Actually, spinning's a good way, I find... That and listening to Nitzer Ebb as loudly as neighbors or local law inforcement will allow.Kneading bread and making loud screechy noises with my synths I find theraputic too, though you should't try to do those at the same time or the flour might gum up the pots.
Hope all goes well. Anger gives you energy, and it can be used constructively....

I have always found doing laps in a swimming pool is very theraputic (providing you're an OK swimmer)... slap the water, focus on the black line and just go til you can't anymore.after you've chilled a bit, lay on your back and just float.

I always found playing music clamed me down heaps. If i get pissed off big time i will pick up my guitar and play the most challenging piece i know. Becuase to do it well you have to forget all the bullsh*t going on and concentrate.It works for me anyway.CheersAPB

I like to revel in any and all of my powerful emotions (happiness, anger, sadness, loneliness, love, content etc) to really experience such a strong feeling. It makes you really think about the feeling and what is causing it and how it makes you feel. You can't do it for too long if it is a negative emotion, as depression can set in. With the negative ones I find it is best to be alone somewhere, doing something you like that is energetic (Cycling, skating, walking, weights and twirling are my choices). This way you can think and experience and at the same time wear yourself out physically so that the feeling doesn't take control.That or write your frustrations down.

Over the past Four weeks that I have been learning Poi, if I get really angry/frustrated with anything I get out the fire Poi and attempt to try the move I have just learnt/am learning it requires that much more concentration that I tend to forget about what was worrying me

Holy shit!yeah, that's a big smilePersonally, I redirect my anger into my meditation. It helps a lot, it just takes disipline.

Yoga is an excellent antidote to any kind of stress/anger/depression. (keeps you beautifully fit and toned as well).However, it is totally normal to feel angry when someone/thing really pisses you off and you shouldn't give yourself a hard time for having negative feelings, they are as much a part of you as the positive ones. Without either your personality would be unbalanced. I hope this helps. Onelove, Thistlefirepixie[This message has been edited by Thistle (edited 16 November 2001).]

Rough and tumble, teeth clenching, sweat everywhere, animalistic sex....it seems it starts out that way and then when all your frustration gets "worked" out it turns into just fun!Or any of what everyone else says. I also love to go for a long, hard drive in the car. Speed always seems to tame me.I hope you are feeling better Katinca! ::hugs::------------------Pele Higher, higher burning fire...making music like a choir...https://www.pyromorph.com

When I get really mad and pissed off, I find that sleeping it all off works wonders. You feel all good and stuff afterwards when you wake up. Try doing this overnight. I wouldn't recommend short naps. You always feel groggy afterwards.Find somebody to give you a really good massage. Massage can get rid of all that built-up tension inside you. Not only do you feel a hell of a lot better afterwards, you're in much better shape to spin afterwards. What can be better?
