“I believe that anger is often a serious problem because people let it build up to high levels and then they are unable to express it. The release of so much anger would feel like a volcano exploding. It’s frightening both to you and others. It’s much more useful in the group to work with young anger, before it turns into red anger - for example, impatience, frustration, or very minor feelings of annoyance. Would you be willing to express in the group any minor flickerings of impatience or annoyance when they first occur - for example, irritation at the way I lead the group today?”
