Yesterday I was at Walmart and was walking through the sporting goods department. I needed to buy a bat because me and some friends were going to the batting cages later. I was walking by the flat screens and noticed that the same TV I just bought at Best Buy was on sale at Walmart for $1000 less. So I did what any rational person would do and proceeded to smash all 29 sets with the bat to ensure no one got a better deal than me.

What temper?[/quote]

Pics?

hahaha and then epic fail for the 3rd attempt of AMOG’ing when the smaller guy stares him down and he realizes I’m not that same joe like everyone else in that gym. enter the real world.
:wink:

Actually though, great thread…I know some of the non-angry guys here will think it’s a joke…but it definately is serious and can affect your whole life. And if people were to witness the reality of it in real life, it’s not so funny. Not a good idea to push some people in the wrong direction.

I have one. It sucks, hard. Today I got mad and smashed a wall with a baseball bat, and then threw the bat through a window. Probably $1500 down the pisser right there. A year ago I got mad and punched the monitor of my brand new laptop, and totalled the whole computer. I don’t do this shit very often, it only happens like once or twice a year, but when it does happen, it’s disgraceful. My gf gets scared, my dog gets scared… it’s ugly. I don’t know what causes it or how to stop.

Some extremely fucking aggrovating thought enters my head and I just lose it and start breaking shit. I’ve been doing this crap all my life, ever since I was a kid, I had to take anger management classes in the 7th grade and it didn’t help any. I’m 26 now and it’s disgraceful to carry these childhood habits to this age. I don’t wanna be a fucking kid anymore.

What should I do? Anyone else have this problem? I don’t really believe in anger management counseling; if it was helpful, I would go, but based on my previous experiences, it isn’t helpful. Any ideas?[/quote]

Dude, I really think you should see a psychiatrist and/or psychologist. You MIGHT have a mood disorder. I can relate because I have a FIERCE temper and it has only been through my strong sense of morality and discipline that I’ve been able to contain it enough that I haven’t harmed people, damaged property, been fired from work, and/or have gone to prison. And when I say this, I’m serious - VERY serious! I’ve had seething rage much more frequently and it occurs less often now.

It used to get so bad that I scared others… and MYSELF! There have actually been times that I thought I’d definitely lose it one day and wind up excommunicated from family and wind up in serious trouble. Co-workers, relatives, and friends couldn’t understand it. I’d be in an neutral or good mood one minute, and then all of the sudden, my mood would switch… LIKE THAT - INSTANTLY! And I’m not talking about being “pissed”. I’m talking about seeing red; about feeling your blood pressure rise; about feeling a muscular rigidity over your whole body; about feeling like you can’t breathe unless you get SOME KIND–ANY KIND–of revenge.

Thank goodness I have morals and discipline and sought help for this.

You practice self control which is wise. People don’t bother me enough to evoke violent outbursts, but there are times when I pick up some inanimate object and want to slam it on the ground, or punch it, and then I think to myself, “wait…get ahold of yourself you asshole”. Once however, I did punch a computer monitor and broke it. Had to lie to the IT guy at work about it to keep from getting fired.

I do practice self control. However, I STILL actually believe that violence–although I can’t practice it–is THE MOST effective way for dealing with inappropriate or disrespectful behavior in others.

I’m FAR from sexist–I love and respect women; there are loads of great ones out there–but I do believe the reason why many of them act ridiculous both in social and professional life is that they’re a class that most sane people avoid “dealing with” physically. That is, they instinctively know that almost nobody is going to hit them in retaliation for shitty behavior.

I believe with men it’s a different story. There’s an internal compass telling us how to behave, and that if we misbehave, fists are being thrown.

I really don’t know where I’m going with this. I guess all I’m trying to say is what I said in the first paragraph - violence is a very effective disciplinary and educational tool. But unfortunately, I can’t practice it. I value my life too much; I don’t be thrown in jail or prison for practicing it. Where I got a violent temper and an internally violent streak is beyond me. Therapy and medication have helped TREMENDOUSLY!
I suggest the OP to at least CONSIDER these options if anger is impeding on the quality of his life. It was for me, and I couldn’t afford and didn’t want to throw romantic, family, and social relationships and my quality of life down the tubes.

Man, when I was younger I’d get so mad I’d scare the shit out of people. I’d clench my jaw so hard veins would run through it and my teeth felt like they were gonna shatter. Sometimes I’d cry, and no matter what someone was getting hit or choked. I’d get in A LOT of fights and was always in trouble. By the 8th grade they started pumping me full of drugs to calm me down, but all that did was make me super anti-social and unlikable.

Before I was “crazy”, but at least I was well liked. When I was 15 or 16 I was drinking at a party and got in a fight with the wrong guy. 5 or 6 of his buddies blind sided me, beat my ass and threw me face first into a fire hydrant. I’ve got a mouth full of fake teeth as a reminder. I’ve got a lot more graphic, violent stories to further illustrate my wackiness.

As I’ve gotten older [I’m 28 now] I’ve learned to step outside of myself before I lose it and try to think logically about the situation. I’ve generally been successful in avoiding going apeshit, although sometimes it’s harder than others. I really don’t like being disrespected, and I really don’t like people challenging me. Maybe it’s my insecurities exposing themselves, not sure, but I damn near lose my mind.

