Remember when someone did something to hurt you? Did you immediately think of revenge to make them pay for what they did to you? Did plotting revenge against that person make you feel better? What revenge planning does is holds onto the anger you are feeling against the person who hurt you. Plotting revenge takes up your physical and mental energy. Not only does plotting revenge take up lots of your time, it ultimately leads to higher levels of aggression and in the long run, will not give you closure or make you feel better but encourages you to continually think about how you were wronged.
