I think writing things down would force you to slow down and would prevent impulsively sending it as a text or something which is something I’ve done before unfortunately.
I usually use pen, but it's soooo frustrating recently I wrote shyt like "twel12 red penguin fouuurrt furr catat elevator shaft elevate subravecstacane need f**k...." and I couldn't slow anything down and wound myself up into a rage.

I think I have pretty good coping skills if I have time to set aside to actually engage in them when triggered. But it's not like if I pass a cop or some dude tweaking while driving I can break out a guitar or do some crunches. I take some deep breaths, and that helps a little I guess.
