Anger is an emotion, just like all the others. To say that emotions are addictive is pretty stupid.

Anger is, in certain instances, the most appropriate emotion to experience. Just as sadness is, in certain instances, the most appropriate emotion to experience.

The fact that people have difficulty experiencing theirs and other people's emotions is what makes all of us human.

I find it odd that not one person has mentioned the most wonderful side effect of anger: catharsis.

But perhaps that's too complicated for people looking for dimestore pop psychology answers to justify their behavior.
