Anger isn’t a good feeling. Anger may make us feel uncomfortable, but it’s also normal. Unluckily, many of us have been used to keeping our feelings hidden. Research suggests that this can have long-term bad influence on our health.
Is it better to cry or break things whenever something makes us angry The research points out that when we show our anger in this way, we probably can’t get on well with our friends and our family. The more time we keep being angry, the worse result we’ll get. So how can we deal with our angry feelings in a right way
First, know what makes us angry. Anger is often caused by feelings of fear, disappointment and so on. Second, pay more attention to those everyday things that will make us angry.
One way of dealing with anger is to talk about it. The study has shown that if we name our feelings, we can actually calm ourselves down and feel better.
Do some controlled breathing or find some physical activities. Exercise helps with feelings of anger.
