Take control of your anger

AN irritating boss or colleague, misbehaving children, being bumped into in the street are just a few of the things that can make any of us cross sometimes.

And, in a tricky economic period, when we’re generally more stressed, our anger can be further fuelled by outrage and frustration over everything from bankers’ bonuses to pension cuts and job losses.

Anger in itself is neither good nor bad and it can be a huge sense of relief when we finally get something off our chest.
