People get angry over insignificant things

Well, yeah, sometimes I do that. That happens when I feel pressured by things or if I experience problems that I can't get out of my mind. Sometimes I guess, people who are easily angry are the unhappy and insecure people. Like for example, when someone is prioritized prior you, you may feel easily irritated by it. Perhaps because your emotions got stirred and your unconscious mind starts comparing you to the person who have been prioritized and then you feel insecure about yourself. So in the end, you get mad. So those kinds of people get their emotions stirred very easily instead of analyzing the problem and looking for solutions. It happens a lot. I admitted it happens to me. I guess we just need to learn to handle our emotional stability more. And be more perspective of things.

Yes they do and I think today's society is at fault because we're given everything on a silver platter. Anywhere from having our bum changed when we're babies to having benefits cheques from the gov't. EVen now hospitals are looking like hotels, all fancy-like. Too many people will sue you for even looking at them the wrong way. Seriously, we as a spoiled society need to be put back into our places.

That would be someone with a short fuse, someone who may explode any minute at anything or anyone. I think the reason people act like it is all stress, not knowing how to control it or letting all of the little things get to them instead of letting the little things go. This is the type person that needs some counseling and won't change until they realize that they need to change before they hurt someone. I really don't think someone like this only hurts them self, it really depends on what they say and do while on a rampage. Some people take everything to heart that they hear from someone they respect or love.

They were brought up in an environment where most people around them including their families were accustomed to complaining. This behaviour has been rooted in their heart till they are grown up.

I admit sometimes I feel so impatient and get angry. It's not such a good behavior actually. No matter how busy or in a rush we may be - we need to understand that we are not the only people in this world to get in queue first or getting the bus easily. I used to behave like that before - imagine waiting for more than an hour for the bus? I kept calling the bus and traffic authority asking for the schedule and getting so impatient. But then later on I understood that I won't get anything and everything that easily.

Hi succeednow, Angry ! It will come to everyone, particularly to the people who is around 14 to 35 years of age. They tend to get anger for most of small small things. I felt its all about inexprience and immature, I too in the same age group and too anger at some places, but day by day I am getting matured. Even some matured and over aged people also get anger, its because of their situation that demands it. Some people are in move to reach a particular place in time but they can't due to some thing, hence they get anger at burst out publicly.

I have seen many such people and I work daily with one such person in my office. He gets so worked up that he starts scolding the maintenance people if the printer is not working and for every small things. I guess this is what is called as short temper and I asked him that he needs to control it if he wants to be friends with anyone. What you have said is 100% correct, they are just hurting themselves and distancing themselves from other people as no one wants to be friends with such kind of people. Sometimes they can be a real pain irritating everytime. The only way to overcome is by controlling the anger, staying calm and composed and not take everything as a discomfort. Meditation helps a lot for such kind of people.

Thanks for this discussion Yes this is true, i too become upset at times, may be due to my diabetes or it is also a age factor lol.

I myself have short temper sometimes, I easily get angry. But now, i try to control myself, i don't want to hurt anybody's feeling if i shout out at someone. Yes you are right, people always complain and get angry from simple things. Sometimes, If you have some problems on your own, or had a fight at home, or anything and you want to let it out, Sometimes, we find ways to let it out, unfortunately being angry all the time and complaining are some ways. Other people will be our shock absorber for our frustrations in life. Which is really a bad thing. I can overcome this attitude by maintaining my temper and controlling my anger. Some time i just shout like crazy. LOL.

hi, I am also short tempered person. I get angry by small mistakes of others or of my mistakes. But I know that being angry is very bad thing. In angry state of mind we hurt our closed ones. Anger is not good for our physical and mental health. So we should try to overcome our anger.

a person having a bad day is bound to get angry at everything however even if you r having a bad day you shouldn`t get angry at innocent people. people always get their anger out while driving when another driver makes a mistake they always curse at each other personally I never did it but I feel like I know the reason behind it while driving you are responsible for your life and for the life of the people riding with you and even people on the street so even the slightest mistake could lead to an accident so people tend to be more sensitive when driving ....... basically it depends on the situation but even if the person u r getting angry at made a mistake I think cursing or swearing is not the right way to anything
