Listen Later

Psychologists describe anger as a secondary emotion. 

There’s always a primary emotion that’s driving the anger.

Picture an iceberg – Anger is just at the tip. Another emotion is beneath the surface that’s causing your anger to bubble up. 

So if you notice yourself getting triggered easily, check in to see what’s really going on. 

Here’s what most men are experiencing beneath the surface:
