We human-beings get anger in many situations because of a particular person's speech or his activity .. or may be whatever it is ..
I just want to share my own idea of overcoming an angry situation . What will you do , if an angry sense arise in your mind ..?
Don't express immediately and lose your status , spend that particular moment without speaking or expressing anything to the opposite party .
Drink little water or close your eyes for half minute and avoid the moment as a standby mode .After some time talk to the person in a explainative manner with little love & honour .. It is a very difficult & comes easy if it is practised ..
I think it will a good discussional topic .. Start writing your thoughts shared here ..

People in general (rarely) get me angry. Bad situations get me angry, or worse yet, scary situations. I get angry because then I have something new to worry about. And I'm tired of worrying, so I get mad and scared at the same time.

@Druscilla034 - How come some people don't make you angry?

I just ask to be left alone for a few minutes. That or I just leave before I say something regretful. I would also suggest to others if somebody is angry and they ask you to let them alone: Back. Off. Do not follow them, do not argue and nag. Just let them be. when they're ready, they'll come talk to you. Other wise you've got nobody to blame but yourself when they put a spinning kick to your face.

good suggestion shasta . I will try to follow your suggestion and many don't do what you have said they just keep on following the angered person and gets scolded , later they regret of following the person.

A little space to calm down helps a lot. Respect is often helpful.

I adopt the approach suggested by you. If anyone makes me angry, I try to count 1 to 10 in my mind and allow me some moments to ponder. I believe may be that person is getting angry due to his own frustrations or problems and not because of me. I do not react immediately and when the person gets normal, I share my point of view with him.

@writerjo - We need to empathize with others.

@dpk262006 Your type of approach comes to a matured person .
The point of understanding the opposite party you mentioned is really good .

@dpk262006 That is what a difficult factor here ..
If one has the ability to empathize with others , no problem at all

I run away from angry situations. Most of the time I can do that. I do not bother with it as it is nothing but trouble.

The fact that you are asking this question is half the battle won. Some think it is normal to vent one's anger. Having said that the best as many have said here is to leave and come back when as they say time takes care of diffusing the situation somewhat.

I used to be quite and calm when I'm angry, and in most cases I tend to get out of the situation and let myself relaxed for a while and wait for the things to cool down before starting to talk so that no bad words can be said and to avoid hurting others too.

@Katriona_22 you have this type of mannerism , so you got good mothers in your life I think , am I correct .. ? showing or expressing anger is an unimportant one . Beautifully said ..

@writerjo I also don't want to stress myself out, its better to be quite when angry so that situation won't get worst, but there are times that I cried because I can't express how angry I am.
Yeah, I have two good mothers and I owe it up to them, being good still amidst the anger feeling.

Provided you know you're not the reason for the anger, let the angry person shout it out while you tune them out. Hone back in every now and then. Sometimes from the bits and pieces you extract you can figure out what's bothering them. Worse case scenario, they'll yell until they get tired and then shut up! If they get violent never stay in harm's way. RUN!

I had experienced same very you are pick of anger we do or speaks lots of things which can only regreted later.
But one thing is sure it is very complicated to deal with.
I am also trying to ignore a other peoples immediate reactions came out with instant anger and give them to time cool down to avoid loss of my cool mood

Hey Ebenz indeed it is a good topic to discuss. I think we saw in many movies to control anger they start counting 1 to 10 which is hard to do . I prefer to stay calm without saying a word when i angry. I hope hope it is simpler than counting numbers which we forget to do while we r angry .

@prashu228 sometimes we may even angrily count the numbers .. So keeping quiet and try to pass that particular moment will be better I think ..
