1Follow the chain. The anger points at a fear, and the fear points at what you believe is at stake. That last thing is what you are actually dealing with.
Once it has passed, ask what you were afraid of in that moment, then ask whether the threat was really there. Being spoken over is not the same as being erased, though the body files them together. Do this a few times and you start to know which alarms are worth answering and which you can let ring.
Islamic evidence
He went off angrily, thinking We could not restrict him (Quran 21:87), and what surfaced later in the dark turned out to be something else. Anger is often the first thing to show and rarely the whole of it.
“And remember the man with the whale,when he went off angrily, thinking We could not restrict him, but then he cried out in the deep darkness, ‘There is no God but You, glory be to You, I was wrong.’”
Qur'an 21:87
Psychological evidence
A meta-analysis of imaging studies found that people with histories of childhood maltreatment showed heightened amygdala and wider social-processing responses to threatening cues, consistent with a nervous system tuned to expect danger. If yours learned early that trouble was coming, it will keep calling things threatening that no longer are. The studies pooled quite different groups, so this explains a tendency rather than diagnosing anybody.

Why it works. Sorting a real threat from a remembered one stops you spending a full defence on something small.
