How To Cope With Anger

I wanted to rip through my computer screen and bash it over his head.

Someone was stealing information. I was watching it unfold in real-time.

We get angry.

There are many situations where steam has come out of my ears. I was red-eyed, chugging down the railroad tracks, in hopes of a collision.

My friend called me fat in middle school, so I dropped him on his head, and he ran home crying. He later went to prison.

Your stories are different, but you’ve felt anger.

You know the feeling.

The tension in your stomach.

Your heart pounds — thump, thump, thump.

You feel the veins in your neck swell with blood.

You want to run your fist down someone’s throat.

We all experience anger — it never accomplishes what you want it to.

Anger makes you irrational. It leads to bad decisions.

Everything I’ve done out of anger has ended badly.

Everything!
