Workout usually will just make me more angry.
Meditation/music can only help when you are not at the edge point.
Talk to people helps. But one person can only bear with you for so much. Even though it is a good friend/love you very much.
Even tried chatbot. Again, not working when at the edge point.
If you wrote it all down, do you think it would make logical sense?
Sometimes I'm just over emotional. Sometimes the place I'm working isn't a good fit. If it's not a good fit, I also find that my emotions get out of control as well.
If things are building, figure out what is building them and try to change that. Little things can make someone crazy for a few days, but if it's every day, it might be depression or burnout. If your stress never goes away and just keeps building on itself, it's likely depression or burnout.
Talking to a professional might help, very least it feels like you are taking action to make it better. They might be able to help you frame and understand what is bothering you.
You might also try working on this nutritionally. I have recently had good results with upping my consumption of vitamin C to get excess anger under control.
I don't think music will be particularly helpful, but meditation, specifically mindfulness meditation, will be most effective when you are at the edge. Try practicing for 10 minutes a day, and then when you are on the edge try your best to really feel the stress and experience it. Your goal is to build your tolerance to it, which you can only do by not running from it. It's just like working out: you need to practice and you'll get stronger. The 10 minutes a day of practice when you're not on the edge will help you build up to being able to be truly present when you are on the edge.
