Isn’t Anger just a condition in which the tongue, works faster than the mind?

Anger is a secondary emotion, but you already know that, don't you ?\n\nYes, but a tongues speed (no jokes) is actually due a lack of impulse control, lessons from your family of origin, and a lack of a secure self.

Language has the power to inflame, incense, persuade, comfort, inspire -- it can affect my emotions, explain ideas and concepts, inform, and move people. I can't explain your point of view; only you can do that.

Anger and emotion causes your body to release chemicals into your blood stream that further amplify your aggression.  Counting  causes your body to focus on something else and in turn stops your brain from sending messages to release these chemicals into your body, and it also allows your body to burn up the chemicals your brain has already released, so when you are done counting your body is well on it's way to getting back to a emotionaly balanced state.

You're telling it wrong. This is how it should go.\n\n"Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is." \n \nAnd the answer is Language. "The English Language."

Yes.  It is  a structured linguistic process.  Grammar is the form of the structure, I think.  If you were speaking of an evolutionary process the answer is still yes, but the form of the structure is neurological.  Disordered thought, as in schizophrenic "word salads", clearly count as language, but are unstructured, but this is an anomaly.

Often based in a sensation or perception of threat, anger can be considered an emotional component in the increased threat response (part of the broader "stress response") whereby the charged emotional state produces physiological effects (increased adrenaline, cortisol), thereby producing behavioural effect of heightened stress and aggression.\n\nAnger may be "provoked" (or triggered) by perceived threats, like conflict, or by abstract concepts such as injustice. There are many physical conditions that increase the potential for one to become angry. Common contributors to irritability include fatigue, hunger, being in pain, sexual frustration, recovery from an illness, or the use of certain drugs. Other causes are hormonal changes, such as those associated with PMS, giving birth, and menopause, physical withdrawal, and bipolar disorder. Research also shows that some individuals can be genetically predisposed to higher levels of anger.

Yes. this s a mini-meditation of putting some of your attention on your own tongue and throat when in a conversation. It results in your keeping your voice down at a modulated and reasonable level,\nand thinking more slowly, so that you do not seem to be ramming your own thoughts, ego and feelings into the atmosphere

Interesting puzzle:\nfMRI studies have shown that neurons in the brain associated with a task begin to fire about 800 milliseconds before the person is even aware that they want to perform an action.\n\nDo we have no free will? \n\n\nMed Hypotheses. 2001 Mar;56(3):364-6.\nIf there were no free will: Fisher CM.\n\n\nElectrophysiological findings in humans who are performing voluntary acts, indicate that the intention to act, follows brain activity rather than preceding it. This has implications for voluntary behavior and the doctrine of free will. This essay reviews the fields of human behavior, including medicine, in which this new thesis might have far-reaching significance. Copyright 2001 Harcourt Publishers Ltd.\n\nAn extract:\n\n...it should be pointed out\nthat somewhat the same conclusion may be reached on\nthe basis of rather elementary observation. Every thought,\nfeeling, inclination, intention, desire, every mental\nimpression no matter how brief or faint, must be created\nby nervous system activity. How else could they arise? Ideas would have to arise without a physical basis.\nNervous system activity must always precede. Every\nnuance of thought and feeling arises in and must be preceded\nby its own specific electrical configuration in the\nbrain. If one has the experience of ‘willing’ the nervous\nsystem to do something, the impression of ‘willing’ must\nhave been preceded by nervous system activity.\nOtherwise there would be no source and we are in the\nrealm of the supernatural. Before I think of anything, it\nmust first have taken form in my nervous system.\n\n\nTherefore: answer to your question would be 'nervous system activity'

