I'd say it's the opposite even, trying to "let it go" as in ignore and not process anger is itself a recipe for it eating you alive over time. Anger needs a voice.

No, no... letting go means letting it go. Ignoring it is the opposite.

You need to do something with it is what I'm saying.

Expressing that anger is one way to deal with it, sure. Ideally, you aim for some form of expression that does as little damage as possible.

Fundamentally, long-term anger is just your brain telling your brain to stay angry. It's thought patterns in your psyche. You can just let it go. Change your thought patterns. That's a different way to deal to with anger. I'm not saying it's always easy, but It's an option available to all of us.
