we've been doing this for over 20 years, but there missing a very important part, its not just releasing your rage which is also very important. If you connect it with a trauma, by doing a regression first. Then you'll have the release and healing needed.

Rage rooms do not work as real therapy.<br>They give you a quick release for anger and a rush of feel-good chemicals.<br>The problem is that smashing things trains your brain to act that way around real people. It can lead to hurting someone or wrecking your own home because breaking things starts to feel normal.<br><br>Other potential therapy like magic mushrooms which can help, but kept under lock and key in fact we grow the active ingredient in the UK to send legal countries for their patients

Business owners laughing their way to the bank with this. There are less destructive, and more prosocial outlets. If destruction or simulated violence is truly needed, go join a martial arts class or hit a punching bag. This is also not great for the environment and the respiratory health of participants: (1) these items (esp the consumer electronics) should disposed of safely and ecoresponsibly, but instead the polluting components are being smashed beyond recycling or containment and are probably disposed of haphazardly, and (2) generating fine particles of dust from smashing and increased respiration is a bad combo

This is the dumb. They paid to do this? Go for a jog or clean your house. What a waste. If anything this trains people to be violent to get some dopamine. I hope you are properly disposing of this electronics you cant just put that in a landfill.

No. You just become more angry. People need to learn to calm down.

Can you imagine this same story, but with men in the rage room? I doubt the tenor of the journalist would be the same. 🤔

I&#39;m just not that angry. I&#39;d rather rage clean or rage workout, maybe rage paint. What a waste of time, energy and money. This doesn&#39;t make sense to me.

Who cares. At 11am on remembrance Sunday there was a minute silence for fallen British war hero&#39;s. The Scottish government decided to dedicate that exact time to talk about foreign countries. And this happened because the British are no longer in charge of their government.

I mean, I think it could be an important first step to therapy. Release the emotions, then process what happened with a professional, and get to the root of the rage. Make a plan for next steps.

I&#39;ve said to my sister about doing this for years, especially since entering perimenopause and also coping with grief. If I got in there, it&#39;d be left in smithereens! 🤣🤣🤣I don&#39;t think it&#39;s a case of either or, it&#39;s just another tool and an extremely helpful and possibly life-saving one.A final thought, as was mentioned in the video men have places to shout and get all their frustrations out and so it&#39;s about time women were &#39;allowed&#39; to express the same emotions, just as it&#39;s equally important for men to open up and talk about their feelings so they don&#39;t unalive themselves.I think it&#39;s n ace idea. You have a safe space where no one will judge you, you go and let rip and know it&#39;s for a certain amount of time and you leave feeling lighter and get on with your day.

Not therapy but saves neighbors, friends, boyfriends and husbands.

This is neurologically false therapy: what fires together wires together. This is teaching the brain to break things when experiencing rage, rather than to process the emotion in a healthy way. - That said, it does look fun. Smashy Smashy!

Woow, this is actually a great concept! I could&#39;ve assumed that such a service would exist. After a quick search I see that NL has a number of them throughout the country too. Normally I try to be mindful and I meditate too, as well as journal, reflect, perform introspection, read existential literature and remember the great struggles of the Stoics as a guide to remain calm and centered. That said, this does seem appealing to me to at least visit once!

Without proper supervision and follow-up by a professional, the effect of this therapy is transient<br>For some people, this practice could even have adverse effects, such as insecurity or anxiety<br>Some people may develop rage addiction, which will negatively affect their personal relationships
