Morning Lenco, I'm actually quite glad I'm not alone in my irrational anger/hatred. I don't know much about Ricky, but I did love the old Brookside as a youngster.
My anger today has been quite bad. I had to leave the house to go tesco and while in the store there was loud music playing. I couldn't focus on anything, or remember what I needed. I started getting angry that the store is trying to control what I buy by confusing the life out of me. So I called for the manager to explain, and tbh he was quite understanding and changed the music to something soft. I know it's not his fault, but in that moment I just had to speak to somebody. I left the store and forgot some things so got half way home and had to turn back. I was in a complete rage by the time I got home. It started raining really bad and my natural response was to shout at the sky and stamp my feet home.
Thankfully I can control myself to the point I'm not outwardly angry or destructive. But it wasn't always this way.
The big question is, why do we get angry in this way over things that other people do not seem to care about? What's the magic fix for this? I get into spirals sometimes where I'm convinced life/the-universe/the-man-upstairs is doing this on purpose
Do you have any methods on controlling anger when it gets like this, or do you just ride it out/
