So I am having a really tough semester, ladies. No matter how positive I try to be, everything seems to go wrong. My car wouldn't start when I had to go to work last week. My boyfriend was a total jerk to me tonight. I'm falling behind on weight loss. I have way too much to do. A teacher who told me he was teaching a class next semester inspired me to double major and get two degrees in the spring and now he's not teaching that class. Etc. I would say that at least 85% of it is out of my control.
And no matter how happy and positive I try to be each day, it seems I become extremely angry at least once a week now over something that happens that's out of my control (or occasionally something I caused myself). I am not used to this as I am usually a positive, happy person, so I was wondering how do you deal with anger? So far, my only ways have been venting to family and friends, yelling at the person if it's a person I'm angry at, and eating, which of course sets me back in my weight loss goals.
I need better ways to deal with this anger since apparently it is going to keep happening. Ideas?
