Anger, is a chemical response that affects the whole body, it is brought on by simple thoughts, that are usually fear based, that is , the root of the thought is a fear of losing something or someone. The main problem with anger, is the chemical rush created by the brain, clouds rational thought. Someone who is angry, is usually focused on a narrow veiw, and doesn't seem to see the whole picture. Anger is probably the main cause of death on the planet (wars, riots, suicide bombing..etc...). On a small note, A news story goes, a man on a Golf course, makes a bad shot, or a lot of bad shots, he throws his club, it breaks, bounces off a tree , hits him in the neck, he died before reaching the hospital!! The main thing to think first, is what happened, worth getting angry over, usually not!!

Answer 5

Depending on whether it is violence from someone else or to someone else, and how well you know this person the first effect is the physical implications. It can cause a great strain on the bodys organs if serious internal injuries are sustained. Medium / minor are of course still serious but have less serious implications on the body's functions. In very serious cases of high damage or consistent violence can cause mental difficulties

Violence from someone else to someone else could still have an emotional impact on anyone. It can cause an emotional response or trigger feelings which dependant on the seriousness can cause serious problems.

If it is violence from yourself to someone else you have the morality to consider. Is what you're doing fair and right? You can also make yourself a bigger target of violence, especially revenge.

Artificial violence (Violence in games, Soap Operas, films and other non-real situations) can potentially encourage violence within the artificial environment and in severe cases can expand in to violence within the real world.

Answer 6

• The physical effects of anger can release adrenalin and the heart pounds; the body muscles tense up and blood pressure can go up; the whole body is in a state of tension. If the person is angry for a few moments; a day or a couple of days and the anger subsides then the body relaxes and the anger disappears, but they often feel drained and tired. However, if the person insists on carrying constant anger with them then their body is always seized up from that anger and can lead to health issues.
