It is very hard to remain calm to express ourselves when faced with people like your wife. Much respect to you Little Turtle.

I have also been listening to Dorothy Rowe. Thank you to those who have mentioned this lady. She talks of Hot and Cold Anger. This has left me to think quite hard about anger.

I have to admit to hot anger when triggered by abusive situations and people. I wish I had more control. My fight and flight responses seems to kick in, it seems. Anyone had any success catching themselves before talking or shouting with so much emotion?
