Anger...the worst expression!!!

Rush, discard, shove, tug, internal murmurs, and so on—all due to that five-letter word that caused our minds to explode like a volcano. If we add a 'D' before anger, we get 'Danger,' which means that anger is actually a danger not only to oneself but also to the people surrounding us.

Anger leaves no one out. Anger and its various causes are different for people of different age groups. Children may be angry because of more homework, not getting something they had asked for, and so on. Adults may be angry because of workload, tension, stress, etc. Elderly people may be angry if people do not follow their instructions to work in a certain way. As a result, we all show our anger to each other as every cause has an effect.

Just like love, anger is blind too. The difference is, instead of the heart, here, the mind gets out of control. Then whether it be our parents, friends, kids or our spouse, nobody gets saved from our bout of anger. Anger makes us say things that we won't otherwise say to our loved ones. But the spell of anger is such that no one is able to act in control. It takes away the control from one's mind.

Anger is amongst the basic human emotions. It is a state that causes a person to become the fire. Although, anger is basically perceived as the 'bad' emotion it isn't though all the time. Sometimes it comes out to be helpful. For example, if some child is being rude to some elder , their parent can get angry and tell them to not do so but doing it so in a polite way or say a patient way would be better. Articulation of anger is what one should do, which involves expressing anger in a healthy and constructive manner, rather than suppressing it or expressing it aggressively. The aim should be to convey anger in a way that accomplishes its intended purpose, rather than provoking anger in the other person.

It is a part of every human and we should accept it. Acceptance is the first key to getting better. Suppressing anger is no solution because it will come out in other ways. Understanding the reasons behind our anger, identifying its triggers, and gaining self-awareness when faced with anger are crucial steps in determining whether anger is necessary in a situation and how it can be prevented initially.

The guilt we feel after directing our anger at someone is genuine. Often, when we lash out, it's not our true intention. Additionally, anger tends to harm us the most.  It's crucial to find healthier ways to express anger to avoid self-harm or damaging important relationships.

Some of the ways to tame your anger are:

• Deep breathing

• Counting to ten

• Distracting yourself

• Thinking before you speak (Taking a pause)

• Taking a time-out to calm down

• Closing your eyes and focusing on your breath or heartbeat

Stay calm for your own sake more than for anyone else's when you're angry. Choose yourself and your peace.
