If you have ever been really angry (above 7 on anger scale), you probably remember feeling so incredibly angry you didn’t care about anything except releasing your anger, and possibly you unleashed your anger on the person, creature, or thing that seems most deserving of it at the time. You were certainly not calm and rational and most likely not particularly mindful either; therefore, you may not have been able to stop yourself from doing or saying something you later regretted. You were being what is called highly reactive.
