ANGER

What Is Anger?

Anger is a normal emotion that everyone experiences from time to time. However, when anger becomes frequent, intense or difficult to manage, it can affect relationships, school, work and family life.

Many children and adults describe feeling overwhelmed by their emotions, becoming frustrated over small things or struggling to calm down once upset. Anger difficulties can sometimes be linked to anxiety, ADHD, autism, stress and emotional regulation challenges.
