How to take out anger?

I get really, really angry, and whenever I take it out (i.e: screaming, swearing) my parents get me in trouble for it. I feel like I might explode so is there any way to take out my anger so no one will see it?

  • I scream. Loudly. And throw things. Many of which break. Lamps are good. Phones. If people are around I throw things at them. If I were bigger I'd throw people at other people.

    But mostly I think I handle anger well.

    Scribbling is supposed to be amazingly good for anger. Buy a big sketchbook and some thick (so you don't snap them and get angrier) coloured pencils. Get it out!

      and actually, being a person that has had serious anger issues, I wouldn't listen to a lot of these suggestions. acting out your aggression is very tempting and feels fantastic, but it's addictive, and generally just keeps your anger going. You can read this in a book if you want. Don't throw shit.

    Get a notebook and write out all of your angriest, most horrible thoughts.
    Punching a pillow is good too.
    When you're angry, it's much better to be able to let it out because otherwise it builds up and makes you stressed out. The things that have been suggested might sound a bit daft, but anger can be daft and irrational as well and at least with these methods of relieving it, you won't be hurting anybody.

    When I was about five, I remember a conversation between my grandma and her sisters. They were talking about this very thing. My great-aunt said she often buried her face in a pillow and screamed bloody murder until she felt she'd got it all out. She was such a calm woman, that it really surprised me. But then, maybe that's why she was calm.

    My grandma on the other hand just called things buggers. It could be a fly, a cushion, even the sun. Everything was a bugger when she was angry.

    i feel the same way all you have to do is get some silly putty or a stress ball and start playing with them or you can count to ten in your head.

    As one of the wisest beings ever to have graced this planet once said "anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering." Plus you don't really want to go to the dark side, do you?

    Exercise. Outdoors if possible.

    Well, to get my feelings/anger i always wrote in a tablet writing what i felt everyday.. I loved that notebook. Anyways, that's how i controlled myself from doing anything stupid.

    If u can't communicate with your family without screaming, i suggest counselling to help u with better ways to get your point across. Family counselling would be even better to help the whole family communicate better.
