I haven't been angry in at least two years because I am more afraid of my anger than most anything that could scare me into being angry. frustrated, irked, and irritated, certainly angry, no.
My parents have passed down a brutal cocktail of anger related behaviors to me. I don't particularly like it but the ball is in my court now. If I have ever been abusive towards fellow forumers I prostrate myself a thousand times.
is this to me? I view anger and frustration as separate entities, and I think we build up frustration because it' s hard to be honest about small irks.
Different types of anger. eg Anger in work things is necessary , if some people are self- confessed scumbags who only respect it. I very seldom get angry outside of those circumstances( most people , I never have). Very rarely I get angry with people cos I like them - I took offence and expected better from them. Its like a mutual getting a wrong impression I hate that anger , its so draining and makes me feel sort of ill afterwards : (
Sometimes its a sign of lost direction , weakness ,stupidity , vunerability, tho'. And does the angry one infinitely more harm.
I use anger as another tool in my toolbox. sometimes I use it sometimes I do not. When it's needed I get it out.
