races and you can´t think about anything else.
Anger is a normal response to a situation B _____, treated unfairly, let down by others, hurt or rejected. Anger can
help you to defend yourself, deal with your problems, but it can also cause them. If you always lose control, people

and misunderstood.
So, what can you do about your anger?

you´re frustrated and can´t do the things you want? Understanding what makes you angry can help you deal with the
