The amygdala responds to threat signals coming from the outside world, so, according to nature's design, anger is needed for this very purpose - it is an emotion-weapon.
What does anger look like
Physiologically, anger and anger have an exciting effect: the heartbeat quickens, blood vessels dilate, blood rushes to the face and limbs (so that the individual has the opportunity to scare away the enemy with its appearance or fight back), and catecholamine hormones are released (including adrenaline and norepinephrine).
It happens to the best of us: you start getting angry only to realize that you're actually being emotional because you're hungry.
While many people joke about being "hungry," new research has shown that it's actually quite normal.
Why aggression is good
Expressing anger gives us release and allows us to calm our nerves. Taking out aggression helps increase productivity.
Sometimes a moderate expression of anger is appropriate in the work process.
This way you make it clear to partners and colleagues that certain problems are more important and require a quick solution.
