ANGER MANAGEMENT

We all know what anger is, and we’ve all felt it: whether as a fleeting annoyance or as full-fledged rage. Anger is a completely normal, usually healthy, human emotion. But when it gets out of control and turns destructive, it can lead to problems—problems at work, in your personal relationships, and in the overall quality of your life. And it can make you feel as though you’re at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion.

The purpose of anger management is to help a person decrease anger. It reduces the emotional physical arousal that anger can cause. A person may learn to control reactions and respond in a socially appropriate manner.
