and is this the main cause of "mental problems" later?
which other types of problems can this cause, physically as well?
please explain and describe
and is there anger often times "Suppressed" rather than "Repressed"??
how come and how is this different or affects them different?
is suppression of their natural feelings or emotions like similar to "brain washing" someone?
please explain if so and how common in child abuse cases
thanks for your answers!
Whilst anger is a big problem for a lot of people, mainly because it’s the least socially accepted emotion, I think it’s very hard to say it’s the cause of mental health problems.
There are so many things that happen to people on a daily basis that weave a rich tapestry ultimately creating an individual that to try and narrow it down to repressed anger is kinda missing the point. What, for example, makes that person repress their anger?
Sometimes it’s because anger isn’t accepted or tolerated well. Sometimes it’s because people aren’t taught as a child how to express anger appropriately, sometimes a child learns than when they do show anger their caregiver rejects them. There are a thousand and one reasons why people supress their anger.
What physical problems can anger cause; raised heart rate, raised blood pressure, stroke, cardiac problems, digestive problems. Look up Type A personalities and related health conditions for further information.

A’ight personally i do hold my emotions back and the effect are:
Poor Social Skills
Inability to make decisions
Depression
Alcohol Abuse ( I’m just a teenager so i do not fall for this act)
Drugs
Paranoia
Most people do hold back their emotions because in my case I’m seen as a weak person and the "loser" so me acting tough would be seen as a joke.
