What could cause someone to be angry all the time?!


Question:

What could cause someone to be angry all the time?

A close relative (in mid-20s) seems to be angry all the time. She meddles in other people's business and and is angry about decisions they make or things they do...none of which have anything to do with her. You just can't seem to ever please her. I'm confused and concerned. This has been going on for a few years, but has become increasingly worse in the past few months. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Answers:

This person sounds like she is extremely unhappy with herself, has a lack of love for herself and low self-esteem. Usually somebody so critical projects their unhappiness on others. She may have a chemical brain imbalance and needs medication, or she may just need counseling to find out the root of her hostility, negativity and anger. Many times it is connected to childhoold upbringing in which her parents may have made her feel unsupported, unworthy and unable. She may not be happy with her family life, job, marriage, children, etc. She may feel stuck in her situation and needs to identify and define what is causing her anger. It's difficult to approach somebody regarding this, but you could use another person that is not a family member possibly, but who could approach her in a tactful but candid way.
