Anger is undoubtedly the most difficult emotion we can experience. It is insidious in that we manage it mechanically thus having very limited awareness that it is controlling our lives. We handle it with a smile appearing happy and serene. However, it can motivate us to stew, to think the unthinkable, to plan how we may get revenge and we may not even know it. It can disintegrate our innards to react against such an intense emotion; migraines, high blood pressure, ulcers, obesity etc. Compared to these problems, selecting an anger management course seems quite rational in comparison.

Insidious indeed, it may have been eating away inside us perhaps for years and we didn't even know it. Our bodies do, though. It"™s no wonder so many need an anger management course.

Intensity is hard to calibrate; how near the surface is arm motion that imposes suffering from a slap to the trigger of a gun. It can grasp our breathing. It is hard to calibrate as to when our voice will spew out crudity, obscenities, denigration of another resulting in tears to suicidal behavior beginning with drugs or alcohol to manage the pain of anger. We may also act out sexually to experience a momentary pleasurable moment. These actions, feelings and symptoms cry out for us to choose an anger management course as soon as possible.

It is reported that the control mechanism we label depression is our number one health issue. Depression means press down, stuff that emotion at all costs! We may never "let it loose" or act out as described in such a dramatic manner above. But it still may control us if we fail to manage it in a constructive manner and it can be a powerful symptom requiring an anger management course.

None of this is really new other than the fact that I am writing about it at the present moment. So, if what you have read thus far seems interesting to the reader then follow your curiosity, which will hopefully lead you to an anger management course!

For I am advocating that it is crucial to recognize in what way you experience anger and how you handle it. As you own up to it and identify it, you may better understand yourself and others and are better for it. For our purposes it must be stated that anger is the most basic emotion for survival. From the moment of birth we wail when we are stressed, hungry, cold or hot, wet: we howl! So, throughout life we must learn to manage it when we don't get what we need or think we want. That"™s one reason choosing an anger management course requires us to summon up a substantive amount of self-discipline.
