How do you deal with anger, aside from meds? Any helpful suggestions are welcome. To be honest, one of the things I sometimes feel angry about is that I can’t tolerate meds (I used to take them..prescribed meds.. probably not a good idea as it turned out..my depression/anxiety etc is mostly caused by trauma I believe...) But this post is not about meds. I just wanted to give some very brief background for anyone who may not know me. I also am allergic to pets so this isn’t a helpful suggestion for me personally either. I love dogs and all furry critters so this is a loss for me

Have people found yoga helpful? Does anyone have any specific mindfulness techniques they’ve found helpful?

I’ve recently been playing the piano I recommend this as a good and creative interest/hobby - or keyboards I can sometimes lose myself in playing the piano.. this sometimes helps with anger or anhedonia or other difficult emotions (I guess anhedonia isn’t an emotion.. )

Do you find having empathy for others helps your anger? I do have empathy.. maybe too much sometimes. But not for those who abused me
