Why are people so angry?

[Aliciaworld]

Most times, we are surprised at the rate at which people express anger especially over trivial matters and we start to wonder if what happened was all there is or there are other details we're not aware regarding the matter. Well, most times what a person express might be as a result of accumulated frustration mostly transfer of aggression that might have resulted from economic hardship, injustice and discrimination etc Also, it might be as a result of environmental factors such as being raised in a hostile environment where your parents tempers usually flare over trivial matters, as you grow older, you are more likely to respond to life's problems with anger...

Possible.

But why not say they are just pissed off over something so they react in the way, angry is also a natural emotion and everyone have certain range when it comes to showing them. Anger doesn't solve anything so instead of showing anger just let them know what is bothering you in a clear way, which might solve things better.

Yes, anger is related to frustration. People have frustrations which have been growing stronger since they were children, due to having wishes and needs which were never supplied. As consequence, they become bitter and tend to get angry for banal reasons. In fact, banal reasons are just the spark to ignite the dormant fire inside themselves.

People are so exhausted that even minor events are enough to start a storm.

But why not say they are just pissed off over something so they react in the way

There are things which can't be solved just by saying. There are things which can't be solved easily at all.

It is possible, but usually anger is related to the character that is formed from an early age and will be even stronger if it has genes that basically have this emotional nature that will explode easily, like gas meets fire, of course it explodes quickly.
There are many forms of anger with different reasons, whether it's annoyance with someone, hostility, frustration with economic problems and others, there is always a reason as to why someone becomes angry, but certainly when someone has more control with their logic, they will not be easily emotional when they have problems or irritation.

You’re right, most times people react based on accumulated frustration, maybe if they’re being pressure because of money, family issues, work stress or even with the way things are going for them. So, anything that happened at that moment, they can transfer their aggression on you. Home training play a big role in shaping a persons character, some people grow up in a place were they see shouting and having anger  issues as a normal thing, why some people ain’t like that, they were trained to show and treat people with love. So, no excuse justifies a person way of reacting. You ain’t the only person going through a lot, learn how to control your emotions. I know that life is hard but you still need to work on yourself because there’s a better way to express your feelings, rather than transferring aggression on innocent people, that didn’t wrong you.

As we grow older we begin to learn and unlearn some thing's that we can say are not fitting to our current status,  I am aware that we are not in control of the environment or family we are born into, but we can decide to change something about our life as we growing up and becoming adult's that is the essence of education in the first place, so anger is something that have to build in growing up, your environment and other thing's contribute to how you manage life situations, but as you grow you decide to do away with somethings which anger is one of such things that the outcome is not always in a positive dimension.

An unhappy person is too quick to react to every little thing. Anger is a reaction we barely control. It takes someone with a different quality to actually control their anger when someone gets on their nerves. Anger doesn't show up out of nowhere. An individual might be going through stress, problems, health issues, marital issues, divorce, and many you can mention. That's the internal state, and when triggered by another individual, which becomes the external state, the mind and body cannot control it anymore.

Yes that is certainly correct,  some times we miss calculate things thereby  some unexpected expressions even where it is not needed to be shown but because we find it difficult controlling our feelings that is always the way things are resolved.
One thing I see that constantly repeats itself periodically is over reaction even when this are not supposed to be expressed in that manner. Anger is a very dangerous disease that causes destruction if not properly controlled as it is supposed to be done. The best way to handle situations is to express our feelings the way it is supposed to be and not misinterpreted because anger or other factors.

The truth is that life in general is getting harder no matter the location of anyone. There are various ways that people respond to same situation and this goes a long way to tell about such person's temperament. Sometimes the society where there is a report about injustice and public marginalisation. When such situation continues, there are folks that do not have enough cushion against agitation. This is why you should alsoind your jokes at all time. There are jokes that could result in fight or destruction of properties over irrelevant things. Sometimes it could be a misconception or outright dishonour. Living in a region where there's bad governance may go on to cause severe anger over little things too.

