Drinking to take away anger is a fools game - for me, sometimes (maybe 5% over 20 years) it 'worked' - but I woke up still angry - more angry cos I was hungover...
and so I'd drink again....and again..and...

Most times it didn't work...and I'm sure you know drunken angry is not somewhere you want to be...neither is drunken despair, or drunken depression which are two common flipsides.

I have three years experience that suggests to me that you can get angry, and get through getting angry, without getting drunk.

It's often a quicker process...and I hope I don't sound condescending when I say you may actually get something from the experience this way
