Have you ever felt like your anger comes out of nowhere—one moment you're fine, and the next you're exploding?

In this insightful episode, anger expert Alastair Duhs breaks down the real reasons why you might think you get angry so quickly.

By understanding what's truly happening beneath the surface, you can learn to spot the early warning signs of anger, break unhelpful habits and regain control before things spiral.

Key Takeaways:

-Anger rarely comes out of nowhere—there are always warning signs, and learning to spot them is the first step to staying in control.

-The Tension Scale is a simple but powerful tool to help you track your stress before it boils over into anger.

-Anger can become a learned habit, especially if you grew up around frequent outbursts—but habits can be unlearned with awareness and effort.

-Your brain works incredibly fast, processing emotions and past experiences in the background, which can make anger feel sudden even when it’s not.

-Reframing your thoughts in moments of conflict can help you choose understanding over outburst, even in high-stress situations.

-With practice, patience and the right tools, you can replace reactive anger with calm, respectful responses that strengthen your relationships.
