According To Research, Anger Increases When You Don't Have Time For Yourself

YOGYAKARTA Turns out to take care of yourself and taking advantage of me time is important. According to research, taking time alone is beneficial for mental health and health relationships with loved ones. For some people, having time me is not difficult. It is even considered a luxury, to sit on the terrace and enjoy a cup of tea listening to natural voices.

Lack of self-awareness can be caused by many factors. For example, because of many demands, it becomes the backbone of the family, or because it has to meet the needs. Therefore, you don't have time to think, sort out emotions, and focus your mind after a tense day. In the study reported by Psychology Today, Thursday, February 20, psychologist Robert J. Coplan noted that people who get high scores in loneliness experience a decline in welfare when they don't get enough time for themselves. Especially those who have a higher stress rate and an increase in symptoms of depression.

Recent research, loneliness or having time for yourself is a basic psychological necessity to reconcile, both with the couple and the tensions experienced. Researchers Julie Sweats and Cathy Cox argued that anger and aggression might be felt for logical reasons. This can happen when psychological needs are not met. For example feeling respected or accepted.

In the context of relationships, one has a high score of anger and aggression because they feel alone when in a romantic relationship rather than single people. Chances are, single people know that they can solve their own problems by taking the time for themselves. But for someone who is in a relationship, a lot of valuable self-time for romantic couples and this triggers feelings of anger and aggression.

Research also shows that a person needs to get the right balance between enjoying their own time and with their partner. If too much time is alone, it means that the ratio is not balanced.

Researchers conclude, aggression can be anger when it has no time to regulate its emotions. They have very few resources left to be the best of them. The findings of this study are quite valuable, said Virginia psychologist assistant professor of psychology Thomas, Ph.D. Because it powers as validation for those of us who feel alone and reminds of the importance of taking time alone for the sake of the common good of ourselves, mental health, and the health of the relationship.
