Answers:
It's an oulet for releasing the unwanted feelings someone is feeling. But for me, when I'm upset, I go shopping! I'll also eat too sometimes instead but i shop more. My hubby said he wished when i got mad at him i would eat instead of shop! It would be cheaper :) But the time my hubby left for his first deployment to Iraq, I ate almost 6 doughnuts! Gross :) I felt a release of feelings though, but then had a stomach ache too! I haven't done that since and he's been to Iraq 3 times.
It doesn't make me feel better. Talking does, or writing.
