It is very difficult for us to look at negative emotions as something useful to us. After all, we have been taught all our lives to hide, hide and control them. True, they did not teach me how to do it)))) For me, the main principle of my “communication” with emotions is the understanding that nature simply does not give anything. Everything that is inherent in us is very much necessary for us.

I'll tell you about aggression from the other side, in which it is very useful to us. At what moments in our life we use our aggressiveness, but we do not even understand that it is it that is our inner motive force, impulse and energy.

• Aggressiveness contributes to the survival of the individual and the entire species: ensuring selection of the "best producers" and establishing a certain social hierarchy. Moreover, aggressiveness can perform the function of preserving the species much more successfully than intimidating the enemy. This is a certain internal mechanism, or it is more correct to say one of them, which participates in the desire to achieve the best results.

• Aggressiveness is necessary for human adaptation in the process of evolution. Lack of acceptable aggressiveness leads to blocking of self-affirmation and self-realization, to blind obedience and unnecessary sacrifice. A person who has poorly expressed healthy aggression cannot build a framework and ensure the integrity and security of his own borders.
• Aggressiveness is involved in striving for independence or vigorously defending one's own opinion. Aggression at this point is a form of decisive behavior. It is necessary for the introduction of innovations, the development of creative activity, the formation of new norms, rules, theories and laws. Without the manifestation of aggression in this area, a person remains indifferent not only to his own life, but also to the next generations.

• Aggressiveness is an integral quality of consciousness, organizes its activities. Responsive aggression, as a person's reaction to coercion, pressure, pressure, pressure is natural, conscious or unconscious. This is the result arising from the desire of each person to feel himself a subject, not an object. Those. due to aggressiveness, we do not allow to do on ourselves what is unacceptable for us. In turn, a dull feeling of aggressiveness is the result of the fact that people are broken, morally destroyed, they are harshly manipulated and forced.
• Aggressiveness is defensive in nature at the moment of danger, real attack or threat, acting as self-defense. As soon as the danger disappears, the aggressive energy itself dies out. In fact, aggressiveness is the only emotion that allows us to defend ourselves. Moreover, to protect both physically and psychologically. Nowadays they often talk about moral violence. With a healthy level of aggression, it can be avoided. This is about not being attacked.
• Aggression performs the functions of socially acceptable self-assertion in a competitive environment. In the professional sphere and in the fulfillment of civic duty, aggression is necessary for the police, military personnel, athletes (karateka, fencers, wrestlers, etc.). Any goal achievement is impossible without aggressiveness, as it is similar to the moment of survival. If our ancestors fought for life, then we are for having comfortable living conditions in times of high competition.

• Well, I can't help but mention that sexual energy is the energy of aggressiveness. Therefore, she also performs the function of receiving pleasure and participates in the prolongation of the genus.
