62 - Why Do I Get Angry So Fast?


Listen Later

In this episode, Anger Secrets host Alastair Duhs discusses the reasons why some people think they get angry fast.

These reasons include:

a) Unawareness of the buildup of anger

b) Learned habits of reacting with anger, and

c) Underestimating the speed of brain's information processing ability.

The episode also discusses the Tension Scale as a tool for recognising rising tension levels, discusses how to "unlearn" reacting with anger, and emphasises the use of cognitive speed to respond more positively in anger-inducing situations.
