If you are wondering how to identify mental illness, emotional regulation can be a good place to start. Millions of people live with anxiety, but only 36.9% actually get treatment. Experiencing some anxiety, like situational anxiety, can be normal. Many people feel anxious before a stressful event, like a job interview. Anxiety can be a symptom of conditions like generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder or social anxiety.
Like anxiety, anger is a normal emotion. Anyone can feel angry, but extreme anger that feels out of your control could mean you have an underlying mental health condition. For example, depression can cause people to become irritable. Anger is also a common symptom of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
