Ask yourself if getting mad actually helps the situation. Is it going to get the problem solved any quicker? Does it make you feel any better? No? Then what's the point of it?
My problem is that it is primal for me. I get the thought, but in the moment, the reptilian brain takes over and I get mad, even though it lasts a few seconds.
Trying to catch myself when it happens, but it's pretty fucking hard.
