Anger is a protective force for men

Anger is a protective force for men. It motivates us to take action to protect ourselves from the person(s) who hurt us.

We need to stay angry until the threat is gone and we have ways of dealing with similar threats in the future.

Losing our anger prematurely is dangerous.

Persistent anger is usually the result of your mind perceiving an ongoing situation of risk. Your mind is warning you that you might get hurt again.

You must address the situation if you want your anger to subside.
