Anger derives from a sense of frustration and is in fact a natural and productive survival mechanism. It can provide us with a physical and emotional surge of energy when we need it most to protect and defend ourselves from threat of attack. Perceived attacks can be triggered by an insult, physical assault, injustice and unfairness. However, anger can become a problem when it interferes with our lives and relationships, if it becomes too intense and occurs too frequently or leads to aggressive behaviour. You can learn to effectively manage your anger and reduce your aggression with the help of psychological therapy.
