Anger and violence

We all get angry sometimes. But if anger is expressed in ways that are harmful to ourselves or someone else, or persists for a long time, it can become a concern. If anger escalates to violence it is never acceptable, taking responsibility for your actions is the first step to finding more appropriate ways of dealing with difficult emotions.
