How to Take Out Frustration or Anger- Without Hurting Anyone Else

Often times one can get so frustrated or angry that all they want to do is smack someone down or pound the wall. This can cause injury to others as well as themselves. There are other things that can be done to ease the frustration and anger that will not cause harm to anyone. Here are a few suggestions.

At the initial onset of frustration or anger, stop and count. If 10 won't do it count to 100 in a focused manner. This will stop the mind's urge to do something immediately without thinking and possibly make the situation worse.

If you are with the person causing the frustration or anger move away, get out of there, go somewhere else until you can calm down and reasonably assess the situation. Getting into a fight isn't going to help anything.

If you are in a car and start to go into a rage, do not act out. You could hurt yourself and worse, hurt or kill an innocent person. Pull to the side of the road until sanity returns.

Now that the initial frustration or anger has been quelled there are some things that you can do to keep it that way. Humans like to dwell on things that bother them instead of letting it go and going on with life. Get that frustration and anger out of your system for good.

Go to the gym and let off some steam. Work out on the machines or find some boxing gloves and knock around a bag. Imagine the person's face on that bag and punch away. You can't hurt anyone but yourself this way.

Find a place to go where no one will hear you and nothing is around that can hurt you. Go for a walk in a secluded woods, take a friend if you don't feel safe enough to go alone. Once you get to where you don't think anyone can hear you yell. Yell as loud as you can. Scream. Tell that person what you really think of them even though they aren't there. Let it all go.

Find some friends that understand the situation and go to a paintball court. Rent equipment and understand safety issues that come along with a paintball game. Take out your frustrations on your opponents, being careful not to go overboard of course. Paint ball is fun but it can also alleviate some of your frustrations and anger especially if you imagine the person you are angry at is the hay bale you are shooting at.

Go to the batting cage. Smacking a ball around with a bat really does ease the aggravation you may have. The ball can't go far because you are in a cage so everything should be safe.

Anything physical will probably do the trick but don't forget about the mental issues that surround frustration and anger. You need to let the issue or even the person causing your anguish go. Imagine throwing the issues over a big cliff. They are gone and there is nothing more you can do with them. Just be sure you don't actually push the person causing the issues over that cliff. You don't want to get yourself in a lot of trouble over a silly issue that can be taken care of in another way.

Paintball gun for tourney?

now I have done my research on these paintball guns but I still can't decide which on to get .Should I get a SP EOS, PROTO SLG, PROTO Matrix rail SE, Spyder RS, or a Sp epiphany. Can anyone help me choose an then tell me why you chose that gun. I want a good gun that can handle its own and has some good upgrades. I know none of these are mege expensive and thats what I like about these markers, so can any of you help. thanks

Of those i would go with the proto. either the rail or the SLG is fine, though the rail is better. the epiphany is also pretty good, better than the SLG i would say, but not as good as the rail (i have seen all these guns in action). I'm surprised you didn't mention the ion.

when you play in tournaments though, don't worry too much about your gun. worry more about your conditioning. practice your skills such as snap shooting and running and sliding. also practice communication with your teammates.
