Letting it out

As human beings, we are all prone to a wide variety of emotions: Anger, Rage, Hurt, Disgust, Frustration, Grief etc.

No matter how stoic you may be, you still get to feel at least one of these emotions occasionally.
So my question is this. How do you let these emotions out?
Some people scream,shout,fight, resort to violence, box, go for a run or some other physically exerting activity, write, cry , have sex or  withdraw into themselves for a while.

There are some cab drivers or bank attendants that ehn! It is so easy to know that they are frustrated because of the way they lash out.
You start wondering why they didn't sort out their issues before resuming work that day.

Now, as for me, crying is a natural outlet for me especially when it comes to grief or loss.
But when it comes to hurt, i am unlikely to show any emotion.

Concerning anger, i used to be this cool, and calm character. Nothing fazed me but suddenly i noticed that lately  i have very low tolerance level and get angry  easily. That's not such a good thing so i am learning to control it.
However I do notice that when i let it out its easier to move on. But when i keep it inside, it simmers steadily then erupts.
If i am disgusted, no poker face for that one oh. You will know immediately. I can't just pretend.

Rage is when i am deathly quiet. Those who know me well know enough to stay away until i calm down. If you as much as touch me or utter a statement during this brief period, Hmmmmm! Lemme not talk further. Rage however isn't something I feel often.

In short ehn! The good thing is that it takes a while before i feel any of this emotions. In my opinion it shouldn't be an everyday thing. Or what do you guys think?

I worry for people who don't let out their emotions,keeping it in and  bottling it in for a long time.
Some are afraid to show any sign of vulnerability.

Then one day they explode.

And it's like a volcano.
The person at the end of the tirade is usually bewildered. Like Wtf? What on earth did  i do?
Not comprehending that months and years of suppressed emotions are suddenly being let out.

It even has bad endings sometimes. In some cases, abused women suddenly reach their limit and kill their partners, victims of sexual abuse suddenly snap and kill their abusers because they couldn't take it any more.

So! lets talk.
How do you let out the emotions you feel.
Are you a screamer and all is well?
Or you plot revenge quietly?
Do you punch the wall,cry or run?
Or you have a great poker face?
