You know what, I thought it through again, and my conclusion is that you should just adopt this IDGAF (I don't give a ****) mentality, someone calls you a piece of ****? Lol idgaf. "I ****ed your mom last night" Lol ok idgaf. dgaf all over the place.
I think about the consequences, and I try to think about why I'm mad for a bit. Eventually, it helps calm me down. It also helps that I'm too lazy to get into a confrontation. http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=xzpndHtdl9A&desktop_uri=/watch?v=xzpndHtdl9A
First you might wanna trim that list some Second, realize how little alot of that matters in the big picture Third, don't attempt to answer those questions. . . learn to smile amicable and either say nothing . . or say I don't know [I love silence . . . learn to ignore people] Relax . . . these keep from getting angry Rocket River
It's all in your mind, brother. You've been conditioned to NOT control your anger. Now you cannot control it. CONTROL YOUR MIND. LET GO of your hate. Spoiler Your mind is WEAK. Strengthen it. Release its potential. Look at all these people throwing insults and offensive language at me... left and right... and I'm not even mad, bro... :grin:
After reading the OP, this is all I could think about... <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/iOFKU_hwj2o" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Priorities. You need to get some that make the list you made seem petty. Like a wife, kid, career. You might also have a touch of OCD that causes you to fixate on these things. Couldn't hurt to ask a mental health pro about it.
Controlling your anger is not as important as always having an alibi! Spoiler ............. ............. .............
seems like alot of your anger is based upon other people. why would you base any of your personal emotions (other than maybe love) in another individual? that definitely probably aids to why things don't go your way. you can try everything people are saying here, but until you make a conservative effort to get out of bed every morning and tell yourself that you're gonna have a good day, no matter what, then it's gonna be hard. realize that nobody really cares if your life sucks or is great. realize that people are gonna act stupid, regardless. do you really want to stay pissed off at something that's inevitable, because if you do, than you're gonna be like 70 one day still pissed off at the world. life is gonna go on regardless of your anger or lack there of. also, realize that 95% of smiles are returned w/ a smile. seriously, try that.

I hear you as I had a situation this morning that really pissed me off. If I can take this moment to rant about it since that makes me feel better. I have a client who owes my company a lot of money. I sent him the monthly invoice this morning and ask about when we can get paid. He sends back an email saying on a related subject what do we do about mistakes that cost him business and brings up something from late last year that wasn't a mistake. I explain to him that what he brought up wasn't a mistake, since we had gone through that then, that we will waive our fees for correcting mistakes that we make which we have done so before. I then state that none of that though excuses fee for completed work. He replies back with a short "Yes it was a mistake" email. I am really pissed now so I reply back with "NO IT WAS NOT" (all caps just that line) and then again explain what we had been through then including the emails showing that. He replies back "Very poor form to be using all caps and if that is the way you want to conduct business that is your choice." Considering this guy has sent emails using all caps before this is bold faced hypocricy of him to be criticizing someone else about doing it but what has really annoyed me though is this is just a petty attempt for him to change the subject regarding paying. Anyway to the OP's question the advice I have is the advice I am practicing right now. Sit back take a few deep breaths, go online or to a friend to vent, and let it slide. Take things all in context. For example I could keep on arguing with this guy but have made my point already and shown I have the proof in case he tries weasel out of paying by claiming we made some mistake. There is nothing to be gained about getting mad and all that matters now is focusing on the goal of getting paid.
