Anger used to tear us apart, now, we have learned to control it for the most part.
Early in life I took it out on the court. Later I would just let it out in a gym or something physical or suppress it. Now I identify what is making me angry. Then attack the base of it rather than collateral. If I'm really angry at the moment I have punched something extremely hard. But that was pure anger that needed release.
I usually find someone I trust and vent to them about what I'm angry about and then I can move past it. Sometimes, especially with my partner I may hold my emotions in and try not to let it be known but it usually surfaces eventually which I realize is not fair to him. Sometimes, I let it be known to him when I'm angry with words and this rarely goes well because he never likes to disappoint me.
Either bottle it up until I explode or letting it out on people who are close to me
I usually handle very well. I'm very laid back person and most of time I hold it in and is not good. Cause it has come out and caused me to look like a fool
I used to express it outward more and lose my temper but now I have a bad habit of internalizing it and just getting down
I cannot control it well enough. It has caused many problems

control your breathe and think about consequences if you let the anger controls u
I could be better. If I'm stressed or have a lot going on I can snap and the get frustrated with myself. An I worry about how I handle anger when I'm talking to my kids thankfully my other half keeps me grounded and calm.
I am a yeller. And I get short.
Me no. I have a good amount of patients which helps. And never let my anger get out of control. And no it's never been problem in my life. It's to much work
Depends on what made me angry. If I'm so naughty I'm hurt, I have to take time to process before I react or respond. But if it's simply something that is making me upset I can talk through immediately. But I do have to confront it because I can't leave thing unresolved.

always talk about things that makes you angry, helps the relationship grow
I sadly let it build up. When it's built up too much I just cry.
I have never been a super angry or agitated person. It takes a lot to make me go off. When I do though it usually isn't fun lol. I handle by trying to laugh at it & try to realize what is really going on.
When I'm really angry I like to hit. I've punched a few walls. I haven't actually hit anyone beside my brother. I don't get that angry often though.
