How to Control Your Emotions

Keep your head up. Literally. If you were told there was a depressed person in the next room, what would you imagine? Are they sitting in the corner, slumped over, with a lost look on their face? Are they not moving much? Probably. Moods manifest physically -- change your physicality, change your mood. Go for a walk. Alright, that's sort of metaphorical. But what that means is to control an emotion, control your environment. Get out and do something else. If you feel yourself festering, get up and surround yourself with different stimuli. You're literally forcing your brain to take in distractions. Meditate. For a long time, meditation has been known to quiet the outside world and calm the senses. It clears your mind and helps attention and focus even when you're not meditating. But it also quiets negative thoughts and centers you externally, not internally.

Start the day in a positive way. Nobody wakes up and thinks, "Today I'm going to have a really awful day." Most people wake up and don't even think about the day ahead. Try this: "Today is going to be a good day!" This way, you start the day having a positive outlook on life. Try being as nice and positive to everybody and set yourself simple little tasks during the day. For example, "Today, I shall eat five pieces of healthy fruit or vegetables" or "I shall smile at that boy or girl I have liked for ages." Meeting your goals even if they're tiny can give you a sense of fulfillment and, better yet, control.

Confident, happy people walk with their shoulders back and their heads high. Do they make a conscious decision to do this? No. It's all wired together. So get up, look up, and move around -- your mind will start listening to your body and not the other way around.
Think about working out. How often do you hear of someone going for a run to help their bad mood? All the time. Again, let your body do the talking. The endorphin rush will blast that mood away.

I will be patient as much as I can.
I will leave from the thing or person that makes me mad.
I will stay alone or look for other thing to do.
