About this ebook
Too many people go through life angry, the sad part is they don’t realize what they're sacrificing as a result of anger on their relationships and their health. Those who live with chronic anger suffer more with health issues, have higher blood pressure and are more susceptible to stroke and heart attacks than those not living with chronic anger. You don’t have to go through life feeling like this, you can change it at any moment. If you have issues with anger than this will be the most important thing you’re going to read because your life CAN change today. Don’t get me wrong, anger is a natural and necessary emotion that has its place in our lives, it can be a tool to motivate us to change our circumstances if we’re not happy with them, it can also stimulate our evolutionary flight or fight response in reaction to dangerous situations.

Who Needs Anger Management?
We see these angry people on TV all the time. The husband and wife, arguing
while they're washing dishes, who end up smashing plates full of food all over the
kitchen. The angry teenager screaming I hate you!
at his parents while he
smashes his cell phone into the wall and then runs to his room and slams the
door. Even young children get into the act, stomping on toys and throwing
tantrums left and right. And then someone usually says something funny, the
audience laughs, and the whole incident is forgotten.
What they don't show you on TV is that someone has to clean up that mess in the
kitchen. And someone has to pay to replace the plates. They don't show you that
the reason the teenager thinks it's OK to scream and destroy his cellphone is
because he watches his parents act the same way. And they don't tell you that the reason the toddler is so angry is because everybody else in the house is
always screaming and throwing things.
What they don't show you on TV is all the harm anger can do. It has lasting
effects on everyone around you. The toddler who is standing in the doorway
witnessing the plate-throwing incident between mommy and daddy is learning
that, when you're angry, it must be OK to scream and throw things. Mommy and
daddy do it. And it must be OK to call people names – mommy and daddy do it all
the time.
On TV you don't get to see that same toddler, a few years later, physically attack
their third grade teacher or try to poison their fifth grade teacher because they
didn't like the grade they got on the math test. You don't get to see that same
toddler grow into an angry teenager who takes a gun to school or the mall.
All you see on TV is that someone gets angry and that it's OK to violently express
that anger...and then everyone laughs.
In real life, it's pretty easy to recognize when someone we know at work or school,
or even just an acquaintance, has a problem with anger. They yell a lot, they
throw things, they stomp their feet, they call you names and say terrible things to
you, they behave irrationally, sometimes even putting themselves or someone else
in danger.
Unlike TV, though, the things they say to you are not funny. They're often very
hurtful, things that they would never consider saying if they weren't so angry.
Things that they apologize for later, but that can never be taken back or forgotten.
Their actions aren't funny, either. Breaking plates and destroying property shows
a lack of respect, not an appreciation of comedy. In fact, a lot of times, their
