Jon, Linnea, Gina and myself are working as a group on the topic of Anger Management. We were initially going to make a video on this topic, and most likely will, but I have other ideas. More so than ideas, intriguing thoughts on what i personally think of Anger Management. So, this is a chance for me to get some insight on what the class thinks. . . When one thinks of Anger Management, what comes to mind? This is not necessarily a post for explanation on what Anger Management is, or the concepts behind it, but more so to just give some thought on what oneself likes or dislikes about it in its entirety.
here are a few ideas-
1. The ways in which Anger Management is portrayed.
2. Does it seem like Anger Management could be beneficial to people, or does it seem to make them feel worse and justs temporarily helps with the inevitable acts of rage
3. Of the three- expressing-suppressing-calming- which seems to be the most common
4. Common misconceptions of the whole idea of Anger Management

I like your group's idea, Kevin. And if I had to hazard a guess on number three of your ideas, I would say it could be a tie between expressing and suppressing anger. People very rarely (when flustered with anger) are able to take a breath and try to get perspective on the situation they find themselves in.
And on a semi-related sidenote, I read in a body language book that if someone is coming at you in rage with a face drained of color, they are potentially more dangerous than someone coming at you with a face flushed red. This is because when it is red the blood is flowing to the brain, meaning that the highest breaking point is past and they are still angry, but more under control of themselves. Whereas someone with a ghost white face is not able to think clearly and is more likely to attack you.
