It is also called "anger" and "irritability" and should belong to the category of diseases. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, "the liver is just dirty, happiness is depressed, and ambition is angry." This means that the liver belongs to a strong and irritable organ, and prefers comfortable and soft emotions to depressed emotions, and its emotional performance is mainly anger.

The causes of liver depression and qi stagnation are mostly depression, mental stimulation or injury history caused by fine trauma. Such as celery, chrysanthemum, tomato, radish, orange, grapefruit, citrus, citron, bergamot and so on. Syndrome of hyperactivity of liver fire is very angry.

The causes of liver-fire inflammation are mostly chronic stagnation of liver-qi, or excessive smoking and drinking, or excessive eating of sweet, fat and spicy things. In addition to quitting smoking and limiting alcohol, avoid eating sweet, fat and spicy food, but also eat more foods that clear the liver and purge heat in moderation. Anger caused by spleen deficiency and liver hyperactivity also manifests as fatigue, anorexia, abdominal distension, bilateral pain, loose stool and other symptoms.
