Not Anger

I feel it is important to note, from my experience, true anger is not necessarily associated with mental illness, but rather comes from a place of very deep hurt within the heart. Other emotions and behaviors, such as irritability, are very much associated with mood instability, a variety of other illnesses, stressful life events or just plain “having a bad day.” Also, sometimes we can confuse irritability and anger, or they can both occur at the same time.