If we are consumed by anger at all times, then what society are we building, of course in cause of life situations, there are things that might cause us to be angry, that's why we shouldn't cause others to bear anger against us or harbour violence in their mind, else the victim of his reaction might not be the person that caused him to be angry, but it might be on the innocent persons of the society. So do what you would want others to do to you.

I wanted to jump into agreeing with these factors because they are definitely included in what makes people agree to react in a violent way especially economic hardship but on a second thought, I realized that there are also some people who will never be cool and happy. They are born that way. There temperament is that of being harsh almost all the time. This is how they are and there actions is judged as being harsh, annoying and tiring but that is the best part of them. So in same way that there are people who will not be unhappy but produce positive energy but someone else gives more of negative vibes. We see such people with negative vibes and energy even in countries with good economy.

Anything about life can lead to provocation and it is not possible that we see a condition that makes us to get angry and we try to avoid it without showing any sign, being angry is normal for anyone to got feast of by any situation in life, but also having the ability to maintain good composure is needed an also important at the same time, so that the more we are being provoked the more the calmness we are likely to have to suppress the anger in us, as we cannot do without getting people making us angry, but we can only choose how we react towards such condition whenever they appear.

[Exitoral]

I think personally, it mostly out of frustration. Someone planned something and it didn't go as planned. That can make some body unnecessarily angry.

Also, lack of finance can lead to someone getting angry too. A proverb said, an angry man is an hungry man.

Someone people, it can be that someone made them angry and they are angry with any body other than the person that got them angry.

It also depends on the environment which one grew up on. That also can make someone angry. Even though the person is not an angry person. His or her environment shaped that fellow to be angry.

Another instance people get angry unnecessarily is the internet. Everybody cursing on each other over small issue.

[BADecker]

It makes me so mad when people tell me I'm angry. I mean, can't a guy get some privacy?

When a person does not get something as he expects, he gets angry. When he sees that some irregularity is happening again and again, he cannot control his emotions and reacts in a way that is considered as anger. However, it is not possible to solve anything by getting angry in this way. Of course, everyone should work in such a way that it can be solved before it gets to the point of anger. When you are faced with any irregularity or something that you cannot accept, then you must tell others about it. If you tell them in advance where your anger or where the mistake is, then the anger that accumulates inside you will not remain, so there will be no way to get angry.

Yes, there's a reason behind why someone is angry when being asked to trivial matters. A lot of factors that they are carrying behind them and they cannot bear the weight of it. So, with how they react with simple things is likely the impact of it from themselves that they've been taking for so long. Really possible that as OP said, the accumulation of their frustration in life and there's a deeper reason why they are exploding with simple matters. There are people who are also not sensitive with things and don't know how to take care of someone's feelings.

[programmer3666]

A lot of times people are not really angry because of that small thing in front of them, it is just the final trigger. The real issue is all the stress they have been carrying. A simple real life example is someone who has been struggling with money, maybe salary is not enough, bills are piling up, transport is expensive. Then one small thing happens, like someone stepping on their foot or talking rudely and they just explode. To others it looks like overreaction, but it is actually built up frustration. Another angle again is a case of someone who grew up in a home where people always shouted. Even small issues become big arguments because that is what they are used to.

[BADecker]

^^^ Yeah. They're not angry with Trump. They're angry at their money problems.

People do react to things with anger for different reasons, some as a result of transfer of aggression, some a result of hardships, the kind of multidimensional hardships we are facing today and so on. Every individual also has the level of tolerance meaning the level at which they can withstand any form of hardships and if you know about such things then you should also plan yourself to protect yourself against several people anger. I have seen people who get angry because of the way you laugh with them or just simply the way you greet or even look at them. They easily pick offense on even the most little things and when you get close to such people, you have to be careful about how you relate with them not go gaslight the anger already burning in them.

[OgNasty]

I think most people are actually angry at themselves but direct it outwards at others. Who knows the reason they are disappointed with their lives, but this is why it is nice to surround yourself with happy successful people. They don’t try to blame you for their failures in life.
