As men we all get angry

The best thing we can do is talk to somebody

Don’t hesitate

Don’t be whakamā

Just pick up that phone

So what happens when I get angry?

First of all, I think my emotions & thoughts get the best of me. Things start feeling hot, my hands start getting a bit sweaty.

Sometimes I just wanna pick stuff up and, smash it or break it, just to make myself feel better, it’s definitely some hands on.

There’s definitely been a lot of pushing and shoving, even screaming.

Can’t believe some of the things I’ve just said, or done, and how I have made my partner or my kids feel...
