Boy, this is really tacky, but the book "The Miracle of Mindfulness" by Thich Nhat Hanh is a great book for killing stress. Before reading the book, I seldom got mad... And now I get mad even less often!

But on a more pragamtic note, my advice is not to be nostalgic, but look to look forward with a rich, powerful ego ideal (what you strive to become). Last year I took every insult, minor and major with no retaliation. Today, I was walking down the hall and was at a point where it was so crowded I couldn't move forward. This one baboon behind my pushed me and contemptuously snapped, "Move the fuck forward!"

My response was,

"There was no space, asshole!" It certainly wasn't perfect, but now when I see my enemies of last year, I chuckle knowing that their attempts at discouraging me only made me stronger. And truly, I am getting stronger.

Moral of the story:

Be calm and hurt to anger, but never falter in standing up for yourself if you have to choose between capitulation and self-respect.
