Growing older and older, I become angrier each day at the idiots I see in everyday life, if its not the woman that can't drive, its the fucking kid who wont move his baseball game off the fucking road while I'm driving, or the douche bag who wants to be a white rapper thinking he's tough shit. How do you deal with it?

I rarely get angry
learn to find the good in people, life is too short to waste getting upset over small minute things that don't matter

Up the dose.
Seriously, I learned this in Thailand. I was in cab and he pulled up to the light then 50 odd people on scooters, motorcycles and such all pull up in front of him, then the light turns green and we are waiting for all of these fucks to speed up. I told him if I was driving I would run them over and he said the following
"what benefit is there of me getting angry? They are all going to continue on their drive and on with their day and I will be the one made to suffer because of getting angry"
Understand? In the end you are the only one getting angry, all of those people you complained about don't give a fuck, they are going to continue being ignorant and such but you will be the one who suffers from anger.

Angry is just an emotion. It is only a problem when a person can't control it and cant respond in an adult and sane matter.

Anger doesn't go near GBers.

Growing older and older, I become angrier each day at the idiots I see in everyday life, if its not the woman that can't drive, its the fucking kid who wont move his baseball game off the fucking road while I'm driving, or the douche bag who wants to be a white rapper thinking he's tough shit. How do you deal with it?
To the kids playing ball in the middle of the road, I just step on the gas and look straight ahead with that emotionless "don't give the slightest bit of a fuck whether they get hit or not" look on my face and guess what? They move.

repressed anger is horrible for you.
kill kill kill!

used to work with a fella that would blow a fuse over the slightest thing. a massive heart attack took him in his forties :-X

use that anger when you get to the gym, take it out on the weights. fucking kill all those fuckers while you train.

learn to channel your energy... dont let people get the best of you... and it seems people dont piss you, you just get pissed off for no reaso:
if its not the woman that can't drive : there are some dudes that cant drive either. Not everyone is good at driving, thats like being upset at a fat guy in the gym, not everyone is doing good in life
its the fucking kid who wont move his baseball game off the fucking road while I'm driving: They are just kids, and probably dont have the means to go to a baseball field...
or the douche bag who wants to be a white rapper thinking he's tough shit: so what ? do you have 20 inch guns and a six pack? but do you still go to th gym? do you go to the gym because you think your the shit?
my point isyou can chose to be pissed off at everything, and in return make yourself and your life misrable, or you can try to look things from a positive point of view. The white rapper is trying to make money, if he had 10 Mil in his bank account, he probably wouldnt be singing, so at least he's making an effort to make money, whats that to you?
dont get me wrong, there are instances where people legit piss me off, and i think i or anyone has a valid point to be pissed off, but from the examples you gave, it seems you just have alot of anger in you , and are fed up for no apparant reason, and thinking its peoples fault, and not yours.
so to answer you, the way i deal with anger is to put myself or a loved one in that situation.
for example:
Old man/woman doing 20 in a 35mph one lane st : instead of honking my horn, i think of " what if my dad gets older and drives liek that because thats the safe speed he can drive, and someone is honking behind him, how would that make me feel?
That fat guy taking up a treadmill doing a "powerwalk" at 2.2mph for like 50 mins: instead of being pissed off that he's just wasting a treadmill, i put myself in his shoes... that fat guy is making an effort to change his body, thats why he's here, so more power to him, i'll do another form of cardio...
its all about how you chose to percieve it

I need a thread like this to put shit into perspective. I stray off course all of the time and need to remind myself not to get so worked up at shit I cannot control.

hit golfballs at the driving range. something magical about using a 1980s club to slice over the net and hit a car.
if it's a 24 hour range like mine, you can go at 1am and not pay.

Acknowledgement of your own imperfections.. and recognize how they have also hindered others from giving you the benefit of the doubt. Conditional perspective thinking.. Not easy and takes time.... Condition the mind bro

All the replies, except yours, were very helpful. Maybe I am a generally angry person as Marlo Stanfield said. I've put in 110% and haven't got back 60% in return. And maybe this anger is channeled at people that don't deserve it like the lady who doesn't know how to drive. I gotta find a way to avoid it cause I do feel it eating away at me and this is why I asked for everyone's advices. Anyways, thank you all for your responses. I was expecting a more testosterone fueled response (i.e. tip over a small car) but got a better one in return. Thank you again.

I drive the streets at night in poor areas looking for the youngest and most down and out hookers. I then offer them money like they have never seen like $100.
I then take them to a wooded area where I rape and murder them all the time thinking of people who had pissed me off that day.
Works for me not everybodies cup of tea though.
-
I don't get that angry I'm person maybe becuase I come on here to take out my.frustrations. haha

Are you really angry at others, or at yourself? if you re satisfied with your own life, you dont care about others most of the time.

A visit to your moms place usually helps.

Repress it. Then repress it some more. When I think I can't repress it any more, that's when I start drinking.

Seems like you are very unsatisfied with yours then...
To answer the question: I beat my wife and kids. That's how I deal with it. Oh wait.. I don't have neither.. But I will just solely for that reason so I won't need to plow your mom furiously.

Do you take the $100 back afterward or do you let them keep it?

