From MY experience, I prefer to just calm down, and take a HUGE BREATH. For example, let's say you are a child, and are having problems with your mother always yelling at you for no reason, or something like that, (Totally not an example of me or anyone I know) I would, (I MEAN THEY WOULD) probably get angry, and start to yell back. But insted of doing that, I would stop mid-scream and think to myself "It's not worth it." and just take a HUGE BREATH. And then proceedby agreeing with everything she said. This is a long example I know, but you can shorten it, or put it in your own words if neccessary. Hope I helped!
