Underlying sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea and insomnia can make you irritable and angry. However, you can also start a cycle of disturbed and insufficient sleep by harboring resentment and anger. A number of studies have confirmed that chronic insomnia is often due to suppressed anger.

Depression is a very common reason for sleep disturbance. Note that depression is anger turned inwards. In fact, feeling angry is a key symptom of depression. Any resentment can cause a downward spiral of insufficient sleep. The more anger you experience during the day, the more sleep difficulties you will face at night. Managing anger is, therefore, very important for your sleep health. Poor sleep health in turn is associated with accidents, a weakened immune system, weight gain, heart disease, diabetes and sexual problems.

Aside from affecting your sleep health, inappropriate anger management (whether it is aggressive or suppressive), can lead to heart attacks, stroke, cancer, depression or asthma.
