If a situation has made you angry, the healthiest response is to let yourself feel pissed off!

 

Stomp your feet, cry, talk a million miles a minute or do whatever it takes for you to vent. Sure, being pissed off might intimidate a few people around us.

 

But, the result is guaranteed to be much scarier if you choose to harbor your ill feelings.

 

Countless studies have shown that people who suppress painful or undesirable emotions end up experiencing physical consequences – and, ironically, larger doses of those painful emotions they were trying to avoid in the first place!

 

By letting ourselves be angry, frustrated or pissed off, we begin the crucial process of acknowledging and working through our feelings.
