Anger is a completely normal, usually healthy, human emotion. But when it gets out of control and turns destructive, it can lead to problems—problems at work, in your personal relationships, and in the overall quality of your life.
Anger can make you feel as though you're at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion. That’s why you hear people say they can’t control their anger. However, nothing is impossible!
There are three types of anger which help shape how we react in a situation that makes us angry. These are: Passive Aggression, Open Aggression, and Assertive Anger.
Passive Aggression
This is when people don’t like to admit that they are angry,because they don’t like confrontation.This comes out in things like becoming silent when you are angry, sulking, procrastinating (putting stuff off you need to do), and pretending “everything is fine”

It means being patient; not raising your voice; communicating how you are feeling emotionally, and really trying to understand what others are feeling. You demonstrate that you are mature and care about your relationships and yourself.
Lastly, Forgiveness is key.If a person has apologized for making you angry,or if you realize that the situation “isn’t worth it”,be open to forgive.And willing to be forgiven and forgive yourself!This will help you to calm down&will help your relationships with others to flourish
