How can you control from laughing at something?

Question

for example I've heard biting your tongue can help what are some others that work?

Answer 1

Often laughter bubbles up spontaneously. You form your own sense of humor around age four. I once got a job because I said the most important quality in my new boss is a sense of humor. Hired. Nothing is so sacred that it won't benefit from a poke in the ribs....

Answer 2

If it is nervous laughter you are referring to I can suggest some options. Focus on what a person is wearing, in minute detail, until the moment has passed. Focus on putting your hands behind your back and pressing thumbs together. Keep eye contact - they expect you to look at them - and concentrate on trying to figure out why they are making an issue out of something.

Any other type of laughter - enjoy! I hope I have touched on the problem for you & given you some ideas. Best wishes. UK
