Unkindness & the Secondary Emotion

Today my psychotherapist informed me that out of all their clients, I am not very kind to myself.

I came in saying anger / my temper are big problems lately. But according to my psychotherapist, "anger is what we call a 'secondary emotion.'"

Usually there's some deeper emotion underneath it. What emotion do you think is underneath your anger?

Fear?

Sadness.
