-'''Stoic Passions''' refers to various forms of emotional suffering in [[Stoicism]], a school of Hellenistic philosophy. 
-==Primary Passions==+In [[psychiatry]], '''rage''' is a [[mental state]] that is one extreme of the intensity spectrum of [[anger]]. When a person experiences rage it usually lasts until a threat is removed or the person under rage is incapacitated. The other end of the spectrum is [[annoyance]] (DiGiuseppe & Tafrate, 2006). Psycho-pathological problems such as depression increase the chances of experiencing feelings of rage (Painuly et al., 2005).
