Being Angry is reflex.
Staying Angry is voluntary.
Why do you think people choose later?
What do you suggest someone in a situation who has chosen to stay angry than to face drama?

So staying angry is not voluntary

su @sunshine30

I think u didnt get my post.
Getting angry and staying angry are 2 different things.
Somebody said somthing that triggered you and u got angry.
But now that u got angry , may be u lashed out at that petson or may be not but you just move on from that anger state. Thats staying angry. Hope i am able to mk u understand this time

Sometimes getting angry happens so much continually
It never felt like there was a break
Like it stayed on n on

su @sunshine30

To correct * you just dont move on

su @sunshine30

Yea u r right on that. That happens too.
That causes like a prolonged anger and u just dnt cm out of it or just dnt want to cm out of it

su @sunshine30

But than what do u do. If u feel the other person is manipulative or will never accurately understand or u will not be able mk understand whats going on, in that case whats ones choice?

I chose to stay away from those
Try being alone so that I don’t lash out on others

I don’t talk to them for certain period
Everyone in my family knows this and are used to it

su @sunshine30

Are you not labeled by certain names like Mad or something? And doesnot it anger you more that they are name calling u and when its their fault they are not even understanding it?

No I don’t really care what they call me
It doesn’t affect
But trigger points do
And for that i like cutting off

su @sunshine30

I so want to but i dnt hv a life outside of home to cut them off. That frustrates me .whatever i do will draw their attention and as soon as they feel i am lightening up they will try to creep in with their drama

su @sunshine30

And rudeness

Just stop giving your attention to their drama
Until things are serious

su @sunshine30

Yea i do the same but mostly i am in my room for that period.and that feel like a trap…more so cz normal days i am very outdoorsy so i feel much more trapped and any move i do will bring more drama
