Anger is a natural emotion that everyone experiences in life. Some researchers believe the first
sound a baby makes when born could be a sign of anger. Anger may be the original or first emotion
we feel and respond to. Imagine, before hunger, thirst, love, desire or any other describable feeling,
we may experience anger. Not only is anger a natural emotion, it is in many cases a perfectly healthy
emotion. Anger can motivate people to make very positive changes in their lives. Anger can motivate
individuals to do positive and memorable acts. Sometimes we have to be angry at injustice, at evil, or
even at nature, before we can do what needs to be done to correct wrongs or make things better. But
of course, that is not how we usually think of anger.
Most people think of anger as an emotion we must keep under control. Children are sometimes
sent to their rooms or punished for expressing anger in an excessive (过渡的) way. Parents tell a child
to "get control" of himself when the child shows anger. We may be angry with friends or at work, but
we know it is usually inappropriate to show it. We have to control the anger or suffer what may be the
negative consequences. Very early in life, we learn that anger is something that must be controlleD．
We learn this for a good reason.
We know that uncontrolled anger can lead to fights, car accidents, bad relationships with others,
unacceptable social behavior, and many other problems. Many experts say that if one holds his anger
in, it can even lead to severe mental and physical health problems. So what can we do to understand
and calm this natural emotion that we call anger?
Experts offer many solutions to excessive and harmful anger. Some of these solutions include talking
about what triggers the anger with someone you trust and is a good friend, leaving a situation that causes
anger, beating on a pillow, exercising more in one's daily life, therapy, medication, and many other methods. Whatever solution one chooses, it is good to know that by trying to find the solution to the problem of
anger, the first step in the right direction to solving the anger problem has been taken.
