🍎 Today’s Health Question ~ Is Anger Harmful to Your Health?

Ray Calabrese

It Depends on How You Manage or Mismanage Your Anger

Well-managed anger can be a useful emotion that motivates you to make positive changes. On the other hand, anger is a powerful emotion and if it isn’t handled appropriately, it may have destructive results for you and those closest to you. Uncontrolled anger can lead to arguments, physical fights, physical abuse, assault and self-harm. 

Some of the short and long-term health problems that have been linked to unmanaged anger include:

    • headache
    • digestion problems, such as abdominal pain
    • insomnia
    • increased anxiety 
    • depression
    • high blood pressure
    • skin problems, such as eczema
    • heart attack
    • stroke.
