Bored Panda reached out to Leonardo M. Jones, an expert on emotional intelligence and the psychology of emotions, for insights on the misunderstood emotion of anger. Here's what he shared:

"Society often labels anger as a destructive emotion due to its potential outcomes—things like hostility, violence, and aggression. This perspective might come from various sources, such as cultural, religious, or societal norms. Yet, several researchers and psychologists argue that anger can be quite constructive."

"At its core, anger serves as a shield. It equips us to fend off perceived threats. Those who recognize and express their anger judiciously often navigate their paths more effectively. Think of anger as a push towards our aspirations. Surprisingly, anger can cultivate hope. Recognizing what fuels our anger can spotlight areas of personal growth." He told Bored Panda.

I told some of my classmates about it and they were really supportive about telling me how they ( the bullies) were super stupid and jealous of me. With bullying, you kinda have to go through it to really understand how bad it really is.

Racists, bigots, and misogynists are three good examples to get the ball rolling. People who let their feral offspring run riot through restaurants, cafes, pubs, and supermarkets, whose only parenting 'skill' is to shout 'stop it!' at the top of their voices. People who think that their religion gives them the right to look down on others, zealots who shout at you or blow you up, churches and preachers that hoard money as if it's going out of fashion. People who demonize or criticize others because of their race, gender, or lifestyle choices.

In a nutshell, anyone who intentionally says or does something that hurts another person, whether physically, emotionally, or otherwise.

The world is an awful place, but one person isn't going to be able to fix it all overnight! Just remember to do your part, and try your best to (kindly) educate others; even though everyone here wants to change the world, and work together, we need to keep in mind that sometimes we need to focus on our mental health, too.

You're important, and amazing, and even if you don't have the time, resources, or energy to lead a protest or fight back every single moment, even the little things like picking up trash and being kind to strangers can stack up and make a huge difference!

Especially, like has happened in the USA recently, when the inflation is driven in very large part, by GREED. Pil companies posting record earnings.

Inflation is being pushed by companies for whom it is not enough to post good profits enough to keep your investors happy, but instead keep raising prices (and thus inflation) that results in record earnings. Because the type of unfettered capitalism practice in the US is based ENTIRELY on greed with no consideration for anyone else who lives on the earth. Because GREED.

That I live in a country that can't seem to get it's s**t together.

1. We complain about the number of shootings, yet we still refuse to address mental health as an issue that needs serious funding and resources to allow people to get the help they need.

2. We have some of the best medicine in the world, but you can only get it if you are willing to shell out your current and any future life savings. The fact healthcare for a dying person can be withheld if they can't pay boggles the mind.

3. That we have fields of work that are vastly understaffed, but fail to see that low pay and expensive colleges are to blame instead of using the excuse that people are lazy.

4. That our own basic selfishness prevents us from doing something for the safety of your fellow man out of a deranged belief that your government finds you important enough to keep you under their thumb.

5. The fact that our situation is getting worse everyday, but we are like cattle to the slaughter voting in members of the same two political parties and hoping that their own personal agendas won't stand in the way of actual progress...again.

I hate that nothing changes and everything is this endless cycle of stupidity and selfishness.

Right now it’s christians thinking their religion should discrete how other people live their lives and make their own decisions. My other mother in law (step?) keeps posting bible c**p to slam abortion. It just makes me want to slap her. Not everyone follows the same religion or any religion for that matter! It’s not like she follows her own bible anyways!! She and her husband have tattoos. They wear mixed fabrics. They work on Sundays. They don’t follow their own religion that closely so why do they expect everyone in the world to? They have a daughter. I love that kid dearly but she’s weird. They’ve made her weird. She isn’t a normal child and it’s because they’ve hidden her away in religious home school programs and limit everything she does. That’s their right as her parents. I know that and I don’t ever get between them. So why are they trying to be in everyone else’s business? Just because someone else is on a diet, doesn’t mean everyone is. Just because someone doesn’t agree with gay marriage, doesn’t mean they can stop someone who does! They are just the most narrow minded people. I’ve tried to talk with them before in childish synonyms and ridiculous metaphors but they just don’t listen and I’m angry. I can’t actually fight back because then we’d lose that kid forever. I can’t handle that. So I have to make up half playful put downs without making waves and I just hate it. I hate knowing that they’re raising her racist, homophobic, transphobic, and every other “-phobic” you can think of. I hate the misinformation they spread about everything they hear. Covid? China virus but it’s fake. Abortion? Devil sacrifice dating back a thousand years. Gay? It’s a choice and since it is a choice they must worship the devil to want to go to hell. Trans? Liberal media brainwashing children to serve the devil. Ridiculous c**p. I refuse to let other people’s religions dictate my life.

