My friend Jorge is my favorite person.
He is liked by all his friends.
But Jorge has had a problem for awhile now...




"Anger is probably one of the mostly debated basic emotions, owing to difficulties in detecting its appearance during development..." (Williams, 2017)
Music in Anger processing

My friend Jorge is angry.
"The modern definition of anger is a feeling of great hostility, displeasure, or exasperation toward other persons. " (Singer,2019)

My Friend Jorge tries to control it.....
"The experience of anger is perceived as being beyond any conscious reason, because emotions are reflexive, involuntary experiences rather than purposeful acts. To be angry is not a conscious choice." (Singer, 2019)

But it always seems to control him.
"Anger is a natural emotion that activates self-defense mechanisms to protect oneself in stressful situations" (Moghadasin, 2020)

He can't help it.

"Anger’s physical components are changed biostatus, such as increased heart rate and blood pressure. These stimuli will differ in extent from person to person." (Singer, 2020)
It happens when he's alone.

"These findings suggest that low self-esteem individuals report more anger, but have fewer expressive outlets than do individuals with more favorable self-concepts." (Brooks, 1984)

Or when he's on the phone.
"Historically, adolescent males respond to anger with physically aggressive responses and physical attacks on objects." (Puskar, 2008)

Or when he's with people.

"Anger is therefore a reaction to the actions of others and a judgment of the cause of those actions. To become angry, one must see an action of another person as intentional mistreatment. Whether this is true is irrelevant; the perception of mistreatment causes the anger response." (Singer,2019)

Especially when he's with people.

"Anger may be one of the early warning signs which could lead to violent behavior." (Puskar, 2008)

"The more usual instances of anger include anger at a spouse, anger at an employer, anger at a friend, and anger due to a situation caused by a stranger" (Singer, 2020)
Sometimes, it's on the road.

"...Moreover, aggressive driving is a major cause of traffic accidents and injuries." (Berdoulat, 2020)
"Currently, there are no adequate mental health diagnoses that capture the dys-functional, impairing responses of the angry driver." (Fernendez, 2013)

My friend Jorge can't be blamed, though.

"Living or working with a serial bully can drive you mad. Although it feels like you're going insane, in most cases targets of bullying are completely sane but mad with anger." (Field, 1998)

He's been through a lot.

"Anger and frustration are key examples of the emotional and psychological trauma that children of divorce face." (Willams, 2017)
Music in Anger processing

Lately, he's been thinking...
"Suppressed anger can lead to depression. Rage and depression should be treated professionally." (Singer,2019)

That maybe it was time for him to get help.
"Therapy focuses on healing the emotional/attachment injuries perpetrated by particular abusive and/or neglectful others." (Fernandez, 2013)
Music in Anger processing

He got better...
"Anger is reflected in facial expressions (e.g., reddened face, clenched teeth), muscular tension, and accelerated heart rate, and it differs from rage “only in degree, and there is no marked distinction in their characteristics” (Spielberger & Charles, 2010)

Slowly...

"It happens when an experience causes a change in biological and mental states. Anger is caused by both mental and physical stimuli. Its mental components are thoughts, beliefs, expectations, and values." (Singer, 2019)

But, Between you and me.
Something helped him a little bit more.

"On the most basic scientific level, music is the sound that is produced by vibrating strings, reeds, the human vocal chords, and other instruments."(Music: Research Starters Topic, 2018)
Music in Anger processing

Something made him feel better.
"Many music lovers consider music to be a lifeline, secondary only to food and air." ." (Music: Research Starters Topic, 2018)

His anger would almost not be a problem anymore.
