I just saw and answer to a question where the person said that anger stems from insecurity. That's such a pat answer and obviously something this person is repeating. Secure people get angry and there are loads of reasons for anger. Have you got any more reasons for anger under your hat?
I actually think anger can lead to healthy outcomes, depending on how you deal with it.
It seems so mamby pamby to fear the anger lol
Anger is an emotion, and like any emotion
it needs thought to initiate it, other wise it
lies dormant . . .
" reasons for anger "
Probably to numerous to answer here,
safe to say though, it's as natural to get
angry as it is to fall in love not to mention
just as easy in either case . . .
some times anger is leggitimate and others
it is not, ok reasons, frustration, rejection, dissapointment,
and in my estimation one of the most often overlooked is
powerlessness, one knows something is going on and yet
are powerless to do anything about it, due to factors beyond
there controll . . .

Oh Mrs B G there is nothing under my hat. Some people are just naturally angry, quite sad really when you think about it. It takes a lot to make me cross but anger is not something I encounter much.

I've always been able to trace my anger back to fear. Fear of not being heard, fear of consequences, etc.
U.S. independence came about because colonists were afraid of being 'ruled' by England. This ended very violently and some people are still angered by it.
People get angry about racism because of their own fears of how other people may see them.
People get angry about ignorance because its randomness could attack anyone, at any time.
All of my anger is sown from the seeds of fear. When I get angry because my roommate hasn't paid rent – it's because of my fear of being evicted. I get angry when I see a 'friend' treat others in a poor manner because I'm afraid that they will treat me that way.
For me, the key to dispersing anger has been to ask myself *honestly* "What am I afraid of?" When I figure that out, I can turn the negative energy of anger into the productive energy of problem solving.
It's not a perfect methodology, but it's the best one I've ever used.
Many Blessings,
