I'm currently "raging" I haven't felt this mad at someone or something in a LONG time (seems a bit of therapy and pills helps, 2 years off the drugs and mind-benders now and still going strong)

However I find that today I'm losing it. I can keep my cool with other people but that feeling of sheer rage/anger is burning inside me at this moment. It's like my chest can explode and my arms wail at something for no reason.

I never act out towards something with violence, hitting something would probably help at this moment but it's going to be a waste as the thing I'll be hitting won't be the person/thing I'm mad at and it will just be like that ****ing clown that pops back up to laugh at you...

How do you deal with this? I'm seriously thinking of getting motherless stupid drunk tonight just to get rid of the feeling....

And I've tried "goos-****ing-fraba"
 
Painful exercise - i.e. heavy weights, extreme cardio... telling your girlfriend she's fat.

EDIT: I just discovered your facebook profile - how weird is that.
 
If I'm that angry I normally stay away from the person I'm that pissed at until I can gain some perspective. oh yes sex will calm you or as smooth criminal said get some calm with your palm.
 
Sex never works. Quote me on it. I've been even more pissed off after sex than prior to it. Gym won't do it either for me. Alone time with myself and nature normally is the only remedy. So simple, but so unattainable when I really need it.

Edit: alcohol only lasts until the hangover subsides, not a fix either.
 
spa treatment? and by that i mean something working on your muscles. may sound feminine but a lot of tension and stress can be relieved by relaxing the muscles. maybe even a hot bath.
 
I'm with assagai, xrapidx, and smooth criminal - the above mentioned 'tactics' are the only ones that really work... alcohol and drugs wont make the problem go away PERMANENTLY... I'm thinking, regaining control of your emotions, and then working through the problem. Or do like me, walk away, and keep it bottled up for years.... with enough discipline, you can keep it bottled up forever.

Massages work wonders, I really need one :(
 
I like getting away from whatever is making me rage, take a walk to clear my head and then come back and try to address the issue. Either that or I resort to extreme snark.

I'm about 2000km away from them, unfortunately their actions results in my reputation getting (another) "black" mark

+1 That's why I asked here. Punching walls because you're upset is stupid as well.

Spa treatment might work. Maybe with a happy ending. Anyone know any Thai/Jap/Chinese spa's in Cape Town with those services?

I can't get away from my mind... things like, "HOW THE HELL CANT YOU ASK THAT QUESTION AND JUST ASSUME" crosses my mind... with several others. And I'm the ****ing villain at the end of it having to take blame....

Imagine this, I'm not even ON the project yet I'm helping out, but things that's required from THEIR side doesn't happen and I have to do everything myself ANYWAY. Even when clear instructions including screenshots have been given through. EVERY ONE ****ING IGNORES ME AND DOES THEIR OWN MEDIOCRE **** ANYWAY!?!?!?!?!?!\

Now I'm left with the ****? It's not even my ****ing problem!?

Not weird at all, I use the same nickname for everything, the only other Acidrazor (nb the lowercase R and Z) is some kind of art gallery in the USA who also posts on deviantart

Quite easy to just go facebook/nickname and find me... will be interest to see if you can see any info though, not sure if my **** is on private or not
