Video Questions on Anger and Stress

1. Do you feel that you are "low hostile" or " high hostile"?
I think that I am a low hostile person because I would rather avoid complications.
2. What do you feel are "aggressors" in your life? Aggressors in my home life are the health and happiness of my grandchildren, bills, my husband's health, our job security, my parent's health and well being, and my pets. At school? Tests, deadlines, people who cheat, and professors who let people do things that are wrong with no retribution.
3. Out of the three patients the doctors are researching, which one do you think is "high hostile" and "angry"? The man was the most effected by anger and stress.
4. What do these findings suggest to you about your own lifestyle? I need to remove as many of the stressors in my life as possible. I also need to try not to get worked up over things that I cannot change.
5. What are the negative medical effects the research team discovered happens from a "high hostile" and "angry" person? The person's blood pressure shoots up, the arteries to the heart become clogged, and they have strokes or heart attacks more often.
