I've been reading some interesting things about abusive people, and one of the things that keeps coming up is this yelling thing. Yelling at someone apparently triggers (without us knowing it) chemicals released into our brain that are identical to those released when we're physically hit. In other words, being yelled at is almost identical to physical abuse (excaept the bruises).
This is probably oversimplifying, but ever since I read this I've been trying to figure out what to do with yellers. I work in a place where the ED is very, very loud even though she is fairly decent as a person, not unreasonable, etc. but every time she talks, she yells. Her secretary is one of those short loud women who don't know what they're talking about (has admitted it to me) is very friendly, but yells when she is confused and yells and manipulates to test people's knowledge.
I feel this needs to be fixed, I certainly don't want to put up with it, and I don't feel I should have to. Hope you all can help me figure out what to do, or I can help you.
Maybe this web site is useful.
