Stop being mad before you do something stupid

I'm a bit mad at someone at the moment and this is how I stopped being so overreacty last night.

In no particular order other than how I remember them:
- Call/talk to someone and bitch about whatever you're mad at for a bit.
- Ask above person if you're being unreasonable.
- Write down why you're mad at this person/situation or what happened around you being mad.
- If you've hand written it, throw it away - seriously, do this or else you'll do something you will regret...
- If you've typed it, delete the document. You want no record of this being written.
- Listen to some heavy metal and rock out really hardcore.
- If the above makes you angrier, listen to some music you really like or know the words to and rock out to that
- If writing about what happened didn't leave you as not angry as you were wanting, write a numbered list of reasons why you're pissed about everything - as in, everything in your whole life. Then write a list of numbered reasons why your life is great. You have to get more good things than bad things. - this will make you realise that you're being ridiculous for being mad when all this other shit is good and also make you realise how good you've got it.
- Have a shower/bath and do all the deep conditioning hair, exfoliating, shaving, face mask stuff. - that one's more aimed at the gals...
- Go for a run or swim or whatever kind of somewhat intense exercise you like to do and push yourself.
- Go to sleep. Either have a nap if you're blessed with that skill (I am incapable of taking naps) or if it's night, go to bed early.
- If all else fails, go out and buy yourself something pretty.

I hope you guys found this interesting/useful. See yas laters.
