Choices. It's always about choices. Regarding the landlord interaction:
Anger is a symptom (not a cause) and whenever it materializes you have a choice:
1) Do I want to figure out why I'm angry and actually go about the steps to try to constructively solve the problem? (Hint - it wasn't actually the flood that made you angry)
Or, 2) do I just want to vent?
That fork in the mental road is where much of the magic of real self-care resides...
