Anger feels good
- Anger makes you feel morally superior. Every time you criticize someone, the implication is that you're better. He’s such an idiot… (but I’m pretty smart).
- Anger makes you feel in control. It gives you the illusion of control, like you're doing something and making a difference.
- Anger distracts you temporarily from more painful emotions. This is especially true of men in most cultures for whom anger is a reasonable emotion while fear, sadness, or guilt are not.
