Sure.

Biggest bottle of Emotium you can find. Plenty of fluids. Lots of rest as close to a toilet as you can get. Perhaps a Depends type undergarment just in case you don’t make it to the toilet.

In your case I’d also suggest a nearby bucket because you’ve clearly got it coming out both ends. It’ll pass eventually but until then I’d also recommend a pacifier or maybe a butterscotch so you can suck on that instead of blasting your poor family or the internet with whiny vitriol while suffering a bout of emotion incontinence.

If you had ever shut up and gotten over yourself long enough in your youth, you might have heard your mother say something like, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

In your case, once you feel better, start trying out small doses of emotions other than rage every day. Dogs are great help with this. 5 minutes of a rousing game of blanket bunnies and you’ll find yourself smiling with short bursts of air being expelled forcefully out your mouth making a ‘heh heh heh heh” sound.

This is laughter. It’s not harmful, it might be uncomfortable or disconcerting at first if you haven’t used those muscles before but it’s actually very good for you. One could even say it’s emotionally fibrous. A little bit every day will help prevent these bouts of emotional incontinence.

Believe it or not, some emotions can be kind of addictive. If you find yourself looking for rage hits and just can’t seem to stop yourself from butting in and poking the possum in the hopes of a rage hit, may I suggest TA. Trollers Anonymous is a new organization modeled after AlAnon and AA. New groups are growing and being established across multiple internet communities. There’s no judgement. Just support, an effective program, and a sponsor to guide you toward self accountability. Look them up and attend a meeting. You’ll be glad you did.

Happy to help.
