Anger Management – What Is At The Root Of Anger / Anger Control?
Simply put, it’s sheer frustration. Imagine magma building up within a volcano base — layer upon hot layer. Steaming inside; burning within; rising to the top and bursting out in fiery explosions.
Anger is a lot like that. All those emotions we keep bottled up inside over days & years. They damage us from within like corrosive acid. It needs a vent, a rant, a punching bag to get it all out.
Face it! Deal with it. At the root of anger is frustration with oneself — be it circumstances, relationships, how bad your day was, or simply a sense of dissatisfaction with life.
Don’t get sucked into that spiral like a lot of people do. Don’t become a victiom of your own anger. Take a deep breath. Relax, re-think and rejuvenate. There’s always a way out.

Comments on Anger Management – What Is At The Root Of Anger / Anger Control?
Anger problems come from several different causes. If a person comes from a dysfunctional family and have bought the idea that people should be perfect then they display inappropriate anger when they make a mistake and feel shame, not good enough, or shame others for not being perfect.
If they have been spoiled then they often lose control of their anger simply when they do not get their way. In those instances the anger is more of a violent tantrum.
Drug and alcohol abuse or dependence can often show itself in inappropriate anger. However, other than chemical abuse I most often see anger problems due to a chemical imbalance in the brain or brain trauma when the person was young. This possibility should always be evaluated. The best way to do that is with a brain imaging such as SPECT.
Self love and acceptance i guess – its very difficult i get angry sometimes in fact quite a lot, and the thing is we get angry i think when we feel our needs aren’t being met, but sometimes other people can’t met our needs because we’ve set the benchmark to high that they never would anyway!
best of luck with trying to understand what makes you angry, you may start to notice at times when you do feel angry and make a note to reevaluate…… good luck