The world is full of idiots and it seems to be a growing epidemic, I blame it on all the rest of the people that don't express their anger in these situations, allowing all the idiots to keep getting away with their retarded behavior.
I don't know how many times I've been in a situation where someone is doing something that is really irritating, even bordering on offensive to an entire group of people and everyone just stands their like a silent mummy while it happening. It isn't until someone finally opens their mouth and calls the stupid behavior out, that the rest of followers suddenly chirp in.
Its weird, everyone was thinking the same thing and all are in the right, yet no one says a word because we're told to be patient, understanding, or have control of ourselves, blah, blah blah. Yes, there is a time for those things and then there is a time to throw spare broken keys out the window at the car that almost plowed into you because the driver thinks he's Dale Earnhardt.
Anger is an emotion like any other, I openly express my joy and sometimes my sadness and fears. I'm not ashamed to express my anger either when the time calls for it.

Anybody a gun owner? It's always nice to go to your local gun range and cap off some rounds to let off steam.
I like to use my 12 gauge pump action shotgun, Glock, .357 magnum(rarely...fucking thing is a hand-cannon), and on occassion...My semi-automatic AR-15 assault rifle.
Once a week is always good. I rarely get angry these days.

Hahahaa, I did this once, had a hooker, paid her, while she was cleaning up I reached into her purse without her seeing and pulled out a wad of cash and pocketed it without her knowing. hahaha

I think I'll agree, although it don't make me angry, I'm certain that dumbass is rampant in our society. It's not that people are any dumber than before, it's the fact their isn't anything keeping people in check.
Going out in public in the past was generally dangerous, as pretty much anything can happen, nowadays, public places are the safest meaning dumbass thrives.
-
Hardly ::)
what is it then? if im angry about getting cut off on the hgwy, its a subconcious reaction to being put in a potentially dangerous situation with harmful reprucussions. If you are angry about a black man loving your mommma, you are subconciously afraid that the black man is gonna steal your beloved momma away from you.
If you are angry, you are afraid of something that is causing that anger, whether you are in denial and your pea sized brain realizes it or not. ;)

not quite
anger is from hurt , fear and/or frustration
anger is an emotional response that was learned from experience as a way to quell the rage they feel ... I've seen people get irate , swear and slam shit over some stupid thing like a shopping trolley having a rickety wheel
there are many many people that don't get angry ... they don't "react" with rage for a release .. they think it through and find a solution or just let it go
they will end up healthier and happier no doubt

I take the pre-emptive-route and meditate (brainwave entrainment / light- and sound stimulation) and I also have some mantras or "affirmations" that I repeat in my head. Some of the words I use are: Piety, humility and self-discipline.
Cold water therapy is a great way to get rid of unwanted thoughts, at least for me. When I take a cold shower I have to concentrate on controlling my breath and slowing my heart rate - and it's really hard to focus on anything else (upsetting things). ;D

One more thing, I'm a huge fan of adaptogens and I think they may have some benefits when it comes to reducing stress and elevating mood. My all-time favorite is Rhodiola Rosea but I do take a lot of different ones. :)
"The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of repeated low-dose treatment with a standardized extract SHR/5 of rhizome Rhodiola rosea L, (RRE) on fatigue during night duty among a group of 56 young, healthy physicians. The effect was measured as total mental performance calculated as Fatigue Index. The tests chosen reflect an overall level of mental fatigue, involving complex perceptive and cognitive cerebral functions, such as associative thinking, short-term memory, calculation and ability of concentration, and speed of audio-visual perception. These parameters were tested before and after night duty during three periods of two weeks each: a) a test period of one RRE/placebo tablet daily, b) a washout period and c) a third period of one placebo/RRE tablet daily, in a double-blind cross-over trial. The perceptive and cognitive cerebral functions mentioned above were investigated using 5 different tests. A statistically significant improvement in these tests was observed in the treatment group (RRE) during the first two weeks period. No side-effects were reported for either treatment noted. These results suggest that RRE can reduce general fatigue under certain stressful conditions." - http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11081987

How do you deal with it?
Honestly? And not just a 4% bodyfat, 5'7", 277 lb. Getbigger's input? (Yeah, yeah, I'm a fucking dwarf. Harharhar, "Adonis" :roll: ;) .)
I am so much more relaxed and cool at 34 than I was at 24, it isn't even funny. People are quick to talk about hormones, but I'm currently on over a gram of shit total/wk., and it ain't bunk stuff made in some redneck's bathtub either.
I say it's more about getting comfortable in your own skin. Most teenagers are insecure as fuck. Most early twenty-somethings are similarly insecure. Take note the next time you're at the gym at a busy hour. The guys strutting around in sleeveless shirts, posing in the mirror and all that shit will generally be the young dudes. The older huge guys who might've last gone off cycle in 1985 will often be covered up and don't give a shit if the younger guys think they look big but fat, are all drugs, etc., etc.
In conjunction with that, it's all about learning to not take yourself so seriously. When I was 16, I was obsessed with being the biggest, strongest, smartest this and that. When someone smoked my SATs, I took it personally.
(That isn't all that hard, actually. My math was so pathetic that, in spite of the fact I scored 780 on the verbal, my nat'l below-avg. 410 saw my ass kicked six ways from Sunday.)
But before I hit the ubiquitous short-attention spanned Getbigger's "TL:DR," I'll just reiterate anger management goes back to YOU realizing that, while you're special and all that b.s., you aren't SO special that you're owed some righteous indignance against random people in traffic or an idiot wigger acting too big for his britches.

dude all that's needed is one, just one example of anger in the absence of fear to disprove your point. However, in the trolley cart example you could always use pseudo science to suggest the person was fearful of not have a trolley, or not getting something and thus anger is elicited. Fear is certainly primary.
