Whats your cool down method??? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

ca18_luv · 10-09-2011, 07:40 PM

So im sure each and everyone of us on this forum tends to get angry wether its due to one scenario or another. The big question is how do you calm your self down?

In this thread explain how you calm your self down or try to.

Do you play a sport?
Go driving?
Hit the bar with a couple friends?
Go lowballing on ziliva, etc, etc,?.....

Basically this thread is to point out your method of how to relieve your self of any anger.

I'll start it off.

Basically im pissed for idk why exzactly and its been affecting everything all day especially when i came into work. Every little thing is making me even more pissed.

My method: To cruise the loooong way home on my bike with one headphone playing music. Reason this works for me is ever since i had a license driving has calmed me down and couldnt find anything else to compare to it. The music in one ear usually helps as well so that it gives me something to ride to....no Avenged Sevenfold or anything like that of course lol. So ya cant wait to be off in 20 mins to ride and see if i can calm my self down.

Metal. Or driving. Or drinking.

ILoveMyRHS13 · 10-09-2011, 07:42 PM

Do a burnout.

**Phlip** · 10-09-2011, 07:43 PM

I disconnect, get quiet and have an adult beverage...
or 6

If I remain quiet, the worst thing to do is to push me. I am not one to get all animated or yell or anything like that. I know my physical strength and that my voice can make a room fear for their safety, so my going silent is when people should know they've fucked up.

S14kouki_10 · 10-09-2011, 07:54 PM

exercise, drive, music, SNIP, or just get lost in silence.

tqstarburst · 10-09-2011, 07:57 PM

Go to the gym
go for a cruise
go for some drinks
fuck.

keeeban · 10-09-2011, 08:00 PM

Punching bag, music, or SNIP.

..or all 3.

Matej · 10-09-2011, 08:03 PM

Never lose my cool. I have no emotions.

This, I go find a nice quiet place and tune out. I don't get truely mad easily, yes most of the general population does piss me off from time to time but they aren't worth my time. If my communication ceases with you I'm pissed at you. Its been a long time since I really freaked on anyone, and I feel sorry for the poor person that pushes me to that point.

But when I'm mad, leave me the fuck alone and I'll talk to you when I'm ready.

tqstarburst · 10-09-2011, 08:13 PM

I was kidding. In reality there is certain things where i do go in a rage and tend to want to punch something. Although i realized that if i get more angry for stupid non-sense stuff, it'll get me to no where.
So i try to

1. Stay cool/calm and reflect on the reasons as to why im getting angry.
2.I try to talk it out with someone and look for advice (depending on the situation).

alloverdajoint · 10-09-2011, 08:16 PM

I usually just take my bike and go ride street when I'm pissed, that always takes my mind off everything.
Or I'd just drive the zenki around/try to make random pointless fixes hah ...or I just sleeepp ...zZzZZZzZz

ZenkiKid · 10-09-2011, 08:20 PM

Just like phlip I just disconnect.

Either visit my older sister's grave and just sit there for a while. Or I just find a scenic place and just sit there for a while.

towlie · 10-09-2011, 08:23 PM

Punch shit. Hammer shit. SNIP
Lol

I rarely get that angry tho

JSimpson · 10-09-2011, 08:27 PM

Drift, Drink, Phuck. Not necessarily in that order

SLiDe_WaYz · 10-09-2011, 08:29 PM

Throw wrenches and sockets.

Cook food and not eat it.

Go find a quiet place and sit and chill.

The only thing I ever get mad at is the car tho, I get super heated and super pissed easily when working on the SR.

w0nderbr3ad · 10-09-2011, 08:39 PM

When it comes down to being that angry, I usually pull out the sketchbook and start drawing or pop open zbrush and start sculpting away. Or call out some friends to go to the shooting range and waste a couple boxes of rounds.

tac 1 · 10-09-2011, 08:55 PM

Work on my cars, go to a target range or something physical so Ill be tired then fall asleep.lol

Brian · 10-09-2011, 10:37 PM

Hope that I have a hockey game that night so I can hammer somebody

s14>integra · 10-09-2011, 10:45 PM

I usually just go for a drive. Like a curvy road or something. Turn off the music. Turn off everything and just drive. It's pretty soothing.

BustedS13 · 10-09-2011, 11:00 PM

Batman (1966)
UHF (1989)
masturbate
sleep

initial_jc · 10-09-2011, 11:09 PM

Don't say anything, goto sleep, weights

90hatchie · 10-09-2011, 11:10 PM

give myself one hell of an angry stranger

soreballz · 10-09-2011, 11:11 PM

I usually do one of two things, depending on the situation and my location.
1 - as sOap said, SNIP
2 - listen to some mellow hip hop.
I mix those two if I'm at home.

There's a third option: Put on some fast punk or metal and drive like a madman on country backroads for a few minutes. Buuut, that option is quite risky, and has the potential to make the situation far worse.

Riq · 10-09-2011, 11:15 PM

When I get angry, I simply punt one of my puppies as hard as I possibly can. Soon after I am all smiles

...

DS562 · 10-09-2011, 11:46 PM

i play a little Battlefield
i was really mad that day.

workout
wrestle my dogs (boxer/rottweiler and pitbull/chow)

joshchewuhh · 10-10-2011, 12:07 AM

1.ciggerette
2.beer
3.xbox
4.destroy shit

DataXUnknown · 10-10-2011, 12:10 AM

I don't really do anything to calm me down, I'm constantly busy so I don't have time to get all fired up, but when I do, I just keep doing what I'm doing and something comes along sooner or later and calms me down. In time it all passes.

You sir made me laugh out loud in dead silence in my house right now lmao.

On the other note it seems like alot of us actually do the same things as far as just driving, lifting, keeping to self, and drinking. All of which are cool and work for me except the drinking part. Only have a couple friends that like to just sit down and chill while have a couple selective brews. Most of my friends still only like to binge drink.

I need a 24 hour fitness pass....or make la fitness be open 24 hours -_-
