So there are grounding techniques, ways to help a panic attack when you're freaking out, but I haven't learned any ways to de stress when I'm in a rage. I've got little patience, a short fuse lately. I don't start cussing and hitting or anything but I can feel myself getting so worked up and my voice raising so I have to leave the room.

Leaving the room doesn't do much, I still am stressed for quite a while after. So I was wondering if there were any tips anyone would like to share on how to NOT stress out or how to calm the stress when you're starting to get really upset. How to calm down when you're angry or stressed?

I think I remember the hospital (10 or 11 years ago) say something about repeating your favorite food in your head over and over until your calm but really that's not working at all.

Any ideas? I hate the way I get so worked up so quickly
