making, physical attack and
defiance.
02
Verbal Anger Types of Anger

a wrong-doing is also an example of
verbal anger.
03
Passive Anger Types of Anger

Passive anger is shown mostly


through mockery, or through
avoiding a certain instance.

People who are displaying this type


of anger are not showing their anger
outright but are devising covert ways
of expressing it.

They do not confront a person or a


situation.
04
Self-inflicted Anger Types of Anger

This type of anger is the one that is


directed toward a person’s own
body.

Sometimes, people showing this type


of anger tend to starve themselves
or eat too much, for example.

These are the people into the idea of


punishing their own self for
something wrong they have done.
05
Chronic Anger Types of Anger

People with chronic anger are just


angry in general.

They are angry with their lives, with


their selves, with the people around
them and the whole world in general.

definite reason why. Most of the
time, they are just angry for
apparently no reason at all.

verbal or physical assault.

This type of anger is the most


common one.

other person. If your anger is due to

are guilty of this type of anger.

an irrational way, that they are

people who would like to gain
control over a situation.

would like to happen.

somebody or something.

low self-esteem, psychosomatic illnesses and
problems with alcohol or drugs.

It is important to manage anger before it leads to


other serious problems.
CUDSAIR

Professor Richard Nelson-Jones of the UK has developed


a good structure to use called CUDSAIR.

This stands for


Confront,
Understand,
Define,
Search,
Agree,
Implement and
Review.
CUDSAIR can be applied to any problem that makes you
angry.
CUDSAIR

Confrontation- where you all confront the problem instead


of one another, and see what is the point of your anger.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Understand- which means you understand how each of you
are feeling, and grant the right to disagree.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Define- which is to mark out the area of disagreement.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Search- where you look for the solutions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Agreement- it might be good or bad, it might work or not.
But the point is, you see what concessions have been made,
applaud it and see what can be done.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Implementation, of course
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Review- You let some time pass, and then go back and see
if you can do any better this time round.
