how can i control my temper and not hurt people verbally?
December 28th, 2008 by adminalthough i always try to be considerate of people's feelings, sometimes im not and most of the time it is because of my quick temper…any suggestions how to control what you say before its too late to take back?
I would really appreciate non judgemental answers…
take a moment back when you feel like you're getting angry and relax, breathing helps too, and instead of just saying things out without first thinking of it, don't ….just wait and think before you speak, it'll give u a moment to relax even for a sec, and that should help, if not walk away , move away from the situation, or kindly tell the person that you will make no comments on the matter because you want to refrain from saying or doing something that will be harmful to the other person.Good luck!

dear sharp tongue, the best way i know is to count to ten, before you open your mouth, and very very sure that your brain is in gear. it helps.

Think of that person as someone you love.
Would you want someone to talk to someone you love like that?
Probably not…..so stop doing it.

You can if you want, but you do not want to control your temper because you see no benefit from those you deal with. Would you lose your temper if you you are going to sell a million dollar item to very rich lady and make good commission. So please write what you want to say or what you said and correct your wordings

Just ask yourself, is your lack of self-control worth being alone for the rest of your life.
If you don't want to end up alone like an ogre than by all means make the steps to CHANGE!
If you don't have any apathy, then keep being who you are, and hopefully you won't have any children during your selfish life.

well, if u get very angry, before u say anything, leave the room and go to a quiet place, like a bathroom, take a few deep breaths.. have water, count to 20 slowly.. and then go back..

1st- u should take a deep breath and LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE! Sure cussing someone out might feel good NOW- but in the long run … will it? MY ADVISE IS. "THINK IT" give 'em the tongue lashing of there life IN YOU MIND - then edit it in a way you could repeat in a NICE WAY
PS- ya KNOW this is in the Family & Relationships > Marriage & Divorce - section are you married ? or planning on geting a divore?