(m)\n\nWe all know what anger is, and we've all felt it: whether as a fleeting annoyance or as full-fledged rage. \n\nAnger is a completely normal, usually healthy, human emotion. But when it gets out of control and turns destructive, it can lead to problems—problems at work, in your personal relationships, and in the overall quality of your life. And it can make you feel as though you're at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion. This brochure is meant to help you understand and control anger. \n\nWhat is Anger? \n\nThe Nature of Anger \n\nAnger is "an emotional state that varies in intensity from mild irritation to intense fury and rage," according to Charles Spielberger, PhD, a psychologist who specializes in the study of anger. Like other emotions, it is accompanied by physiological and biological changes; when you get angry, your heart rate and blood pressure go up, as do the levels of your energy hormones, adrenaline, and noradrenaline. \n\nAnger can be caused by both external and internal events. You could be angry at a specific person (Such as a coworker or supervisor) or event (a traffic jam, a canceled flight), or your anger could be caused by worrying or brooding about your personal problems. Memories of traumatic or enraging events can also trigger angry feelings. \n\nExpressing Anger \n\nThe instinctive, natural way to express anger is to respond aggressively. Anger is a natural, adaptive response to threats; it inspires powerful, often aggressive, feelings and behaviors, which allow us to fight and to defend ourselves when we are attacked. A certain amount of anger, therefore, is necessary to our survival. \n\nOn the other hand, we can't physically lash out at every person or object that irritates or annoys us; laws, social norms, and common sense place limits on how far our anger can take us. \n\nPeople use a variety of both conscious and unconscious processes to deal with their angry feelings. The three main approaches are expressing, suppressing, and calming. Expressing your angry feelings in an assertive—not aggressive—manner is the healthiest way to express anger. To do this, you have to learn how to make clear what your needs are, and how to get them met, without hurting others. Being assertive doesn't mean being pushy or demanding; it means being respectful of yourself and others. \n\nAnger can be suppressed, and then converted or redirected. This happens when you hold in your anger, stop thinking about it, and focus on something positive. The aim is to inhibit or suppress your anger and convert it into more constructive behavior. The danger in this type of response is that if it isn't allowed outward expression, your anger can turn inward—on yourself. Anger turned inward may cause hypertension, high blood pressure, or depression. \n\nUnexpressed anger can create other problems. It can lead to pathological expressions of anger, such as passive-aggressive behavior (getting back at people indirectly, without telling them why, rather than confronting them head-on) or a personality that seems perpetually cynical and hostile. People who are constantly putting others down, criticizing everything, and making cynical comments haven't learned how to constructively express their anger. Not surprisingly, they aren't likely to have many successful relationships. \n\nFinally, you can calm down inside. This means not just controlling your outward behavior, but also controlling your internal responses, taking steps to lower your heart rate, calm yourself down, and let the feelings subside. \n\nAs Dr. Spielberger notes, "when none of these three techniques work, that's when someone—or something—is going to get hurt." \n\nAnger Management \n\nThe goal of anger management is to reduce both your emotional feelings and the physiological arousal that anger causes. You can't get rid of, or avoid, the things or the people that enrage you, nor can you

There are many things that can make someone angry, each of us is so different, that is why the degree of anger is also different. Some people may tolerate certain indisgressions and some may not.  The degree of tolerance is a very important aspect that can determine how much anger a person can, or may feel, and also may indicate how much control of anger a person can manage.  Maturity, Self-confidence, discipline, psychological and emotional fitness, may establish a person's ability to control his or her anger, and cope with it. Violence is anger without control and without proper logic. It is a pure irrational physical interpretation of one's fear, insecurity and vulnerability. Coping with anger is dependent on the person's abilility to figure things out for himself/herself and resolve his/her anger by using proper logic and discipline in managing ones emotional state. Often we seek advice from trusted acquiantances, just be careful, and think of what advise is being given, because they are mainly opinions of someone who may not really understand what you may be feeling, or angry about in the first place, it is very hard to assume that anyone person can help you with your anger. It is good to share your thoughts about your anger with someone you trust, but you cannot expect them to solve your anger. Only you can exercise proper rationality on your own anger and try to resolve it without violence by having self-confidence, disciplne, mature rationality, knowing what is good to do, and not to do something bad.  By doing so, you can show to everyone that you are a mature and responsible human being, and serve as a good example for everyone to follow.\n~meow

Being angry or getting angry  -  is it Negative? \nThis topic affords a very lively discussion in any group. \nAnger as such is both an asset and a liability when taken to or beyond logical ends. \nIt is an intense emotion when  some times or at times, one loses control over self and wins an argument and loses the friendship, which he values most. Then starts regret and remorse.\nSome other time, anger is an asset, the onset of which, keeps others in check and controls the situation by itself. Only thing is that it should not last long, enough to disturb the possessor.\nAlong the line, the group can also discuss "Short-temper" and its positives and negatives. How it is different from anger etc.,

Argumentative, and the tendency to nag.  You can't blame us totally, it's anatomy.  When confronted with an adverse situation, the portion of our brain which lights up is the portion responsible for conversing.  A man on the other hand, the portion that lights up is the "combat mode."  \n\nSo in a fight, a man would eventually want to slap a girl who can't stop talking.  Now I hope you guys understand us better.

Actually, the tongue is the strongest muscle in the body and each and every person, regardless of race, has the maximum flexibility of that muscle so long as they use it. Learning languages has more to do with HEARING than it does with the tongue. Age has more to do with the ease of learning a new language than anything else. Children under the age of 4 can learn 10 or more languages AT ONCE. Teenagers can learn 2 to 3 at one time. Adults are hard pressed to learn more than one at a given time.

I've learned to choose my battles wisely.  Sometimes biting my tongue and walking away is the better choice even if I feel awful afterward.  It is harder to talk with my feet in my mouth than it is to walk with my feet on the ground.  And believe me....both my mouth and my feet are too big for their own good.
