Anger Management Experts Explain How to Keep Cool After Oscars Slap

After Will Smith smacked Chris Rock at this year’s Oscars, anger management experts are weighing in on how to control your emotions when you feel provoked. Clinical psychologist Dr. Jeff Gardere says the first thing to do is take a deep breath. “Count to 25, 30, 50 if you have to, until you can rationally think about what’s going on,” he said. Experts say if you can, remove yourself from the situation, adding Smith should have walked away and calmed down.