People talk to a disabled person like they're dumb or can't understand them. Just because they can't speak back or respond the way you're used to, doesn't mean they don't know exactly what you're saying and if you can't muster up the f*cking courtesy to speak to them with respect than you can go to h*ll and take your stupid f*cking false kindness schtick with you.

Also we’re the only country other than North Korea that doesn’t recognize Parental Alienation as a violation of children’s human rights.

Americans have to be in poverty to have any social safety net so I can’t afford to work or I’ll lose my health insurance. My medical costs are at least $20K every month so I try to tell myself I make $20,000 per month. Myself calls BS on that.

I’m sad about the non-supreme Supremes and the criminal ways they were approved. I’m sad going all the way back to Gerald Ford’s pardon of Nixon, normalizing criminal activity in the government and Newt Gingrich’s declaration of hatred on the left.

For those who are wondering (probs going to get downvoted), foie gras is basically duck liver, but it’s fed on a special diet that is force fed by a funnel. It’s banned in many places, but many enthusiasts will go and eat it for the rich, fatty flavor. Never tried it, but I know someone who had and says it’s weird.

The lack of structure and accountability across society and public life in general. There is so much regulation and so many regulatory bodies, so many private and public services and everything is the fault of the citizen. If you have a public service you have to make an account, give all your information and submit it yourself, so what is the service exactly?
When you get a license or a certificate or something the issuing body says "we do not take responsibility for the validity of this candidate" and other legalese. Really? Then what are you issuing certificates for?

Random people being rude to me. Example. Yesterday I was walking in the mall, pretty crowded. I have bone & blood issues in my limbs, meaning I react quite badly to temperature fluctuations. We're not sure what it is but its genetic and very painful (the same feeling that you get after having a vaccine, if y'know what i mean. Dull but sore and very weak). So I was having a little problem due to the weather changes. My legs ached like hell, so I was slowly walking to find a free place to sit down. A group of highschool students behind me began yelling at me to hurry up. Literally screeching. At a stranger. I mean, granted, they we're apologetic after I told them off, but still. Its not the first time someones been randomly rude to me or my friends either. Something has got to be wrong with people these days. I could have been a really violent person, and they would have gotten hurt. That incident has been ruining my day all week.

Customer service voicemail hell. First, the computer can't understand you. I understand you have a billing issue. NO I want tech support! Then they start haranguing you to go to their website, making you listen to them read out the entire web address like you are going to remember that. If I had a question that could be answered by the website, the only reasons I would be calling are: 1-I don't have access to the internet or 2-I don't know how to use a computer. Then it wants some account number that you don't know because you do online bill paying, or the card is in your wallet somewhere else in the house. Then you may be asked for some pin number that if you do know it, you are so annoyed by now that you can't see what you are entering. So then you are on hold 35 minutes give or take, it starts to connect to a person and then disconnects the call. So, second or third time around, an hour or so later, you get a person and 50% of the time, they are the wrong department or they start reading off all the steps you have already done to solve the issue and that's all they've got, so you get to go through this all a 3rd or 4th time with another number. Sometimes, they come up with something else like your warranty is expired and you have to pay $45 for them to tell you your printer cannot be fixed. Lately I've been getting a choice of music between crappy pop, old fogey jazz or sleep inducing classical, because if you choose silence, you can sit there for an hour and not realize the call has dropped again. I am not normally a big cusser but if anyone is actually monitoring those robot voice services, they are getting an earful.
