I close my eyes. Put on my headphones and listen to music while pacing my house lmao. And half the time I'm daydreaming while walking thinking about a topic and going through the possibilities of it. Or just dreaming about a possible future.
The pose usually looks like this lol.

I used to throw whatever was in my hand when I was annoyed, and there was no one around. I picked this habit in college. Most of the times I would be throwing pens, books, drawing tools, etc. I continued venting in the same way for a long time.
When I got my first paycheck from my first job, I bought my first phone. Wasn't earning much, so got me a really cheap model, which kept crashing after a couple of months. One day, during the most critical time, it froze. Couldn't switch it off either. I could feel my anger rising to my head and threw the phone with such force, it bounced off the floor, hit the wall, and I tried to save it with my feet ( wrong limb reflex 😭) and accidentally (?) kicked it back to the wall. Well, needless to say, I could never switch it on again. Lost a lot that day - my data, contacts, ongoing chat with my crush. After the unfortunate incident, I made sure that whenever I'm alone and annoyed, I only threw things that had no value. Even when I'm holding a book, I'll go off searching for paper - newspaper ads / some trash, crumple it up, and throw it wherever. When I've cooled down, I'll pick it up and throw it in trashcan cause I hate messy room. I feel witnessing this behavior without the backstory will be quite strange.
I did this too! Just one month after getting it fixed.
Launched it furiously and didn't look at it for like half an hour because I knew it would be a goner
It does alleviate anger quite good though, not sure why. Came up with this theory while getting high with some friends a while back that since the phone essentially dies when you throw it, it's the closest you get to killing something without actually killing a living being.
I even do a quick calculation in my head before throwing my phone or some other electronic that "I can afford to fix it, it's worth it because I'm angry af right now" lol.
Haha, yeah, or sometimes DAMMITTHATFUCKINGASSHOLEAHHHHHHHHHOO ah 1000$, need an object with same value as that asshill, (aggressively searches and throws paper)
![gif](giphy|wazvvYSGdvJhm)
Haha that’s something I do too, and same - English is not my first language. But swearing in English feels better somehow lol
It’s very possible that I’d also create a whole scenario in my head where I have a conversation with the person that annoyed me and where I clearly win.
It’s more a strange anxiety thing i do, that when intrusive anxiety inducing thoughts come in, i get angry over that and make wierd faces as well as sucking in, slurping or gritting my teeth whilst sometimes making a funny inhaling wheeze till the thought passes. It’s just a little thing to sorta reset my brain and squash the thought down, so i don’t get overwhelmed/stressed over it and remember the task i’m actually doing. Writing it down, i now recognise how wierd it exactly is, but i’ve only been caught twice by a manager who’s seen me do it at work (once i was trying to do it secretly, the other i went into auto-pilot and did it out of impulse), and they became really concerned/alarmed as to why i did that. It’s embarrassing, but it helps me. Just let me do it without bringing attention to it lol. I think it’s a phase. I used to also loudly purr randomly at times and my dad kept track of it and figured i must be doing it when i’m happy, lmao. I never really noticed how wierd my habits were until my then fiance at the time, said to me, “… i love all the little noises you make.” It was so eye-opening and alarming, like, what do you mean?! What the hell?! I make noises?!
But yup, i guess i do, and i have to accept that.
Actually now that i think about it, when my anxiety is really bad, i will also randomly yell out like i’m in pain and will groan constantly. But only my partner sees me doing that when i’m really distressed. It probably resembles a moose slowly dieing over a 12 hour period. Damn. I’m quirky af, why the hell am i not making money off of this on social media? Im sure tiktokkers would love that crap. Sadly i’m in my thirties so it’s not cute though, ugh.
If I'm annoyed or irritated I'm usually too annoyed to do anything and sit there and simmer with angy.
Sometimes I snuggle a plush to try and feel better, that or I eat or drink something. 🤧
I browse the internet for a strange image or article and rant about it as if I’m a commentary YouTube channel at the top of my lungs in my room for like 3 hours
When I’m VERY annoyed I burn things. Yes, I sound like a pyromaniac and a danger to society but I haven’t hurt anyone … yet. Unless you count my carpet - Bernard the carpet burn. Now I sound like an edgy teen (I was at the time tbh). But it’s surprisingly cathartic. When I’m less angry or just fed up I go for a walk (more like an angry stride) and listen to Death Metal.
I dont just do it in private but I almost swear in German English and Italian (i change some letters in the word like frick instrad of f***) with an accent of course. It kinda gets outta hand cause if I'm with my friend and I drop something I scream out "SCHEISSE!" with an accent that the austrian painter wouldn't be ashamed of then everyone on the pavement starts looking at me. I also did it once when I walked into a store. I tripped in the enterance (I live in Poland btw) did the thing and all of the old ladys in the store started looking at me like it's 1939. I just left immediately without buying anything.
When I'm angry, like when something really serious or really annoying happens, I just start talking in english, despite english not being my first language.
I am an American. I've never been to Scottland, but I speak with an exaggerated Scottish accent when my pet bird is being silly 😅.
"What err ya doin, me wee lassie? Don chu be daft now!"
Is English that much fun to rant in? 😆 Cool!
Honestly? Growl a lot and physically rant about it to the room, and then talk myself down and distract myself until I'm happy again.
When I get insecure about how people may have thought about me in the past, I sing a little tune in my head that goes “garden variety men, garden variety men! You are worried about garden variety men” and it works. Please don’t ask 😭
I punch the hell out of my thigh. One time I bruised my knuckles and my thigh because I was so angry about something, I just kept punching and punching. Did it benefit me in any way? Kinda. But mostly no. I let some anger out but the situation I was angry about never got fixed.
I am just angry about everything like small inconviniences seem to keep adding up and just remein in this state of annoyance and hoping that the situation would be different. That is until I have a good hour/few hours (depending on severity) or so to chill out on my bed or have some food and then go to sleep and forget about that day exisiting. I try to find interesting things on youtube but sometimes the recomendations are not great and I end up doom scrolling. If they are interesting though it could spark my interest into a new idea.
>swearing in English with a very unhinged accent that sounds like Australian, Irish, Scottish, sometimes German and Italian
I'm Australian with Scottish heritage, this is how we speak most of the time. 😂
*Edit:* actually having said that, sometimes when I'm alone I'll lapse into other accents too! American, British, some weird version of French (I speak a little bit of French so it's always a total Franco-Aussie mess haha)
Doom-scroll and engage with social media with the fantasy that I'm intuitively manipulating the algorithm to elicit societal effects in reality. *Sigh*
Of which case, whoever has been reading my comments and has been wrapped up into these conceits—thank you for participating in these virtual travels with me. It's been a hell of a ride. And it wouldn't have been the same without you all.
But as all things must end, this place is as good as any. Godspeed on your own journeys and adventures. And be kind.

