Or increse your risk of heart attack. You decide.

Bloomberg reports that Men who suppress their anger about unfair treatment at work are two to five times more likely to suffer a heart attack or die from heart disease than those who quickly vent their frustration, a Swedish study shows.

There were no stats on how dealing with the fallout from workplace venting will affect your health. Added to which, scientists were unable to identify the best way to respond – similar rates of heart complications were found among men who said they yelled, protested their treatment directly, talked to the offender right away or addressed the problem after the situation had calmed down.

Simmering office lust might also have its downside – the report adds:

Scientists have long speculated that anger or arousal that “boils under the surface” may cause physical reactions like high blood pressure and related ailments, the researchers said.

No detail was provided on what sort of arousal they were referring to so we took the liberty of speculating.
