Wrath, fury, rage – whatever you call it, anger is a powerful emotion.
Unfortunately, it is often an unhelpful one.
Anger is a natural human emotion, and sometimes there are valid reasons to
get mad like feeling hurt by something someone said or did or experiencing
frustration over a situation at work or home. But, uncontrolled anger can be
problematic for your personal relationships and for your health.
