What should I do to stop being angered easily?

Cold (or lukewarm) showers, baths, or swims

Regular physical exercise of any kind

Allowing ourselves to feel our normal healthy aches and pains instead of numbing these with painkillers, comfort foods, and other means.

Phasing out alcohol, nicotine, marijuana, and recreational drugs

Trying to put yourself in other people’s shoes when they do something to make you upset: maybe that driver that cut you off is rushing to the hospital? Maybe that colleague that snapped at you is just having a really rough day? Maybe the person that insulted or criticized you is secretly envious of you?

Cutting back on mindless fun entertainment—e.g. music, video games, mindless social media feeds, TikTok videos, porn, etc.

What are the basic human needs according to psychology? What are the consequences of not meeting these needs?

If you suffer from excessive anger, the #1 thing I would recommend trying, which most people don’t realize may be connected to their anger / irritability, is to cut back on foods with sugar, alternative sweeteners, and salt. Most people consume a lot of these additives, often without realizing just how much is in the food they eat. Roughly 75% of grocery store items contain these additives as well as nearly 100% of restaurant foods. The only way to know is to read the ingredients and the nutrition facts labels (if any). If a food contains 0.5% or more sodium (by weight) or 15% or more sugar (again by weight), it’s too much. And eating such foods regularly has been scientifically proven to worsen anxiety, irritability, and depression (check out the studies SMILES, HELFIMED, and AMMEND). It may take a few weeks to see noticeable results, and your taste buds will probably protest until they adapt, but stick to it and you may find you will be richly rewarded—with much less anger, irritability, sadness, anxiety—even less chronic physical pain. Try it for yourself and find out!

Seeing a therapist to help us understand why we’re so angry and learn techniques to better handle our anger.

I hope this gives you some ideas of natural methods to explore. These approaches have changed my life—my own excessive irritability, anxiety, and depression are gone since 2010. Why not yours? 🙏🏼
