As a child you are taught to control your emotions to a certain extent. Excitement as a young adolescent doesn’t necessarily mean screaming and yelling anymore, anger doesn’t mean hitting, and sadness doesn’t mean screaming and crying at the same time. You have been taught to control these emotions to a certain extent.

Unfortunately, for some, learning to control anger is a bit different and a bit more difficult. The same way you do not cry in public, throw yourself down on the sidewalk and beat your fist against it, are the same rules that should apply to your anger issues. In other words, if you have learned to control your other emotions you can learn to control your anger.
