What do you do to cope and not go off?

1 Answer

Answer :

I will say yoga but there are times at work when I need a solution right then and there so that I don’t blow up – I go to the bathroom, turn the water on and cry out of frustration. I then stop crying and do deep breathing. After that, I call Alex to vent and that usually helps. I write it all down because you best believe that whoever got me that pissed will get complained about or otherwise thrown revenge at and I need all my facts straight for the time when I will begin my counterattack. After I write it all down, I am calmer.
