Will venting your anger really help alleviate stress?
Venting out feels good, no doubt, but does this really stave off aggression, or does it fan the flame? People who are most prone to give vent to their rage get angrier, not less angry. Anger tends to naturally subside after some time, and people who try anger ‘purging’ techniques get the false impression that the venting out did it! Psychologists now say it is better to let the heat simmer down.
