ANGER – HOW IT AFFECTS BRAIN AND BODY – HOW TO CONTROL YOUR NEGATIVE THINKING AND ANGER

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME THINKING ABOUT WHAT OTHERS THINK OR SAY ABOUT YOU. CONTROL YOUR THINKING AND FEAR BECAUSE YOU CAN'T CONTROL OTHERS

Prof. Abdul Samad

99% of people prefer to waste their time thinking about what others think, what they react, and what they say about me. Unfortunately, this kind of thinking can only arouse fear, create hurdles and disrupt the process of creative and positive thinking.

So when you are on the right way, doing something great, maintaining the quality of your thinking and actions, it does not matter how others perceive it. Once you achieve your goals, reach your destination, and prove your success, the majority will be on your side. So it would be best if you focused on what you want to do, not what others want you to do by their actions or remarks.

Remember, you can't control others, you can't change others, but you can control what you think and what you do. So use this power of control to avoid others' responses, to focus your energies around your goals, and to show the world that you can do what you want despite opposing forces all around.

Unconfirmed feelings about what others think about us generate anger, and anger plays a major role in our inability to control our thoughts, which leads us to fall short of our goals. Before you can get over your anger, you must first understand how it affects our brain and how we can control it naturally.

HOW ANGER AFFECTS ON BRAIN AND BODY [INFOGRAPHIC]

We all know that anger is destructive for our health, but few understand how it happens on the mental, physical and behavioral levels. So today, we decided to discuss the anger effects on the brain and body to know how it affects people, their health, happiness, success, and above all, their family and relationships

Below, we will share an infographic in small parts and information given in the text to easily understand the effects of anger.

Let's start...

Here is what happens to your brain when you get angry and how anger changes the brain as a whole.

• 1- The first spark of anger activates Amygdala.
• 2- Amygdala activates the hypothalamus.
• 3- Hypothalamus signals Pituitary gland (by secreting CRT – corticotropin-releasing hormone).
• 4- The pituitary gland activates the Adrenal gland (by secreting ACTH – adrenocorticotropic hormone).
• 5- Adrenal gland secretes stress hormones (like Cortisol, adrenaline, noradrenaline).

HOW DO THE ABOVE CHANGES AFFECT THE BRAIN ACTIVITY?

Increased secretion of Cortisol (stress hormone) makes neurons accept too much calcium, resulting in neuron's killing + decreased Serotonin (happiness hormone) level.

Neurons' killing directly impacts the functioning of the Prefrontal Cortex (PFC) and Hippocampus. The suppressed activity of PFC leads to the inability to make the right decisions. And suppressed activity in Hippocampus weakens the short-term memory and prevents the formation of new memories properly.

Decreased level of Serotonin causes the feeling of anger/pain, which leads to either aggression or depression.

Result: An angry person can't make the right decisions and can't make good plans for the future. He can't remember what to say during the argument due to weak short-term memory. As a result, he feels aggressive or depressed with severe pain/sorrow. Also, it leads to headaches or migraines.
