The reason why is because anger is of a higher energy level than depression. In depression, there is utter powerlessness. In anger, there is a measure of power that is absent in depression, and thus, it feels good relative to depression.
But when I was in a higher emotional vibration than anger, anger never felt good to me, because it was retrograde.
Very astute! I once attended a business seminar conducted by a Scientologist. We didn't know she was going to teach us Scientology concepts when we scheduled the seminar, but there was actually 1 part of it that seemed really useful. She talked about emotional states of being as 'tones' and said exactly what you just said there, that anger was actually a higher 'tone' than depression or apathy.
She also said that to help another person, to just vibrate at a tone 1 or 2 levels higher, but if it's too much higher, the person can't relate to it and couldn't be helped.
It was very interesting, and I always wished I could find that list of tones again. (Not interested in being a Scientologist!)
