This may seem like a strange question, but I have noticed a whole lot of really senseless anger on Curezone lately. Its just a few people, but they blow up at the slightest hint that another person may not agree with them. In addition, it seems like a lot of old grudges are being brought up again. Why is this, what is going on?

I see the same thing in the real world of course, road rage, impatience in stores and other public places, families in turmoil. I know stress plays a part. I am under incredible stress myself right now with both financial and health problems. I am a more inner directed person and most of the time my stress is manifested by depression, emotional eating, and headaches. However, it seems like more and more people are simply "losing it" and becoming angry and irrational.

What do you think is causing this kind of irrational anger? Is it the holidays, the junk food pushed at us, the political situation, or is it something else? I must say, it seems like some people thrive on creating drama and tension-but why?

Sorry if this seems like a strange thing to ask in a health forum, but rage cannot be good for our health whether we are the one who is raging or the one on the receiving end.
