FRUSTRATION


2/17

“Frustration is an emotion that occurs in situations

where a person is blocked from reaching a desired

outcome. In general, whenever we reach one ofour goals, we feel pleased and whenever we are

prevented from reaching our goals, we may

succumb to frustration and feel irritable, annoyed

and angry.

Typically, the more important the goal, the greater

the frustration and resultant anger or loss of

confidence.

understand what a potential problem

might be. Thus, a person could use that

frustration as a source of motivation to

achieve a goal. In some cases,frustration can have a negative

goal but the outcome does not meet our
