Forums General Chit-Chat How do you handle anger and stress? (Rant)

Voltie Posted 6 years ago ( 2018/07/1 22:30:14 )
@Neko: Yeah I get that way too sometimes, but I'm not usually a crier unless the scenario is really bad. I sometimes just lay in bed with the lights off when I'm really depressed.

@Tuijp: Owch that must have hurt a lot. I don't usually punch things for that reason but when you're blinded by anger like that it's hard to think of the consequences before you act XD (Also love the Dumbledore quote!)

@Glume: I would love to have that kind of confidence haha, I'm always worried about what people think unless I'm with my girl or a friend then I tend to be a bit more of a goof. JamJam usually likes to Jam in the privacy of his own home to avoid the judging eyes XD but that's a great strategy to use the anger to fuel greatness.

@Saeyra: Yeah I agree with that 100%, but there's only about 2 or 3 people I usually vent to in those situations because I know that if I talked to anyone else they probably wouldn't care and I don't wanna burden people with my problems. With those people I put on the "Happy acting mask" and just pretend nothing is wrong at all which I'm probably a bit too good at. XD

@Unicorn: Yeah I hope so too, she's been pretty swamped with schoolwork so I'm hopeful we'll be able to figure something out in the next few days.

@Rallaa: That's almost exactly what I find myself doing, especially if I end up upsetting my girl by being upset at a situation and getting more upset because she's upset. Also yeah whenever I try to do something I usually enjoy when I'm like that it barely helps and I just end up thinking about it just as much .

@Unicorn: Yeah once this semester is done for her it'll be a lot easier for us to see each other, and much less stress on her shoulders.

@Unicorn: Another month at least, not exactly sure when she said it ends. Been tough but we've been able to manage quite well so far given the circumstances.

@Unicorn: No worries, she's in university and there's 4 semesters per year. She's currently working hard on her final semester there hopefully.

@JamJam: at the rime, I had a lot of stress and was very angry. After I took the anger out on the lamp, I was still stressed and angry, but now also had a painful hand with a nice blue coloured pattern on my hand.
It's my favourite quote of him.

My shallow heart's the only thing thats beating

@Tuijp: Yeah I totally get that since my knuckle still hurts but it still makes me angry that I couldn't change the situation. At least it's over now and I can try to remember that if it's inevitable that my knuckles don't need to pay for their sins haha.

@JamJam: think of your poor knuckles next time you feel the need to punch something (or punch a pillow)

@Tuijp: That's exactly what my girl (Sulley) said! I just wasn't thinking about how bad it'd hurt I just wanted things to be different.

@Tuijp: I'm really hoping next time I get that angry I won't be as dumb with my fists, but you never know XD
