Anger Management Vital To Promoting Good Health

A recent mental health report from the Office of the U.S. Surgeon General (U.S. Public Health Service) has its emphasis on prevention and health promotion. The Surgeon General, in a clarion call for prevention initiatives, stresses the importance of psycho-educational interventions in the community for a range of problems.

Anger Management is one such intervention, notable for its wide applicability to a variety of constituencies for both primary and secondary prevention. For example, Anger Management techniques are needed desperately by couples and individuals with anger issues, human resource personnel, business owners, managers and supervisors, employees, attorneys, physicians, hospital nursing staff, teachers, probation officers, correctional staff, police officers, high school and college students, counselors, community leaders, parents and people living in age restricted communities.

Community sites such as schools, social service organizations, churches, libraries, and social clubs provide convenient venues for workshops and classes. Most anger
management classes, group or private, are usually held in private provider's offices.

For some individuals, improved health may be an important incentive for participation.

A recent study at John Hopkins University found that most men who experienced heart attacks or strokes had problems managing anger. Thus unhealthy anger has serious health implications and needs to be addressed proactively.
