As a human being, anger is an unavoidable emotion. It is close to impossible to control other people’s reactions, but how you control your reactions depend entirely on you. George Jean Nathan said, “No man can think clearly when his fists are clenched.” Meaning no person can make the correct decision when they are being driven by their anger. It’s difficult to handle strong emotions, but it takes an even stronger person to learn how.…
Anger is a normal and necessary human emotion but can also have an effect on an individual’s aggressive behaviour. Anger is a person’s response to things such as threats and it can bring strong, aggressive feelings as a defence mechanism when being attacked. When the anger begins to get out of control it can become damaging and this can then lead to continuous challenging behaviour. Being assertive is the healthiest way of dealing with anger; it enables people to suppress their anger and enables them make and meet their needs clearly and without hurting other people. Anger can also be supressed by allowing the person to calm themselves down i.e. walking or focus on positive things, however this can create a person to turn their anger inwards and hurt themselves physically i.e. high blood pressure, depression etc., develop a pessimistic/aggressive personality or even indirectly attack others.…

They based their studies on prison populations. This is also a form of the drive theory and attributes aggression to an impulse created by an inner need whereby frustration causes aggression and this forms a cycle where continued aggression leads to more frustration and then further aggression and onwards Bandura, 1978). In other words, there is need to expel or “catharsis” the frustrations from time to time or this manifest as bursts of aggression. Frustration results from the gap between expectations and achievements (Bandura, 1978). Other researchers have subsequently determined that apart from frustration, other causes exist for aggression. This theory has since been modified to include these factors including tension. In the modified frustration-aggression theory frustration only heightens the susceptibility to aggression (Coakley, 2014, Cox 2007). The frustrated person cannot postpone the urge to aggress or more frustration builds up. This theory does explain the spectrum of aggression seen as the response can vary from assertiveness for less frustration to instrumental aggression and even intention to harm someone or hostile aggression. However, research shows that the mere presence of frustration does not seem to suggest…
Certain families have a low tolerance for revealing undeniable emotions in front of others. With this being said, children are taught that they should not express these emotions at all. Covering up these emotions will result in a possible outburst, or worse. Stress is tremendously related to anger. Healthy stress is considered a motivator, and it is what keeps us focused during the day. “Distress” is a type of stress that causes people to lash out and become irritable. This usually happens when someone is overwhelmed with stress, and it is no longer a motivator.…

In Anger Education, I actually learned a lot about myself that I wasn’t expecting. I learn that are many things that trigger or set off my anger, however that being angry isn’t the bad thing, it’s what I choose to do with it. I learned that an immense anger trigger of mine are situations where I feel disrespected by people that I care about. I learned the real emotion behind my feeling of being disrespected is actually my feelings being hurt and instead of expressing those feelings in a rationale way, I irrationally respond with anger and rage. There are many strategies I learned in class to help me cope with my anger. One strategy I found very useful is to make sure I simply think before I speak. In the heat of the moment I tend to only speak negatively instead speaking my real emotions, which lead to negative outcomes. Moreover if I begin to actually collect my thoughts before I say things I regret which allow others in the situation to do the same which will hopefully lead to resolution. Another response I learned in anger education that will help me avoid losing control of my anger is that I must take responsibility for my own emotions. In other words instead of blaming the other person’s actions or words for the cause of my anger that its actually my fault for letting it make me angry making it my problem and not theirs. If I was placed in the same situation there are many different assertive strategies or conflict resolution skills I could have used to ensure a different outcome that would have avoided a troublesome situation. One assertive strategy I should have used in place of my actions was once I was calm and collected was the better time to express my anger and not in the heat of the moment. As soon as I was thinking clearly I should have expressed my frustration in an assertive and non-confrontational way. When stating my concerns I should have stated them clearly and directly without the use of “you statements” which are used to hurt and…
“Anger is a basic human emotion that is experienced by all people” (Mills, 2005). It is a natural response that is triggered when someone feels hurt or mistreated. Although, it is not just a clear-cut emotion that consists of one general feeling that is the same for everyone. The levels of anger that a person feels may not always be identical and there are varying degrees of responses that someone can express when they are experiencing this sentiment. How often a person gets angry, how intensely they feel this emotion, and how long it lasts varies for every individual. This results in a range of intensity of the anger that they express. How a person decides to handle this emotional signal can be a decisive factor as to any consequential effects…
