It's completely normal to feel angry sometimes. But it's how we deal with that anger that's important
Being unable to control anger is dangerous and can result in heart attacks, strokes, high cholesterol levels and of course, getting punched in the face.
So why do people feel anger?
There are loads of different reasons - everybody gets stressed out and angry about different things.
What can I do to keep my anger under control?
- Recognise when you're starting to feel angry or days when you feel particularly on edge or ready for a fight. Learn to deal with it by doing something chilled that you enjoy like listening to music or reading a magazine.
- Do some exercise - getting those legs pumping with a few laps around the park will get your heart rate up which is a great stress buster
- Give up the alcohol, cigarettes and drugs as these can make us more edgy.
- Learn to accept the things that make you angry. Force yourself to move away from a situation that you know will land you in trouble.
