behaviour. Many times they seem to dominate us in such a way that we have
no solution other than behaving as they want us to. On the other hand, if
a person has no emotions in him, then he becomes crippled in terms of
living his life in a normal way. In this way, emotions play a key role in
providing a particular direction to our behaviour and thus shaping our
personality according to their development.

high anger, it effects your breathing, heart rate and blood circulation.
