Hey lads as always i am asking a weird question. How do you deal with your anger? Are you naturally an angry person? Can i be angry and still be happy? Do you think anger is normal for a male? Can we use our anger for good?
I am asking here on here BLF because its mostly males on here. Also i want opinion from different cultures.
I try not to be angry , I was angry once soon a time
Met my wife and no long angry , she calms me down
My kids calm me down
Or then I go fishing !

I just whip out the good old bamboo pipe..." Houston Runway Clear.... Prepare For Take Off Runway 3 On Approach!"
Use it.
Punch bag or training is great.
Or some other physical exertion.
You can train your mind to react differently to situations which provoke a natural emotional response.
Beware of the luvvies that tell you different though, it’s perfectly natural for a male to do some stuff with a slight amount of aggression.
I don’t mean smashing things or losing it but channeled determination.
Happiness? You might be happier if you think about the cause of your anger.
The question is always why?. Go from there.
Or you could just get stoned. 
Thanks for all the honest answers.
Gym is a great way to get out excess aggression but it some times adds to the problem well at least with me.
As for smoko i don’t do to well with the green gunjah. Some times it trips me out but other times im fine its weird.
when i was younger i done my far share of mdma and base and caps even acid probably part of the problem lol but for some reason smoking i find worse mentally. Well its not as tripped as the acid. I was in bed and i felt like i was floating on a cloud hahaha.
Workout at the gym. Do chores around the house. Play a sport.
-Exercise
- Communication- Talk to trusted friends about what is bothering me.
- Get frisky with my girlfriend!
- Prayer and meditation
But seriously, I find that by sweating, it helps me. Then I go on the threadmill and stationary bike at the local community Centre. Also I try to pause briefly and vision why there’s anger. Is the other person late cuz he cut me off? Am I rushing at a problem because I’m tired? I think the key for me is when I freeze and look ahead and analyze the situation. Kinda like time travel. 
We do what works.
If getting angry solves your problems without creating new ones then it is an appropriate strategy. Observation has shown me that is seldom the case except for extreme life/death situations.
If people are raised in an environment that rewards them when they get angry they may carry that through life. I’ve seen it in coworkers over the years. Wife and I never rewarded anger or tantrums with our kids, we’d just laugh at them or ignore them. Never had terrible twos, they are remarkably stable teens now. If you find that you use anger a lot in your life it may be a behavior that was, without bad intent, instilled into you during your formative years.
My own anger response has turned into just a defeated sigh because it has never once helped me in anything besides life-threatening situations. The pattern is unmistakable.
Think of it as the Hulk, and if you can, at the moment of anger, think “Do I really need to bring out the Hulk for this situation?”. If not, then save this emotional tool for when it’s needed.
Sleep
Cycling
BLF

I used to struggle with anger, now I struggle with depression. I’m not sure I made the right moves for myself necessarily, but being sad seems way more socially acceptable than being angry. I don’t support this, but accept that it’s true, at least where I live in the world.
It’s a goal (functionally a requirement) that I learn how to readjust my emotional responses again in life so that I can achieve my potential. My current behaviors/cycles/tendencies are NOT tuned for a health and success long-term. Purely survival mode most days… I feel like I was way more alive and happy when I allowed myself to get angry, so take that for what it’s worth…
Whatever happens, stay calm. Don’t do anything stupid!
I stopped working which greatly reduced my stress level. Having a new grand-daughter also helps although that is clearly outside of my ability to control
Like mentioned above, get yourself a punching bag or a makiwara board, they are small and easy to put anywhere. I have has anger issues all my life (52 years old now) and a good workout does wonders. If things get really bad I head out into the Nevada desert and do hardcore shooting drills, that always works great because I can focus all that raw energy into training and it teaches me to center myself. Most of the time I have no clue why I’m angry but when I feel it coming on I head outdoors. I like hunting for minerals and beating a rock hammer on mineral bearing stones, works great plus I love offroading. Find what works for you without hurting yourself because its not worth it and go at it hard! Good luck and play hard.
Going for a ride up the mountain with the trusty motorbike always helps. Avoiding religion and politics always helps too.
Hop on my bicycle and zip off, pedaling hard and fast enough to rival cars and motorcycles on low gear. Anger helps me exert myself, and the exertion gets me stoked.
Any demanding physical activity works as long as I break a sweat, but the bike is queen among them.
Anger is an emotion. It is neither wrong nor right, it’s just how you feel.
What you do with your anger is a different story. A good friend once said, “your emotions should never be in the driver’s seat, but it’s often helpful to have them help navigate.” Here are some things to try:
How do I deal with my anger? 12 Steps.
Self-obsession is the core of my anger. I went from excessive unhealthy anger to routine anger by taking spiritual action. The miracle continues by my continuing to be spiritually purposed.
My approach is straight from the Bible:
“If thine brother offend thee, pluck out his eye.”
(A letter from Paul to the Cardassians, I think.)
With these…
And in the end,it is consumed and turned into serenety…
