Understanding the Complexity of Anger

Anger is a complex emotion that arises from a combination of factors, including the provocation or stimulus, our mood at the time, and how we interpret the situation. While it is common to attribute anger to external triggers, such as someone's actions, our own internal factors and appraisals play a significant role. It's important to carefully evaluate whether we have experienced poor treatment or injustice, if our goals are being blocked, and our own contributions to the situation. By considering these factors, we can better understand the legitimacy and intensity of our anger.
