A hungry man is an angry man.

I feel the same, I get mad when I am hungry, when I dine out or eat in restaurants that serve long, i make it a point to be there and order before my stomach gets hungry, at this time I can prevent myself from getting mad at slow service and being irrational, yes I am very irrational when I am hungry, I have read somewhere that we should not decide on empty stomach, I don't know why and I did not bother to know, because I know I am irrational when I am hungry and I don't make decision during empty stomachs.

Well, I don't get angry when I am hungry...probably because I'm not a man...lol Jokes aside....I eat little and I'm not hungry as often as other people. But even if I am , I usually don't get easily irritated because of it. But I know what you mean because that's how my husband is. There have been way too many incidents that have proved this in his case (and can you imagine that I haven't learnt my lesson yet and still make him go hungry sometimes?)

I cannot be angry when I am hungry.I become so week and I literally beg for the food with my wife. On the other hand the hunger of the poor who keep watching the careless spending and the callous attitude of the worthless rich is the cause of the simmering anger in them.

This is very, very true alok. And an interesting thing to know is that prisons keep their inmates well fed at all times using the same reasoning! People that are always well fed have a far less chance of acting up. I am not someone who goes long periods without eating so it is not something I generally have to worry about. But there has been the odd occasion when I have been travelling for a while and haven't eaten and I definitely do start to get irritable! On the flip side, I have become irritable from eating too much before also!

I prefer not to go for a task empty stomach. I feel uneasy if I am empty stomach and I am required to do some work. I feel it is better to have something, may be less in quantity, may be some liquid like milk or tea etc., before start doing anything. The one who is hungry will not able to complete his task because he would first think about his hunger and how to satisfy it, so if one is required to get his work done from a fellow who is hungry, he should arrange for something for him to satiate his hunger and then may request him for work. It is also true that a hungry member will get angry sooner than later.

Hello alokn... I'm one who gets really testy when I'm stomach-grumbling and head-pounding hungry. I get really annoyed when I go into a restaurant and have to wait for people to make up their minds when I'm already in my mind, starving! I don't really have a set meal schedule. I just eat when I feel hungry. Sometimes I won't start eating until 3pm and that's breakfast for me even if I've been up since 8am. I have to work on this.

Yes i did realise this a couple of years ago, also a few other triggers: 2.when someone wants to use the loo they tend to get angry (proof : potty training is recommended early on in a babys life cos its observed that babies get most naughty just before they need to "go") a lot of people dont realise this one! 3.If its an extreme of climate/ some other discomfort in clothing, settings, etc. 4.When the water levels in ones body are low, crankiness and eventual anger pops up 5.Inability to handle/ address small irritations lead to an explosion at the wrong time or on the wrong person.

I think it's important to have meals when you are hungry but a little deprivation will mean no harm because it will increase our patience. That's why there are religions who promotes fasting as a way to increase control you have on your own self. ^^

This a funny discussion,i always experience this situation,you are right,hungry man is an angry man,haha,my temper will be high because of hungry,i can't explain,maybe physiology decide psychology,if you don't appease your stomach,your stomach just control your temper,and make it bigger,haha!!So i have a plan of eating,and eat on time.

I don't ten to get angry or frustrated when i am hungry but i find it really difficult to concentrate if i am hungry! i know if i am in a lecture and i feel hungry i find it really difficult to pay attention to what is being said or to remember any of it afterwards because i am too busy thinking about my rumbling tummy!!! hehe xxx

I get irritated easily when I'm hungry and I don't know why! Maybe because I focus more in my stomach grumbling, instead of other things, lol. I have a habit to eat in the certain time even though sometimes I'm not really hungry, I know it's just all in my head, but the head is so powerful sometimes, lol. When I'm going out, like renewing visa or have to travel for hours in a car I'll make sure that I have biscuit or any snacks in my purse, lol.

My hubby is like that, you can't talk to him when he is hungry and he is grumpy and cranky when he does. I guess it has something to do with the sugar level in our blood or so. As for me, I am not, I don't get mad when I am hungry.

yes, this i believed to the statement that a hungry man is an angry man. why? because i usually act like this before. I try to get rid of this attitude but sometimes it keeps coming back..You know guys we couldn't really escape anger if we are hungry the reason why i am bringing foods wherever i go. Sometimes i may not noticed that voice is becoming bigger and my facial expressions is becoming different when i'm talking with somebody else, that's if i couldn't control anymore my emotions whenever i am hungry.

hi alokn i think its natural to get angry or get irritated easily when you are hungry. sometimes when when hungry we can not think well. not just we get angry, sometimes we even cant understand what we are doing or what we are listening to. take care

I get really testy when I am hungry, and feel sorry for my fiance when I am like this. Most of the time we will be out somewhere and with no money to stop and grab a bite to eat. Other times he wants to have a conversation with me and I ignore him, yell that I am hungry and leave the room. After I eat though I feel much better and profusely apologize for being so angry. Now, as for an schedule, sometimes that can be hard when your busy or out, or at work where sometimes the work schedule even fluctuates, including break time!

Yes it happens to me too, and i think it is just natural because we need food for survival and in order to survive we must fight. That's what I'm thinking because maybe before food was easily accessible, humans have to fight hard for their food and maybe a little anger from hunger makes it easier for them to hunt for food. Maybe it goes too in our modern times.

This is more appropriate to a person who has been deprived of food for a long period fo time. A poor man who has not been getting food and has been constantly on the hunger path. They have a certain pent up anger which is bound to be vent when they are given a chance. Missing one odd meal or being late fo rlunch does not really convert to anger.
