Unlocking Hidden Anger: The Truth Behind Emotional Outbursts

Daily Dose of Integrity

Do you ever wonder why you get so angry at random times or in random situations? I will let you in on a little secret: it's not random at all.

The truth is, you've been saving up your anger. You've been investing, and this is the return on that investment. You've been building up your anger.

Nobody punches someone in the face because of one moment of anger. They do it because they've been building it up for weeks or months. This is how murder happens.

You know when a normally sane person commits a murder, it's not because someone just ticked them off a little bit. It’s because they've been suppressing anger their entire life.

So, when you catch yourself binge drinking, doing risky behaviours, shouting at people or randomly quitting things that were going well, in those angry moments of reckless behaviour remind yourself: all of this is happening because you're not being honest, you are not setting boundaries and you are not respecting yourself in other areas of life.
