Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.  ~ Buddha

Anger is looking in the mirror and seeing everyone's faults.

Yes anger is like taking poison and wanting the person you are angry with to die....
If I don't hold my anger in check it comes out sideways and always back to me. Anger will certainly make you feel sicker than usual. I let go of anger by attempting to do a chore which gives immediate gratification as in cleaning a bit.
Also journaling and doing Self-inquiry is extremely helpful to purge anger.

I feel anger is one of our emotions, like all the others. To me, it's a matter of learning how to
deal with it and even transform it in a constructive way. I do like the quote and what people
have said. How to let go of it. I am feeling too that it's just as unhealthy to deny it or pretend that
it isn't there either.
