MAD, or anger, is a natural emotional response to perceived threats, injustices, or frustrations. It can manifest in various ways, including irritability, frustration, or even rage. Anger serves a purpose, as it can motivate individuals to address problems or defend themselves. However, when expressed inappropriately, it can lead to conflicts and negative consequences in relationships. Understanding the triggers of anger is essential for managing it effectively. Common triggers include stress, feeling misunderstood, or experiencing unfair treatment. Techniques such as deep breathing, mindfulness, and communication can help individuals cope with anger in a healthy manner, promoting emotional well-being and better interactions with others.
