01 Mar 10 Revealed How To Tell If You Have An Anger Problem
Anger problems are not always known to the person who has them until they have already done something to hurt someone. The signs were there all along, but what they didn’t know about, they could not fix.
In this article, you will get information that will tell you how to determine if you have an anger problem. If you do have one, you will be able to do something about it before you get into trouble.
Control
What are your thoughts about when you get angry? When angry, do you feel as if you are about to lose it, or have you lost it already when you were angry?
If your answers are yes, then you are in fact having a problem managing your anger and you should work on your anger problem.
Fairness
What do you think, do you sometimes or even many times mistreat other people? Or is the reality that you are verbally abusive?
Here again is a reason to get help for an anger situation.
Lashing out
Do you lash out physically when you are angry? Have you ever hit anyone or destroyed property when you were angry? If so, just like the other people who do such things, you do have an anger problem. And it should be fixed immediately.
Gossiping
Gossip is just something that some people like to do. But it is also a sign or symptom that they could be having an anger problem. Some gossip because that is what they do, and others do it spitefully and full of anger with evil intent.
The substitute
You may even find that you are bothered by one person and then you take your anger out on another person.
This happens often when you are intimidated by what the person who makes you angry can do to you. However, you are still angry and someone that does not intimidate you passes by and so you release your anger on them instead.
Doing this is not right, and don’t you know it.
The solution
This kind of behavior has solutions. Do an anger management class; all of these awkward situations will be fixed.

20 Oct 09 Let Us Talk About Anger Disorder
We are all in the same boat when it comes to having to deal with life and all the stresses that populate it, and most of us can vent the anger that ensues over interactions with the people involved or the situations that pop up that make our blood boil. But, like everything else, there are those folks who suffer from an anger disorder that just cannot control the rage that rises inside them, making their lives even more stressed out than before the anger producing incident.
You could be suffering from some sort of anger disorder if you get angry on a regular basis by yelling and screaming at your family and friends, or shouting matches with your co-workers. Name calling, ridiculing, blaming and more aggressive types of actions like huffing, bullying, door slamming, and finger pointing are all part of the picture.
Then we have the flip side of total anger expression at the mercy of others around you, and that is total anger suppression. This is an anger disorder in its own right. Anger builds up inside you for whatever reason, and instead of venting it; you allow it to build until there is a point of no return and the anger explodes internally. Your health is the victim here, both mental and physical. Depression is quite often the result of this disorder, or you are tired all the time from the stress of holding all that anger inside. Another point is that your immune system takes a hit every time this happens and eventually it suffers and you are on the path to some serious health problems all because of unreleased anger.
Here’s another example of an anger disorder; one where the sufferer is addicted to anger and rage and actually enjoys the feeling they get when they vent that rage, because to them, it just feels great, and they want to do it over and over again; an addiction. This is a compulsive-addictive pattern and will occur time and time again—–usually resulting from the inability to resolve grief from the past.
A term very familiar to the average man on the street these days is passive-aggressive behavior, and this is a common form of anger disorder. This behavior quite often occurs on the unconscious level, and because of that, it is referred to as “sideways anger” where the person with the disorder will keep teasing and teasing someone until they hurt that person’s feelings, or they kid a person unmercifully. This anger disorder uses humor as a weapon and always has a victim especially in cases where sarcasm is used often, or cynicism—-or making a statement to ridicule someone by delivering it in the form of a question—-”You’re not really going to wear that dress, now are you?’
Another type of anger disorder that manifests itself all too often in today’s society is that of intermittent explosive disorder; an actual diagnosed disorder where the sufferer becomes so out of control with his anger that he goes off the deep end, or over the top. The anger and rage are so out of control that they do not match the situation, and quite often can lead to dire consequences.
We all have stresses and we all develop anger over one thing or another, but knowing how to release that anger productively is key to keeping your emotions in check, your stress level down, and your health in a positive state. Those of us who suffer from an anger disorder are not so fortunate, and suffer not only from the disorder itself and the destruction and hurt it can cause, but also from the after effects of the damage to their health and well being that occurs because of the stresses of the disorder.

14 Jul 09 Migraine Headaches Causes
Headaches in any type are always very painful for the sufferer. However, some headaches, such as migraines, for example, can create even more problems than just a headache. These problems could be sickness, sensitivity to light and a throbbing pain in the head. Sometimes the headache is felt on one side of the head, and other times you can feel the pain on both sides of your head at the same time.
The actual causes of migraine headaches has yet to be found, although there are some theories why people have migraine headaches. The most commonly held belief is that an alteration in the blood flow within the brain is one of the triggers that causes migraine headaches. Another theory about migraine headache is that maybe it could be caused by pain sensing chemicals called neuropeptides.
Many medical professionals speculate that neuropeptides relax the muscle that surrounds the cranial blood vessels. This relaxation makes the blood vessels dilate. Then those relaxed blood vessels increase the flow of blood and other cranial fluid to the brain. This increase in fluids is thought to be the cause of migraine headaches.
These cranial fluids cause inflammation, pain, sensitivity, tissue and blood vessel swelling during the time of the migraine headaches. Some people think that the aura that is sometimes seen during a migraine headache is caused by the constriction of the blood vessels that became dilated during the starting period of the migraine headache.
Another theory as to the reason for migraine headaches has been linked to genetics and inheritance. These theories say that a child of migraine sufferers will have a 50% probability of getting migraine headaches too.
The chances of inheriting migraine headaches becomes even greater if both parents are sufferers from this painful kind of headache. If both parents have frequent migraine headaches the chances of the child having migraine headache symptoms rises to about 70%.
Now even though many professionals think that inheritance plays a large role in migraine headaches the genes that may be considered as the causes of migraine headaches have not been identified or even isolated. When we begin to experience migraine headaches the only warning signs that we may receive are a throbbing pain in the temple area and light sickness.
As the symptoms of your migraine progress, the pain of the headaches become more severe. Unfortunately, since the causes of migraine headaches have not been found and we dont know what triggers these attacks, there are no medications to cure these headaches yet.
