Talking Building anger

By the time I was able to try and walk and stretch it off I was taut enough Jack Lalane would be impressed. I pulled the chute, leaving a half day. I crawled onto my chair/ottoman combo and set about reading, Quiet by Susan Cain. Nap time followed after a few chapters

What are sone favored coping techniques, if your symptoms flare during stress. Walking and stretching usually are a quarter hour affair. If I get locked in at a desk for too long the trouble brews.

Thanks,
Jon
When the anger builds and stress comes on I try to find a quiet place(bathroom) and sit and concentrate on filling my lungs through my nose and exhaling by mouth. The trick is to block out everything that your mind throws at you and focus only on the sensations of breathing. Even if this does not help, there will be no grainy cell phone footage of you doing something to make the local 6:00pm news. Good Luck, Ken in Texas.
