Anger-Chapter Seven

Sometimes when I am angry, I blow up. If a situation has gotten out of control and I feel like I don't know how to express myself, I explode. I have only done this with people I am extremely close with. If this happens, it is usually because I feel helpless and can not control my emotions. However, this usually ends badly because it causes the other person to get upset right away.
I usually show some type of emotion during an argument. I wouldn't say I do not express anger at all, but that I express it calmly. If I am upset about something, I will make it known. However, I try my hardest to do so in a way that will allow me and the other person(s) to come to some sort of happy conclusion. Expressing anger calmly allows for a DISCUSSION, not a fight. Of course, any type of discussion can turn into a fight, but it allows you more control over the situation and does not create a tense environment from the start. This always ends up much better than blowing up does.
