If you are physically attacked, your mind is designed to release the physical and psychological responses you need to successfully defend yourself. If you perceive some social injustice and wish to take action, anger might be just the fuel you need to help propel you through to a successful conclusion.

However, some people find that they are automatically responding with rage and fury, which they cannot control, to circumstances that simply displease them. By doing this, they cause real damage not only to themselves (remember, every thought creates a physical reaction) but also to their relationships.
