What do you do when you're angry?

[Jay_Oh]

If I'm 'angry' or 'depressed' my family can usually tell because I play the piano non-stop for hours on end, if I'm really angry or depressed I go for a walk or sit in my room and cry and play my whole cd collection (that's lots!) by the end of that, usually I've calmed down and I talk to someone on online messenger or Michelle (my sister) about things

hrm, i get annoyed, frustrated and irritated by stupidity... however i very rarely get 'angry' or 'upset'... I used to when i was younger but I think i have learned that it just isn't worth it.  If someone does get me to the point where i am angry i am usually just quiet and think through everything because I don't want to say anything i may regret later or haven't thoroughly thought out.

I used to yell, slam doors, blare music and cuss/swear when i was younger, and it never accomplished anything.  Once i realized this and instead tried discussing things or turning things around (on my parents) it improved the entire situation.  Upon looking at it from a 3rd party view, it would seem that I was being manipulative... I think i was just playing the 'game' of growing up smarter than the 'rents

edit: additionally, i hated letting what someone else did or say control how i felt... so i just wanted to ensure i was in control of my emotions at all time.  secondly, people could possibly use what they learn or my anger against me and i never wanted that, so by being quiet and not showing any emotion... i was better protected =)

I am angry too fast and too long lately
I hate everything, myself most
Everything annoys me, I have no patience, I am too lonely, too sad

I used to hurt myself, the pain on the outside is less worse than the pain on the inside
Guess I'm too much of a damn wuss now, bc I can't do it anymore

Instead I just listen to a lot of angry LOUD music, but it's not helping anymore
I'm thinking of taking some kind of drugs again, like I did when I was about 16, maybe that'll help a bit
I know that it only takes the worries away for a few hours, but that's better than nothing
I don't know how else to do it anymore

Si, i'm concerned.  From what i know of you, you seem like a great individual so why do you have such pain?  I'm glad you don't intentionally harm yourself any longer but why did you do it in the first place?

Yeah, i'm worried too. My dad has manic depression- i kinda know what its like. A lot of the time it seems like you're actually feeling what you are, but its just a chemical imbalance in the brain. Thats what a lot of people don't understand about mental illness- that its just the same as if you had flu, but in your brain. It just sounds like you need to get diagnosed and get some anti-depressants. Cos WE LOVE SI! And its not fair that you should suffer this kind of thing. read Nessa's article in Teen Vogue- hehe.
