Lost tempers make fast choices. Fast choices make long cleanups.

Anger speeds decisions up and deletes the step where you think about next week. That is why ten furious minutes, a text sent, a shift abandoned, something broken, a friendship ended by announcement, can take months of ordinary days to put right. The feeling passes a long time before the consequences do.

Give yourself one rule for when you are heated: nothing irreversible until tomorrow. No sending, no quitting, no telling people. Walk, eat, sleep, then see whether the same action still looks necessary in daylight.
