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 school, personal relationships, and in the overall quality of your life.  It can make you feel you're at its mercy. 

The goal of anger management is to reduce both emotional feelings and the physiological arousal that anger causes.  Anger Management teaches not to avoid a problem, but to examine internally what causes the rage and explore alternatives in how to respond in a nonthreatening manner.
