It really depends on the source of your annoyance. My suggestion for now would be to try to push whatever it is irritating you out of your mind and do something you really enjoy. Once you've relaxed , you'll be able to assess the situation properly and this should make it easier to find a solution to what is annoying you.

Venting...ahh...one of the great pleasures in life..When I need to vent I usually find a good friend and pretty much ramble on for about an hour, after that I realize I am overreacting and I calm down. Hitting a pillow is always nice too.

It depends why you're annoyed, but generally scream, kick something or distract yourself. When somebody (rather than something) annoys me, to the point where I want to cry with frustration and annoyance, I say to myself 'I forgive you'. (Meaning I forgive the person who annoyed me). That sounds preachy, I know, but it works. Eventually you stopped feeling annoyed with the person. That's if the something that annoyed you was important enough to keep on annoying you for several weeks. It takes several weeks of telling yourself you forgive the person for it to actually work. Other times when I'm annoyed, I clean the kitchen. There are lots of things in there that you can bang, clatter and scrub hard without breaking. Last time I was annoyed, I scrubbed the kitchen table. I threw a mop bucketful of hot water over it, squirted LOTS of washing up liquid and bleach on it, and then used a scrubbing brush to scrub it. If your kitchen/dining room is small though, I wouldn't recommend this, because you might flood the room. Don't do it if you have a carpeted or laminate floor either. Playing loud music is good, the loudness sometimes helps to take away your annoyance. You can't get much better than playing loud music whilst scrubbing the kitchen table :). (But given that you live in England, and it's roughly 8 o'clock when you asked the question, I wouldn't play loud music on the stereo just now, a personal music player would be a better idea. Or you might annoy your neighbours!) If you're annoyed because the dog ate an essay for school that you've spent a week writing (or similar), I wouldn't bother wasting time with any of the above, I'd just start writing it again. Email or phone someone and vent your anger. Do it to me if you want, just don't send me a virus, then I'd be extremely annoyed.

Fantasy can help, in the same way it helped that Ally McBeal woman. Imagine the source of your annoyance having terrible and excruciating things done to them/it. If it is a person you can imagine all the deplorable cruelties you wish to visit upon them. Around this time it is acceptable to allow a slow smile spread across your face, as that will start to annoy them and make them wonder exactly what you are thinking. Once you've got under their skin that way then you have even more to smile about. The annoyance will have left you.

Talk out the issue with the one that has annoyed you. If that doesn't help, kick their butt and you'll feel much better...assuming you win the butt kick of course!

smile as big as you can. it is very difficult to be misserable when you have a big smile on your face. you might look funny for a while but you will feel better!

Well definetely don't throw your $60 geography book to the ground, tearing the binding from the book. And definetely don't grab the nearest breakable, which happens to be a stack of ceramic coasters, and send them hurdling to the ground with great force never to be the same again, seeing as they've been reduced to hundreds of pieces. Besides avoiding text books and coasters I would get a giant roll of bubble wrap. Bubble wrap is always the answer.

Recycle! Seriously, there's not much better than smashing bottles in the bottle bank and imagining you're doing it over some idiots head to make you feel better. and you'll be helping the environment while you do it :¬)

I'd say get your mind off of the annoyance. Participate in something you truly enjoy. For me I'd play sports or workout.

Remember not to take yourself too seriously. Make a face in the mirror or something.

Find a girlfriend. EDIT: BOYFRIEND Sorry, i had suspected otherwise.
