You suppress it until you calm down so that you can release it in a calm, rational environment. It's like waiting until you get home to jerk off instead of doing it in the car while driving.The problem of rage, hatred and anger is suppressing it, labelling it always negative and turning it inward. The idea that it's ALWAYS inappropriate to be angry.Interestingly, inappropriate and/or excessive anger is associated with a great many mental health issues, ie ADD, personality disorders, particularly narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) and, of course, depression.
Anger is a basic emotion. It's energy. In Buddhist teachings it's a form of wisdom.

I should hope so. At 18 she was an adult. Unless the aunt was pretty spry she would probably be getting her ass kicked!My sister told me something surprising very recently. She said when she was 18 she finally hit my aunt back. (after a lifetime of abuse). It stopped my aunt for once.
The idea is to subordinate uncontrollable emotions like rage in a rational way, not to let them run wild. There is nothing wrong with bottling it up for a day or two then letting it out in a controlled manner. It's like running outside to free a big wet colon sneeze.When a child is abused, they may inwardly rage at the abuse, but isn't safe to express it. The idea that the emotion of rage should ALWAYS be suppressed is wrong.
Kids need to be taught how to identify and control their emotions, not how to blow off steam. Dhara is 100% wrong here.
Not always. It would depend on the situation and if the anger results in a positive action.I've never heard of anyone being enraged against themself.
It seems unlikely, but then again being angry at yourself is irrational true?
The rage doesn't have to DO anything but be felt.When a child is abused, they may inwardly rage at the abuse, but isn't safe to express it. The idea that the emotion of rage should ALWAYS be suppressed is wrong.
The rage solves NOTHING. Talking to a counselor or law enforcement officer might.
Taking a beating and never fighting back isn't valuable. Healthy entitlement includes a healthy anger and rage.The idea is to subordinate uncontrollable emotions like rage in a rational way, not to let them run wild.

Agreed, and often this is why those kids grow up and repeat the cycle. No suppression technique was learned and practiced. It falls within a psychology of being a victim and not working through that.

That is the thing about rage, it is not a controlled situation, if it was it would not be rage.
Potter-Efron lists four types of rage reactions: 1.Survival Rage, a perceived threat to one’s physical existence. 2. Impotent Rage, a threat to one’s control over his/her life. 3. Shame- Based Rage, a threat to loss of self-esteem. 4. Abandonment Rage, loss of an intimate relationshipIncorrect. You'd have better luck trying to escape or trying to play with the tiger. Sometimes predators play with their prey. Sometimes prey can escape predators. Fighting a tiger would be irrational but it is not caused by rage.Rage can be appropriate. It's what kicks in and allows you to fight for your life, when attacked by a tiger.Anger is rational. Rage is not. Not sure what your last sentence had to do with the discussion.Rage and anger aren't "rational", they are strong emotions from an old, survival part of the brain. Stop bringing your FZ presumptions into the thread and we can have an interesting discussion,"Ravi".
