw my future away, but sometimes anger gets the better of me.
I just came back from going for a walk to get out of the house, but all I could think about were things that made me incredibly angry.
I have been in many situations where I've honestly felt like I was a hair's breadth from doing something violent. Every time life kicks me - money problems, a rejection from someone I love and/or the girl going to a "bad boy", other life problems, feeling like I just can't seem to be in control of my life, feeling like the ideas just won't come to me, feel like I just can't make the things I want happen - my blood just boils. Anytime something makes me feel powerless or reminds me of all the things I hate, I just burn with rage.
Do any of you get this angry and how do you calm yourselves down again?
I know I can't go through life like this. Not only will it ruin my life but it is so draining to be angry all the time.
