    I go for a drive. The more frustrated I am, the faster I drive (within safe bounds)

      Please try to find a different way to vent. I can see how that may feel satisfying, but driving any kind of vehicle when stressed or in an emotional situation can be highly dangerous - for you and everyone else involved.

      If hormone levels are high we’re unfortunately not always able to assess risks and our abilities correctly and won’t be as focused as required.

        I think context matters too. When I lived in the Midwest I could go on a long drive in the country and it would help me relax and cool down.

        Having lived in LA for 10+ years now though, driving while angry leads to very bad road rage (at least for me).