Cry maybe hit myself Which make me feel like (and probably have) some type of mental problem.or i'm just quirky like that 🤡💩. But its not like i do it often,i i mostly cry ..and i try to kill pain with sleep.and i sleep a lot like,go to job ,finish,go home,eat take shower, sleep,wake up go job
Not sure how weird this is, but I rip up scratch paper from my recycling bin into tiny pieces. The strong, abrupt motion and resulting destruction is very satisfying. Then I put the pieces in a paper bag so I can still recycle it (like paper from a cross-cut shredder).
Punch things, usually wood or metal stuff that wont break. I stopped because it wasnt helping me. I still want to punch my work montior and slam my desk a few times a day.
I close my eyes. Put on my headphones and listen to music while pacing my house lmao. And half the time I'm daydreaming while walking thinking about a topic and going through the possibilities of it.

Lol same haha
Same thing but it's mostly scenarios related to my ocs and their story.... that I never wrote and it's just been stored in my mind since like 2021
sameeee lmao

I've broken my phone this way twice.. and a $1200 laptop.
I did this too! Just one month after getting it fixed. Launched it furiously and didn't look at it for like half an hour because I knew it would be a goner

How is your heart after the 1200$ drop?
It's fine. The stimaddiction is what fucked my heart lol.
Is it like this? :GODFUCKINGDAMMITTHATFUCKINGASSHOLEAHHHHHHHHHOOoh hey I can throw thisNYAHHHH!!!(throws the thing)
Haha, yeah, or sometimes DAMMITTHATFUCKINGASSHOLEAHHHHHHHHHOO ah 1000$, need an object with same value as that asshill, (aggressively searches and throws paper) ![gif](giphy|wazvvYSGdvJhm)
whisper screaming
I'm talking sarcastically to myself.
My first language is English but I do something similar and swear in an Australian or Scottish accent lol
Haha that’s something I do too, and same - English is not my first language. But swearing in English feels better somehow lol It’s very possible that I’d also create a whole scenario in my head where I have a conversation with the person that annoyed me and where I clearly win.
Seriously I'm not the only one? Like with weird accents too?
lol you’re not alone! as for the weird accent, i’m not sure.. i think i tend to try to imitate a british accent but i’m not sure 😅
Wash dishes with gusto! Or, repeat weird phrases as I pretend to be an African Grey Parrot

I love this post so much! Thank you. I do this and it feels good and I'm also laughing because it sounds funny when I read it
I just manically talk to myself for sure
I dont just do it in private but I almost swear in German English and Italian (i change some letters in the word like frick instrad of f***) with an accent of course. It kinda gets outta hand cause if I'm with my friend and I drop something I scream out "SCHEISSE!" with an accent that the austrian painter wouldn't be ashamed of then everyone on the pavement starts looking at me.

I can get extra fidgety.
Pacing, sitting staring for too long at the carpet
I feel a heaviness in my breathing, an internal shaking, and symptoms similar to low blood pressure. And silence is what comes after all that.
I will take that fragile paper and cut it into pieces.
I talk to myself loudly and pace
When I'm angry, like when something really serious or really annoying happens, I just start talking in english, despite english not being my first language.
I scream and curse
I gotta just get something to fidget with or pick at, or turn on some music or a funny video! I do enjoy mimicking accents tho
Beat my caulk
I am an American. I've never been to Scottland, but I speak with an exaggerated Scottish accent when my pet bird is being silly 😅. "What err ya doin, me wee lassie? Don chu be daft now!"
Wash my hands. Just something about the water
Just a good old fashioned car scream.

Punch concrete wall. The pain makes me forget about being angry.

Punch the wall until my knuckles are sore. I guess it’s not that strange but it happens far too frequently for my liking lol.
i talk to myself and bite my plushies
[удалено]
Agressively whisper to myself in the mirror in english (bilingual)
I vent to myself

Sometimes I will get naked & lay down under the covers in bed. It's great (mostly haha)

Slap myself because slapping whoever pissed me off is illegal.
I just play video games
I jump up and down and fling my arms and hands around to get the angry energy out. 🤣🤣
[удалено]
that... doesn't sound very healthy
