Why am I so ANGRY?
Anger tells us we need to take action to put something right. It gives us strength and energy, and motivates us to act.
But for some people, anger can get out of control and cause problems with relationships, work and even the law.
Long-term, unresolved anger is linked to health conditions such as high blood pressure, depression, anxiety and heart disease.
It's important to deal with anger in a healthy way that doesn't harm you or anyone else.
How common are anger problems?
In a survey by the Mental Health Foundation, 32% of people said they had a close friend or family member who had trouble controlling their anger.
Even though anger problems can have such a harmful effect on our family, work and social lives, most people who have them don't ask for help.
Sometimes people don't recognize that their anger is a problem for themselves and for other people. They may see other people or things as the problem instead.
What makes us angry?
Anger is different for everyone. Things that make some people angry don't bother others at all. But there are things that make lots of us feel angry, including:
being treated unfairly and feeling powerless to do anything about it
feeling threatened or attacked
other people not respecting your authority, feelings or property
being interrupted when you are trying to achieve a goal
How we react to anger
How you react to feeling angry depends on lots of things, including:
the situation you are in at the moment – if you're dealing with lots of problems or stress in your life, you may find it harder to control your anger
your family history – you may have learned unhelpful ways of dealing with anger from the adults around you when you were a child
events in your past – if you have experienced events that made you angry but felt you couldn't express your anger, you may still be coping with those angry feelings
Some people express anger verbally, by shouting. Sometimes this can be aggressive, involving swearing, threats or name-calling.
Some people react violently and lash out physically, hitting other people, pushing them or breaking things. This can be particularly damaging and frightening for other people.
Some of us show anger is passive ways, for example, by ignoring people or sulking.
Some people see anger and aggression as the same thing. In fact, anger is an emotion that we feel while aggression is how some of us behave when we feel angry.
Not everyone who feels angry is aggressive, and not everyone who acts aggressively is angry. Sometimes people behave aggressively because they feel afraid or threatened.
