Most people believe anger is a personality trait—“That’s just how I am.” This module introduces a different framework: anger is a trained nervous-system response, not an identity. You will learn why anger arises automatically under stress, how the fight-or-flight system overrides reasoning, and why insight and willpower alone fail in real-life conflict. Using neuroscience and learning principles, this module reframes anger as a performance skill—one that can be retrained through repeated practice under controlled activation. This module sets the foundation for CNCBT by shifting the question from “What’s wrong with me?” to “What needs to be trained?” Once this shift is clear, meaningful change becomes possible.
