What are some coping strategies for anger?

I'm feeling really angry lately. What can I do to cope with it?

It's important to acknowledge your feelings. Some effective coping strategies include deep breathing, physical exercise, and talking to someone you trust.

Deep breathing sounds good. How do I do it properly?

To practice deep breathing, find a quiet space, sit comfortably, and inhale deeply through your nose for a count of four, hold for four, then exhale slowly through your mouth for a count of four. Repeat this several times.

What about physical exercise? How can that help?

Exercise releases endorphins, which can improve your mood. Activities like running, yoga, or even a brisk walk can help reduce anger and stress.

Thanks! I’ll try those. Any other tips?

Consider journaling your feelings or practicing mindfulness meditation. Both can help you process your emotions more effectively.
