For me, I'm not a generally angry person, but admittedly am quick to anger.

Anger is a safe emotion for me, its comfortable and familiar, like an old friend or favourite jeans.

Its the other emotions that scare me, and because of this, anger is sometimes my default emotion. I'd much rather be angry than hurt or scared, but looking beneath the anger, yep its there and needs to be dealt with.

I've been comfortable with anger since a very early age, and it hasn't to do with a lack of love from others or myself, it has just always been the safer option for me, although I have no clue how I originally came to that conclusion.

It is a huge motivator too, has helped me navigate some really shytti paths and I always try to express it constructively and not direct it at unsuspecting bystanders.
