Anger with anxiety?

[katie23]

Does anyone ever feel angry or agitated for no reason with anxiety like they are going to blow there top!? I've had this all day grrr

[paulaf]

I have found that I get angry at being anxious - like at the situation, at myself but have felt agitated in the past due to changing meds and sometimes PMS. Do you think it could be one of those things?

[onceagain]

no I feel angry not due to the anxiety but due to things that bring on the anxiety, I am left to fester in it and then when I can hold it in no more I react...

This can work either way with anxiety,you can either ignore too much and be a doormat or explode at tiny things,go overboard,see red,mist over with anger,react irrational......yes i suffer too

[Oddfish]

All the time! There's something link in my brain between anxiety and anger. When I get really overwhelmed I always cry and completely lose my temper to the point of raving lunacy. Most of the time I am snappy and on edge when I feel anxious and stressed. It's worse with PMS.

If you place someone in a box and close the lid so they feel over stressed, trapped and afraid making them feel there's no escape, I think they'd feel aggitated, frustrated and angry too.:winks:

Sometimes to ease anger, we need to find ways of pushing the lid off so that we can escape the stress we're living with.:hugs:

I get downright pissed off at my anxiety at times.

That's a good attitude! BE angry with it.:mad: TELL it to leave you alone. TELL it to piss off! Prove to yourself you're not scared of it! TELL it to do whatever it likes because you DON'T care!:lac: BE the boss! You'll soon frighten it off!:winks:

Yes, I have this from time to time. It's more due to frustration with myself..I am very hard on myself. I get real angry with the anxiety, at times...more so now ..

I wish you good luck!
