That's why our old people are so angry! Everything is due to neglect, indifference and inattention.

Have you ever encountered older people who are unhappy with everything? Often this is the type of old people who sit frowning at the entrance, rude to strangers in transport and make scandals about small things in the markets and shops.





Why do they not live peacefully? Why does any behavior of young people cause them only anger and irritation? And what do the relatives of these old robbers do? To these questions tried to give an exhaustive answer to the psychotherapist Andrey Strelchenko.





Why are older people so angry?

“Anger is a sign heightened vulnerabilityOld people are the most vulnerable segment of society, especially in our country.

But anger can be connected not only with fear. It is also one of the easiest and most effective ways to attract attention.”





Is it possible to attract attention in another way?

“Anger is the simplest and most natural reaction that comes from our animal nature. For ancient man, aggression served as an important defense mechanism. It is this reaction that has allowed us to survive.”





And positive emotions, such as joy, fun, admiration, tenderness, etc., are no longer the manifestation of animals, but of human feelings, which arose much later, with the development of civilization. It is therefore possible to trace a direct connection between the spiritual development of man and the character of his emotions.”





The doctor also insists that most of our pensioners have lived extremely difficult lives: constant lack of money, crises, experiences and personal trauma left an indelible imprint on their psyche.





Another expert, Vadim Giglot, PhD, argues that sometimes aggressive behavior can develop against the background of senile dementia, or dementia. In this case, it is important to convince the sick person to consult a psychiatrist or gerontologist.





If the anger of a loved one is caused not by a disease, but by a psycho-emotional state (a feeling of loneliness, anxiety, uselessness to loved ones), it is important to show patience and try to surround him with care. You should call more often, visit, please with pleasant little things. After some time, the old scandalist will surely thaw.
