Can You Get Angry at an Illness?

An individual can absolutely become angry over an extended illness especially if there is difficulty treating it or finding the right physician.

All illnesses are stresses upon us. Stresses that are unresolved can and often do lead to frustration which if unresolved can lead to the angry response.

Anger is the response people exhibit when they sense they’re being attacked. That attack can come verbally or physically from another person or from any stressful or emotional situation.

Stress Management is a component of our Anger Management program. The best way to tackle stress is to get regular non-competitive exercise like walking, swimming, running, cycling etc. Exercising causes the release of certain chemicals in the body called endorphins which make us feel good long after the exercise session is over.

If your illness allows, some exercise can be very useful in relieving the stress and anger at an illness.

If your illness does not allow exercise we have several options to help relieve your stress.
