Hot Head!
May 12, 2007
This is a long and personal post, you’ve been warned. :)
I never used to get easily pissed off. I remember myself always being the optimist. Always being happy and smiling. I even remember I used to smile so much people used to think there was something going on.
All of that was a long time ago, around 10 years or more. When I think of it, I wonder how I transformed over the years.
Recently however, the worst transformation is my temper! Okay so I don’t go around breaking things, or starting fights, or swearing and cussing or even shouting.. but it is there. Of course the experts always say keeping emotions bottled in isn’t a good thing, maybe I shouldn’t. I’m afraid I might explode though if I do let a shred of that anger out!
Instead, what do I usually do? Obviously there are those whom I care about, and having a bad temper doesn’t help anyone really. Currently I do control it, and try to figure out what it is that is bothering me so much. I try to put myself in a different perspective. I do not make excuses for others but I do ask myself why does this particular thing make me feel this way. When I do that, and really think about it I figure out how tiny this thing is. It seems clear that this thing that I am so pissed about is so small and is not worth all this emotion!
Oh, and even when something *seems* worth getting pissed over, it *really* isn’t.. only because of context and the bigger picture. If you’ve asked yourself over and over and you still couldn’t figure out how to make something not bother you, then step back.. and think again because there is always a way. I know it to the point that most of the time I start to surprise myself!
Note: The world is one big soup bowl. You either enjoy it, or drown in it.

if i am extremely angry which doesn’t happen often (last time i was angry was three years ago and it was for a class which i got an A in, long story) i cried for a really really long time maybe non-stop 3 hours
but otherwise i will go to sleep, it helps me forget why i was so angry in the first place

oh lol i’m a hot-head :P
bas I dont blow up in people’s faces, I keep it to myself… err… sometimes…
bas I only get angry for things that are worth, ana min il noo3 ili iy6awif wayid ashya2 o at’3atha 3an il nithar, but when things happen way too often and are malicious towards me, that’s when I get angry…
and even then after the initial outburst I will look back and see if I was right in my reaction, if I was then so be it, if i wasn’t I have no problem apologizing and setting things straight :P

Laialy_q8,
Yeah sleep helps, I haven’t tried it much but if you get the opportunity then that is good, no reason to burn yourself up.. sometimes it just isn’t worth it at all
cixousianpanic,
I think that is healthier than keeping it all in! It is all about channeling, cause it is excess energy and emotions! I also heard that depression is anger (rage) turned inward.. this isn’t good but oh well. It always helps to set things straight

Well, first of all dont apologize for how you feel
temper.. there is a reason. A lot of things dont make sense and a lot of people are idiots
you shouldn’t burn yourself over them, yea I say that but dont practice it
What can you do.. we get pissed off
dont feel bad about it though

i think most of the time i just let myself drown
it gets too much
but your right everyonce in a while its good to take a step back and evaluate the situation
a little anger every now and then is healthy
