Frustration is an emotion that occurs in situations where one is blocked from reaching a personal goal. The more important the goal, the greater the frustration. It is comparable to anger.
Sources of frustration may be internal or external. Internal sources of frustration involve personal deficiencies such as a lack of confidence or fear of social situations that prevent one from reaching a goal. Conflict can also be an internal source of frustration when one has competing goals that interfere with one another. External causes of frustration involve conditions outside the person such as a blocked road or a lack of money.
Person's opportunities are defined by the society, in the structure of the society and the society's conditioning of the individual through hierarchy and social status.
Frustration may lead to downfall and deviation, because it wastes precious thinking ability and attention, which otherwise would have been used elsewhere in constructive and/or creative work.[How to reference and link to summary or text] In some cases, it might lead to obsession or addiction.
Frustration should be regarded as a useful indicator of the problems in a person's life, in order to regain balance, and when the individual is observed with open-mindedness and tolerance, his/her emotions may prove to represent problems in the society as a whole.[How to reference and link to summary or text]
In terms of psychology, passive-aggressive behavior is a method of dealing with frustration.
