5 Terrible Physical Changes Caused by Frequently Getting Angry, Revealed by Neuroscientists

Anger management disorder must be avoided. You must learn to control your anger well and live by saying "I manage my anger well." This is because such clear brain science and physiological changes occur. There is nothing good about getting angry.

 

➊ 심장마비에 걸린다

 

Harvard University research team has revealed that when emotions explode, the likelihood of having a heart attack increases fivefold, and the risk of stroke triples. Shouting or getting angry causes the brain to release neurotransmitter adrenaline, which triggers these physical reactions. Blood pressure rises, and the heart's pumping function becomes more difficult. If you have heart disease or diabetes, you need to be even more cautious. If your heart is weak, take a moment to step away from the problem and take deep breaths when you feel anger rising.

 

It becomes ugly.

 

There is a study that suggests people who frequently get angry look less attractive. Since there are multiple studies, it is a somewhat proven fact. Medical professionals in the United States and Brazil have discovered that when people get angry, the hormone 'glucocorticoid,' which reduces collagen levels, decreases, increasing the likelihood of skin conditions such as dermatitis or psoriasis. The more one gets angry, the more their face becomes saggy, wrinkled, and dry.

The brain ages.

 

When you get angry, blood rushes to your head, and a large amount of oxygen is supplied to the brain, causing an increase in intracranial pressure. Anger is the brain's way of signaling a brake to protect itself, screaming "Unbearable!" as a warning. The brain, overwhelmed by the excess blood, shuts down to return to its normal state. It takes up to an hour for intracranial pressure to decrease and for the brain to operate efficiently again. If this process repeats too often, the brain's brakes can fail. As we age, the decline of the cerebral cortex function accelerates the aging process more than others. To slow down brain aging, it is advantageous not to get angry.

It triggers panic disorder.

 

The area of the brain responsible for emotions has existed since humans were mammals. In particular, the region responsible for 'anger' has developed to allow the perception of fear, hatred, despair, and other emotions simultaneously in order to protect the body from threatening natural environments. Frequently getting angry naturally stimulates this area, triggering feelings of fear, hatred, and despair. There is a hypothesis that the reason why people who continuously perform emotional labor often experience panic disorder, characterized by feelings of fear and despair, is related to this.

 

Become a foolish person

 

Neuroscientist Jeong Jae-seung once said on a broadcast that the reason why we shouldn't get angry easily is because "if you think about who you mostly get angry at, the reason becomes clearer." Anger is mainly an emotion expressed towards very close and loved ones. Because we perceive others as almost ourselves, we want to control that emotion, and when we fail to do so, we become angry. The more anger we show, the more likely we are to hurt those close to us and become someone who wounds others. Let's stop being angry.

I thought it would be nice to keep it in my heart, so I brought it.

There will be many times in life when you get angry, but the anger that suddenly rises up.

Take a few deep breaths and try to slow down your tempo.

Have a joyful day filled with lots of smiles today as well^^
