Hey readers!
First of all anger is an aggressive emotion expressed to someone. Anger is a bad thing but sometimes it can be a good thing too. It is mainly caused because of stress. Anger can give you a way to express negative feelings, for example, or motivate you to find solutions to problems. The main problem is if you get angry very easily to the extent it may cause a great chaos. It may even cause relationship problems; it may affect your working life. It is a very dangerous part of your life. Anger can destroy all your relationships. Anger first destroys yourself then someone else. It might also affect your quality of life. Anger is an integral part of the body’s “fight, flight, or freeze” system, which helps protect us from threats or danger.
However, high levels of unresolved anger may have a negative impact on health. So anger can not only damage your mental health but also your physical health. It may cause some diseases like: headache, insomnia, heart attacks, digestion problems and even skin problems.
So there are ways to reduce your anger. It can be controlled by yourself if you follow the following tips:
- Think before you speak.
- Calm yourself down by breathing slowly and then expressing your anger. It may reduce the impact.
- Doing some exercise may help you control your anger.
- Give yourself short breaks during times of the day that tend to be stressful.
- Instead of focusing on what made you mad, work on resolving the issue at hand.
- Remind yourself that anger won’t fix anything and might only make it worse.
- Listening to music is one of the best ways of getting rid of your uncontrollable anger.
- Do things that make you happy instead of making yourself feel irritated because of the thoughts?
“If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow”
-Chinese proverb.
Sometimes anger makes you motivated but not all the time, sometimes it can make you evil. Anger when left unchecked leads to hurt feelings, a lack of understanding, and in the worst cases physical and emotional harm. Learning to control anger is a challenge for everyone at times. Seek help for anger issues if your anger seems out of control, causing you to do things you regret. Control your anger to control your life.
