Yeah that is an idea, if only I had somewhere to put a punching bag or something...I suppose i could hit a pillow or something softer than a wall. Unfortunatly though hitting something else doesn't always work......it helps get my energy out, but it doesn't have that whole effect of just stopping the intense anxious thoughts/feelings. I always regret it but in the moment before I do it seems like this is what goes on in my brain: 'oh crap this needs to end right now, immediately what to do the only thing that will stop it is banging my head or hitting myself in the head' I don't have those exact thoughts but that is the best way to describe how I feel right before resorting to it
and it just gets more and more intense to where I cannot even think clear enough to come up with an alternative.
