About anger

Anger is a normal part of being human being it’s a rudimentary emotion. Furthermore, if that anger becomes out of control too quickly, maybe it’s time to gain a professional perspective on what’s going on for you.

Anger has many stages from mild irritation to out and out and out rage state and all points in between. The point here is how quickly you go from one extreme to another.

Does the UK have an anger problem?

This is the question that we often get asked. The answer here is your anger affecting people around you both professionally and personally? Here are some facts:

• 45% the general population become angry in the workplace.
• In the UK 80% of road users have been involved in a road rage episode.
• One in 20 people has had a verbal altercation or physical fight with the neighbours.
• 20% of UK population become angry while shopping (33% for younger people).
• Computers freezing, or not working has caused 50% of users to hit their machines. Often people have been seen on YouTube throwing their computers smashing them up and hurling abuse screens.

Most common way of expressing anger is by swearing; shouting or screaming 50% of us do this with, on average only 5% of people actually becoming physically aggressive. Both men and women get angry about the same amount, but the male response to stressful or angry situations is often more extreme than women’s.
