The root cause of anger, and all emotions for that matter. Is cognitive dissonance.
“I want to get laid.”
“I can’t get laid.”
“I’m an attractive guy.”
*someone calls you ugly*
If you’re talking to someone and you get angry it means that they’re telling you something that you disagree with and when your brain is receiving information that is inconsistent with what it already believes anger occurs.
And yes the same goes for happiness.
“I’m homeless and poor.”
“I just won the lottery.”
“I’m ugly.”
“No you’re beautiful”.
Notice how a billionaire won’t care if he won a million dollars and hot women don’t react at all to compliments of their looks.
