While anger is a perfectly normal emotion, many of us tend to associate it with frustrated teenagers struggling with their hormones, and fail to recognize the symptoms and triggers, or know when to seek help in dealing with a possible anger disorder.
What can cause anger? To be honest, just about anything can fuel an individual’s anger, but typical triggers are often stress, financial issues, abuse, poor social or familial situations and overwhelming requirements on your time and energy. As with several other disorders, alcoholism included, anger issues may occur more frequently in those who were brought up by parents with the same disorder, and genetics, how your body deals with certain chemicals and hormones, can all play a significant role in how you deal with anger, too.
What are the different types of anger disorders? While over the years, experts have published lists about anger disorders that contradict each other, there are some forms of anger that are widely undisputed, and they include the following: • Chronic anger – this type of anger is often prolonged and can even impact the immune system, while causing other mental disorders, too. • Passive anger – this can be tricky to identify as it doesn’t always appear obvious that a person is angry.
Overwhelmed anger – when an individual has demands placed upon them that they’re struggling to cope with, they may become overwhelmed with anger. • Self-inflicted anger – this is often caused by feelings of guilt, and is directed toward the individual themselves. • Judgmental anger – directed towards others, this type of anger is often accompanied by feelings of resentment. • Volatile anger – this can involve any number of bouts of excessive or violent anger that are often spontaneous.
What is passive anger? When an individual is experiencing passive anger, others around them may not realize that they’re even angry, and nor may the individual. Instead, their emotions might be displayed as sarcasm, apathy or meanness, and they may skip school or work, and alienate themselves from friends, colleagues and family. Easy to repress, passive anger is not always recognizable, even to the passively angry individual, but psychotherapy can help them identify what emotions are driving their actions, and teach them how to deal with it so that it becomes manageable.
What is aggressive anger? While those who suffer from aggressive anger may not always recognize or understand the real cause of their feelings, they are usually aware of their emotions. Individuals may demonstrate their anger physically, by lashing out at people or destroying property, and their behaviour is often volatile and difficult to control. A trained psychotherapist can teach them how to recognize the triggers of their aggressive anger, and better manage their symptoms.
Have you got an anger management problem? Even the calmest of people will blow their top from time to time, and most of us have some kind of breaking point, but if you’re worried that your anger may be out of control or it’s having a negative impact on your life, you’d be advised to seek professional help. A counselor or therapist will evaluate your behavior and your emotional and physical symptoms to diagnose an anger disorder, and then work to help you overcome, or control it.
