Psychology: Anger

Overall results

   62

  

Your overall anger score is rather high. You seem to get angry more often than the average individual does. Perhaps the scenarios on the test rubbed you the wrong way. Whatever the case, learning to control your anger would likely prove beneficial. Anger is a firecracker of an emotion, and can have serious repercussions on your health and relationships. Some things just aren't worth getting worked up about!

Sadly, this result is relatively accurate.  For those in my family, our tempers are sharp as a whip.  On most subjects, the women of my family are easy going and can shrug off what seems like almost anything and everything the world can throw at us.  But when the world least expects it, our tempers flare.  I, myself, am no different than the rest of the women in my family.  I can be laid back and easy going, but gods forbid someone step on my last nerve.

My anger result seems to coincide with my stress level, which is shown in the second quiz on this paper.  For the most part, my stress level is pretty even.  There are points where I’m about at boiling point, but there are also points where I generally could care less on which way the winds blow.

From experience, my anger is usually directed to people who are a constant irritation in my life.  So it’s a general rule in my family that once you’ve gotten on my bad side, the grudge will live on for years, and nothing you can do or say will matter.  So far, there are about 5 people within my family or married into that are dead to me, and about 5 who aren’t related in the least who are, again, dead to me.  These are the people that if they talked to me, I wouldn’t hear them.  But if I got into just how much I can grow to dislike a person…well, lets just say that when my brother says there’s a place in hell reserved for me, you might just think he was right.

Challenge

   45

  

Hardships and challenges in your life occasionally throw you for a loop. At times, you get upset, unmotivated or frustrated in the face of change, failure, or other barriers to your goals. It would be healthier for you in the long run if you learned to consistently view setbacks as a challenge, a game to beat, an opportunity, or as a way to learn something new. People who view setbacks as a challenge rather than a hardship are usually able to move forward from difficult situations sooner, they learn from their mistakes, and are more flexible with their plans in life.

Stress is a natural factor in the lives of my family, to the point that most of us strive in the face of stress when it comes to something we are actually interested in.  This, however, has another side to it.  If there is something the members of my family (myself included) don’t like to do, then stress can just as easily weigh us down.

For me, personally, I’d say stress has a pretty good hand in my life, though my apathetic views tend to blind me of it to a certain extent.  I can agree for the most part on these results, because there are definitely times where I just look around and say “Forget this.” And walk off without so much as a glance.  This is particularly prominent in activities such as schooling.  





The general idea is I’m paying for it, it’s my money to waste, if I’m unhappy doing something then I’m not going to do it.  If my interest can’t be met and all I have to show for it is a low D because I was bored out of my mind, then put me out of my misery.  I can live the rest of my life without that extra money I spent on the class.

On that same note, if you catch me at work or what not, I generally have things under control.  After estimating how much time I have to work with (going around classes and what not), then it’s easy to pick out what to do first, be it filing folders, calling the clients, etc. etc.

As far as my health status goes, no I’m not all that concerned.  I am probably going to have diabetes in the future, along with kidney failure, cancer, some bizarre skin disease, and I’ll probably need my appendix and gallbladder removed sooner or later.  I also have a chance on possessing a tumor which could be cancerous (something my aunt had, which was a knot behind her left ear for years…something my mother and I both have now).  On top of that, I enjoy McDonalds at least once a week, a pack of cigarettes a day, at least a glass of alcohol, and take a mixture of caffine pills and aspirin to cope with classes.  Really?  Health is not one of my main concerns.  If I can die before I get too old to do the basic functions I can do today, then gods bless me, that’s how it was meant to be.

Now according to the results, I should probably not be quite as apathetic as I am today, but so far as I’m concerned, everyone deals with stress differently.  This is how I deal with it.
