Modes of Anger

Each paragraph is a different mode. Mrs, Cardona's blog lists them. See if you can label them. Answers will be posted thursday. P.S i may come back and add to some later.

Example
For instance, anger can cause a lapse in judgment. I unfortunatly did not judge correctly the amount of pressure and shaking that would happen if the bathroom door was slammed. That lapse and slam had caused a part of the ceiling light ficture to crash down and shatter on the counter. This was unintended and would have been avoided if there was some rationale and the door was simply closed properly. However anger can be used as a motivator. Before every rugby match our coach addresses the team and tells us to get mad, get angry. In accordance i become mad, i become angry. That feeling of rage is reserved for the oponents, no one else. It creates a sudden spark of energy and i use that to become more aware, run faster and tackle much harder.

descriptive
His jaw clenched and his face went rigid. Small veins did not seem so small anymore as they buldge with the sudden rise in blood pressure. His entire body seemed to contract as his hands went from limp and idle to fists full of restraint and anticipation. His flairing nostrils compliment the wild look in his eyes. He took a step forward to approach the causation. Though the step had only been a few inches it seemed like the running start of a predator. The change from human to something else was so pronounced. It was just a creature made of the strong breakthrough flow of emotion that had began simmering at the start of the conversation. The red of the lava boiling within seemed to reach his face as it took on a new pinkish shade. Never had the rosy hugh looked more deadly.


cause and effect
Rage is the result of increasing frustration caused from provocation of events that are unpleasent to a person. This provocation is different for every individuel and is very dependent. Events that precede the eruption of rage are ussually the initial cause. Rage can be immidiate or have a steady incline starting at annoyance and or frustration. The effect of rage many a time results in the loss of common and logical thinking however it is possible for a person to continue to use restraint and possibly dampen this initial spurt of emotion.


classification
When we think of anger and rage we think of negativitiy, yelling, screaming, physical brutality, revenge, irrational thinking and oh-my-gosh-im-going-to-kill-you sistuations. While this is true anger and rage can used to atvantage for possitive outcomes. Anger with others or oneself can be a great motivator to acheive higher. Rage in physical sports can push people into a fighting spirit and to keep going.


narration
The feeling is familiar, starting in the pit of my stomach and expanding the boundaries of my ribcage o the point it is a physical feeling and impossible to be unaware. It spreads to my limbs willing them to release. The conversation could certainly have gone better. My thoughts are no longer idle undertones but rancorous proclamations of irrationale sugjestions and bitter sarcastic remarks. I stalk out of the room clenching my fists. My steps are stiff and hard, on the brink of stomping yet quick. My teeth clench down and i contract my muscles putting a strain in my neck and torso causing inner tremmors. Leaving was the only option.


argument/persuasion
Do not surpress your anger. People have always said take a deep breath and let it go, but its not always so simple. Now this is not to say to strike out at people violently or even verbally, however holding it in is not always the best way. Surpressing strong emotions can cause them to boil over, maybe even cause physical pain. People should find a healthy way to release anger within bounderies. If you try to completely supress anger it can ruin the res of your day. I propose that a few could methods is to vent it out with a good listener, actually write that angry letter (sans sending it), get a squeeze ball or go for a run. Work out all the pent of energy that anger can create. Letting out this emotion can ultimatly help make you feel better the rest of the day, it can dampen the frustration to the point that you can converse rationaly.


Deffinition
Anger is a feeling everyone has felt at some point. It has various levels and effects. It is a reaction to situations that are displeasing. It is the reaction to the argument that went south, the grade you thought you did not deserve, the disregard of your opinion and the person who just plain annoys you to that thin braeking point. Anger is one of the strong emotions that people have the ability to feel.


Division of Analysis
Anger is a strong feeling full of impulses, rage, yelling and irrational judgement that can lead to regrets, revenge and sometimes satisfaction. It does not always involve good sence, it is just emotion that involves an individual and his or her own thoughts. It does not have to be rational.


process analysis
Anger can be an increasing emotion following a patter. It can start at annoyance and frustration and icrease towards rage and blind fury. It is probably for there to be a leap into pure rage, given the situation. Ussually we get a sense of annoyance, maybe with a person or a problem that needs solving. The annoyance then moves on to frustration when the person continues the annoying action or problem cannot be solved agfter thinking about it. This increases to a general anger, why is this person not stopping? why can't i solve this problem? At this stage a person may either try to suppress it, walk away depeleating the metion to frustration or try to let it out of there system through minor physical motions. While some try to ride it out, only increasing to rage and may lash out at the person (verbally or physically) or attempt to completely eliminate the problem through irrational judgement (i.e ripping up apper or breaking things)


comparison and contrast
The difference between anger and hate may not seem obvious on the surface, while anger may be an asociated response the the hating of an individual or object the relationship is not complimentary. Is is possible to be angry with someone and not feel hate. Anger can also be a fleeting response emtionw hile hate is ussually deeper and consistant. Anger is ussually abstrac and related to the individual. You can hate math but the anger comes from the frustration of not being able to solve it, not the subject of math itself. Anger and hate can be felt for the same thing but anger is not always a controlable response and can vanish as quickly as it came on.
