About
Windy Dryden draws a distinction between healthy and unhealthy anger, and shows you how you can control your unhealthy anger by understanding what triggers it. Unhelpful beliefs and rigid expectations can lead to a cycle of unhealthy anger, which can be dangerous and destructive. There is, however, some good news. You have the power to change this pattern and to develop strategies to express your anger in a helpful way, so that you can communicate what you feel without scaring yourself, or those close to you. Practical, rational, strategic and supportive, this short and accessible book gives you the tools you need to make the change.
