RealTalk with OlaWhy so triggered?We usually think that anger is the problem, I'm not a shrink so I'm not delving into the intricacies of the mind, but what if anger is just a symptom? As you figure 'you' out, begin to note the things that people say or do, or even the smell around that causes you a strong emotional reaction of fear, shock, anger, or worry. Hopefully, removing yourself from these things or removing them from you, will promote a better mental health.
