​Anger Management

    ​★★★★★ Testimonial 2021 Relationship Issues with Time Line Therapy:
Ghita identified that I had issues with authority after a relaxed chat. Returned for a 1.5 hour session to experience a monumental shift. Feels like a sack of spuds has been lifted from my shoulders. I feel lighter in my joints and have continued to benefit by applying my new found calm when dealing with everybody, especially when guide my colleagues at work. I shall return for another session soon, to peel off the next layer. Ghita has a gift, enjoy! - Michael (Brisbane)
Do you find yourself consumed with anger a significant amount of the time? Do you loop over and over again which effects your day? Do you feel like there are unresolved issues that manifest themselves in feelings of anger, aggression or frustration?

And as you probably know, medications are not a long-term solution because, they come with many side effects. Our view is that anger issues and therefore health issues can be significantly reduced by modalities like Time Line Therapy™, NLP,  Hypnotherapy and Gestalt Therapy.

Many medical studies have found that anger has a bad effect on health. A Harvard Medical School study looked at a group of people who presented with chronic or passive anger, overwhelmed or self-inflicted anger, judgemental anger or volatile anger, in other words a vast array of presentations of anger.

Why Do We Get Angry?
Anger is often associated with frustration – things don’t always happen the way we want and people don’t always behave the way we think they should. Anger is the by-product of not feeling in control and not have our needs met. You may be feeling protective, frightened, disappointed, worried, embarrassed or frustrated, but may express these feelings as anger. Anger releases tension, but only gives relief in the short-term.

In fact, men and women often express emotion in different ways. Often men find it harder to express or understand the feelings underneath the anger, like hurt, fear, sadness or grief. For women the reverse may often be true – the anger gets buried through internalisation, emotional eating, ruminating, or other coping methods of expression. When a person is feeling vulnerable, sad or powerless, they may act out in a more powerful way with anger. Anger is useful for expressing the unexpressable, such as shame or embarassment. 

​​When is Anger a Problem?
Anger is a secondary emotion. If a person avoids fully feeling a primary emotion (such as sadness) and uses anger instead, it causes problems with relationships, jobs, authority, parenting and life in general. Anger is also a problem when other people around you are frightened, hurt or feel they cannot talk to you or disagree with you in case you become angry.

Anger triggers your adrenal glands to secrete adrenaline, the fight or flight response. This can lead to adrenal fatigue and the following health issues. Other scientific studies have linked inflammation in the body with aggression, anger and impulsivity. Inflammation is a serious health problem and can manifest as arthritis, fibromyalgia, allergies and auto immune diseases. High cortisol also eats up serotonin... the feel good and coping hormone.

Short Term Affects of Anger:
  • Anxiety
  • Nausea
  • Headaches
  • Muscle pain
  • Muscle tension
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Memory problems

Long Term Affects of Anger:
  • Chronic sleep disorders
  • Memory loss
  • High blood pressure
  • Digestive problems
  • Heart attack
  • Stroke
  • Depression

​Why am I Angrier Than Ever Before?
The human nervous system is part of the reptilian brain and part of our survival design. The fight or flight response in humans is automatic. When anger gets set off more often than in the past, it is because you have become hypersensitive and the mind has created short-cut highways to anger. This can be because of worn neurons (stress) and fatigued adrenal glands​, a lack of serotonin ( or GABA), a bad diet, or new automatic highways designed to protect you faster. However, those highways will need retraining to change.

When Should I Do Something About it?
  • Anger involves verbal, emotional, physical or psychological abuse.
  • Anger is triggered easily.
  • People close to you are worried about your anger.
  • Anger is leading to problems with personal relationships and work.
  • You think you have to get angry to get what you want.
  • Anger seems to get bigger than the event that set it off.
  • Anger is chronic: It lasts well after the triggering event has passed.
  • You are becoming anxious or depressed about your anger.
  • You are using alcohol or other drugs to try to manage your anger.
  • You are getting angry with the people who are closest to you, not the people who sparked off your anger in the first place.
