I drink or go for an intense run and sweat the anger out. Mostly drink.

I usually punch/kick something while uttering a nice river of profanities and blasphemies.
It won't solve a thing, but God it relieves...

hum, that really sucks. I don't what to say to make you feel better as Im prone to high stress and anger as well. What I "try" to do is go out and take a good walk around in the cold. Fresh air and quiet does me some good while trying to calm down. Other then that? I drink too. Don't do that though. Drinking only causes you more problems down the line.

I used to be a mess, control wise. Luckily, a long, healing relationship and hitting a low point helped.
I have a friendly reminder to never lose it again. It came in the form of a scar that covers one of my knuckles, from where I punched a brick wall repeatedly in a rage, leaving the scene with my hands covered in blood.

Sorry Bradley, I have to say something. Your story reminds me of a guy I met. He punched someone in the mouth while drunk and he has a piece of their tooth embedded into his knuckle. I loled then.

It's okay. It was stupid of me. I'm just glad I never stuck anyone in anger, unless you count me damn near suplexing a 200 pound person in a "spar", where we decided to see which one of us would win in a fight. I put them in a headlock, and through them over me in a twisting motion. Turns out I would, even though they're stronger, as I can outwrestle them. They were winning until they punched me in the face, and I got pissed off. Afterwards, we just laughed it off and watched TV.

While it's not quite a $200 iPod, I managed to shrink the hoodie I got for Christmas the first time I washed it. Usually, when I get mad about something like that, all of the little things that happen, like I knock something over or get an article of clothing stuck on something, that's what builds up and makes me want to explode. I don't really have any way to deal with it. I'm SUPPOSED to pick up my guitar when that happens, but I get mad when I screw up playing a song or can't come up with anything that I'm happy with. I just have to chill out until it goes away, and that's not terribly effective.
I did decide, though, that, as soon as the snow is gone, I'm going to start biking. My goal is to be able to ride our 20 mile bike trail from end to end (and back) as soon as possible. That sounds like it'll be a good escape.

What do you guys do when something happens and no matter how hard you try, you can't stop feeling like you're going to f***ing explode? Today, I ordered a personalized cake for someone's birthday and sat it in the backseat of my car with some other bags around it so it wouldn't slide. Drive carefully all the way home only to lose my footing as I'm walking up a iced over wheelchair ramp and started to fall, but lucky for me, the $40 f***ing cake was there to break my fall. Sure, the cake can still be eaten because it was covered, but if I wanted a regular ass cake, I'd have paid 9 f***ing dollars for one and not had it decorated and all that bulls***. I wish I was done with this topic, but I'm not. So I have a dentist appointment today as well. My dentist is a friend of the family who's wife just had a baby in November. She was there with the baby, so I decided I'd say hello and see how they were doing. In the process, I began holding the little guy and he spit up a little bit on my brand new hoody. No big deal, spit washes out. So I come home and remove the shirt in a hurry and toss it in the washer, forgetting that my BRAND NEW MOTHER F***ING $200 IPOD WAS CLIPPED TO THE INSIDE OF THE POCKET! After going through a whole wash cycle and nearly 2 hours of being dried, I have a half melted Ipod that I'm going to have to call and explain to my mother tomorrow why I no longer have the gift I damn near begged her to buy me for Christmas. Did I mention I chose TODAY of all f***ing days to quit smoking weed? My stress level is so high right now, I don't know how to handle feeling like this without smoking myself stupid. Mother f*** 2008, already. If it makes you feel better, my best friend's Mother died (also my neighbor) last night. Your year could be much, much worse. Suck it up and deal with it.

Mother f*** 2008, already. Seems like you had good intentions, but things just went wrong. These days happen. As a previous poster said, it could have been worse - ipods and cakes can be replaced. Between Dec 27 2007 and Dec 30 2007, my cousin's car overturned and he was found unconscious by paramedics. They feared permanent memory loss. Thankfully, it wasn't that bad, but he still suffers from head injury. Then two days later, a relative died. Serious response over.... Don't make me angry, you won't like me when I'm angry I getting angry... AAARGHHwww.fablibrary.com/foto1/PDVD_155.jpg[/img] GRRRRRRR!RRRRRRRRR!

I hit a flying legdrop to the floor from the bed. The pain in my ass soon gets rid of the anger.

I rarely get properly angry, but when I do I more or less lose my mind, and people say they can see it in my eyes, and they know to stop whatever they're doing to piss me off.
That's sober though.
Now, I don't usually lose control on drugs (if you don't count being an asshole), but there's this one time I ate too many pills and drunk probably way too many beers, that I (apparently) became physical with my Powertbook, breaking the screen, rendering my 3 500 dollar computer useless as a laptop. It survived though, and I still use it, but it's not the same... and that's worse than f***ing up your iPod. About 3 300 dollars worse. Still sucks though.
Last time I really lost it was ... six years ago. Some guy in my class threw his wet gym sock at the back of my head, and I just turned around, jumped him and introduced his head to the floor. They got to know eachother well. He never messed with me again.
That's the beauty of being a calm guy no one expects to react like that; when you first do, they're caught off guard. Realy. He was in every way capable of kicking my ass up and down, but he never got the chance.

Which is good, because if you had to throw many Roundhouse kicks, the Earth's atmosphere would ignite from the sheer power, killing all life as we know it.

Man, if a busted iPod and a broken cake are the worst of your worries and send you to boiling point...look forward to some real problems.
