>>> Go ahead, get mad. It’s healthy.
Absolute garbage.
My mother brought me up this way and it’s one of the most damaging things she could have done.
DONT get mad. Regulate your emotions. Be a kind person. Communicate with people.
Anger destroys relationships fast. If you want to dispose of your relationships like they’re worth nothing then sure, get angry.
Angry people aren’t aware of it, but they are behaving like dickheads.
Anger is a mechanism for controlling other people through emotional verbal violence implying the threat of physical violence.
If someone gets angry with you, laugh at them and tell them you are immune to their attempt to control you with anger.
- prmph 3y agoI think you misunderstand the article. Getting angry can be healthy, because it shows you care about something that is going wrong, in your opinion. It's the way you channel the anger that can be productive or destructive. I think a lot of problems spiral out of control because people _don't_ get angry when they actually should. And being kind has little to do with not being angry. The most unkind people I've met don't get angry; they just let things slide, because they don't care about you, or about things being right in general. They are usually cunning people who smile and are agreeable for expediency.

My mom would get angry at everything, and then I was the one who had to regulate her emotions. And if I failed, she'd be even more mad.
