Thread "Calming down" in forum "Comic Talk and General Discussion *"

Posted at 1:04PM, Apr. 8, 2008

i get some some mild music, usually the Wallflowers or Nickel Creek, sit back and read comics online. Some time is play guitar, but overall i generally avoid interaction with people, mainly because people are usually my problem.

its my own way of just turning my brain off, and just not worrying at all for a little while.

If I only have a small problem I just draw and talk to my dog. If I have a bigger problem or a lot of little ones, though, I'll usually throw or break something. At one point or another, I have broken 3(maybe 4, I'm not sure if one was my fault) out of the 6 doors in our house while I was mad. I'm trying to resolve some anger issues right now, obviously.

I don't get mad usually. But when i DO get angry, its the most horrible sight. ever. I remember clearly the incident when my brother pushed me to the breaking point. I began hitting him, pinning him down and pulling his hair. Then i hit him with one of those old wooden rulers. afterwards, I locked myself in the bathroom for 2 hours until he decided to move away from the door.

Thats a bad idea. Don't try that.

I bottle it up until I want to kill myself and everyone around me.

I should probably stop doing that.

Yes.

I meditate…and if that doesn't work I put some music on and dance. Dancing always makes me happy ^^

Usually I'll do anything to distract myself or avoid a problem…if all the stuff pushed aside comes out I either freak out or find some positive way of chanelling my emotions. Art, music, writing etc can help.

Recently I tried seeing a councillor..I'm still not sure if that helps at all but it can't hurt. ^^"

Wow, this got a lot of responses.

I made this topic because at the time, I was going through some stuff. I needed to see other ways of forgetting.

Fortunately, everything's okay, now. I'm back on my toes. Thanks for posting.