Also, I’ve been dating the same girl for well over a year now, and sometimes when we fight I allow her to get me so worked up I’m ready to break everything in our house. Guess that’s love right? Anyway, all of that was to say that I realized that that anger did and has done nothing good. If I’m getting to the point were I don’t think I’ll be able to “step outside of myself” and view the situation logically, then I leave the situation. If you’re about to smash several hundred dollars worth of shit ask yourself why, and if it’s gonna make you feel better when you “come to”. I’ll leave you with this- “Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured”- Mark Twain.

lol well whiteflash I gotta say if you don’t like being disrespected or challenged…you should read my thread in the get a life forum of the guy who disrespected me at the gym haha. I’m sure you would have definately been a lot more rattled than I was. It’s good you are gettin more control of your anger now though.

One question though…I’m not fully understand the quote you posted…I read it over and came to the conclusion that…anger is more dangerious if nothing is done about it (stored inside, compressed, not letting it realse etc.). And if you let that anger out (which it is poured) it’s actually safer?

Sorry I feel like I’m back in highschool with that quote haha I sucked at english in HS, reading short stories and answering the questions…grrr. finding the meanings behind sentences.

What he meant is that anger is a “poisenous” emotion and being angry does more harm to the person internally [stress, anxiety, negative thought,etc…] than to whatever he takes it out on. I’ll check your thread out bro. Be good.

1m 17, and I have my moments of rage. Things have been tuff for me recentley, seeing my friends going off to college, my parents getting a divorce, girls and life in general.

I try and control myself as much as possible. I almost never get into fights, but I do take my rage out on random things. I broke my knuckle from punching a wall, spent 2 months in a cast and $1200 on surgery. One thing ive noticed is I take some of my anger out on my mom (never hit her, not even close, just yell at her and stuff). Thinking about that usually pisses me off even more.

A few things help me control my anger:

  1. Whenever I get pissed/annoyed I try and remind myself that someone else has it worse.

  2. Talking to friends or “venting”. Sounds kinda corny, but if youve got some close friends, im sure theyll listen.

  3. Goin to the gym. This is the main thing that keeps me from freaking out. It occupies my time, and keeps me from thinking.

I think everyone has their own little thing that pisses them off, and something that helps them suppress it. If lifting doesnt do it, find something else that just keeps your mind off things.

I’ve had my share of rage…

But c’mon, don’t u think temper tantrums are a little fucking old by now?
What you do think, if a woman acted this way? WOuld that be fucking cute? If she screamed, and threw things in your fucking house like an idiot…ya, now turn the mirror on yourself. You wouldn’t sympathize with her ‘inability’ to stop being a dumb bitch…this is you.

Some 800 natural test olympic lifters don’t wind up in the news every week for ripping a stop sign out of the ground…so how the fuck can you justify going 'CrAzY!" when you’re just some typical upper average male specimen.

Learn self control, there’s nothing cool or cute about flipping out.
This takes us back to that prozac thread or whatever, ppl gotta learn to control your minds already.

OP is this you?

I had a boy for a long time, that would always get in these dumbass temper tantrums.
He was a big dude, got angry alot and was a better all around fighter than me.

ANyways he dissed my gf and I told him if he ever did it again, I’d be on him like flies on shit.
Well he did it again, a week later or so when we argued. This was a zenith of a lotta shit he’d pulled that I’d called him on, but he’d always get like, “DOG U WANNA FIGHT ME!?!?” When I’d just be talking to him about logical respect.

Long story short, I told him he was a pussy, sucked at fighting, etcetera, he went nuts, and started swinging.
I ducked and just tased his ass, and then beat the fuck out of him, with a wooden sword till his face was bloody as fuck and he had big welts all over him.

Maybe I’m a pussy to some of you. But humanity has not survived for a million years by being like, “I AM AN ANGRY SPOILED ADULT CHILD!!! WANNA FIGHT ME MAMMOTH!!!” THose motherfuckers were the first to die. The fuckers who survived and fooled the beasts, were the dudes who could focus their energy and emotion into rational actions. SELF CONTROL

Do you think bashing your shit is cute? Do you think your rage makes ppl afraid of you? Respect you? Think you are powerful? Do you realize some 120 lb pussy will just feel your psycho vibe, and put a bullet in your fucking skull? How hard will you be then? If you’re really blind retarded rage when you get angry, you are destined for death in almost any violent encounter.

You only act this way cuz noone has fucked you up retarded because of it. If your ass lived in the country I’m from or a shitty US ghetto, you’d be dead or learned by now with the shit you pull. You’re behavior is not that of a modern caveman, but of a spoiled upper class white child whose parents placate him too much.

Get over yourself man. You’re not tough, you’re just a fucking brat.

yeah I have an anger problem. every time i read Rohnyn’s posts i want to strangle the first person i see.

Some very pissed off people here.

As many of you could very well have legitimate chemical imbalances and/or psychological disorders, I don’t want to pass judgement, just as a happy person should never tell a depressed person to “cheer up”.

What are these pangs of rage like? I could never imagine wanting to smash a wall down or beat someone with a baseball bat. When you fall into a tantrum, do you act without fear of repercussion? Say Mike Tyson approached you when you were freaking out and said “if you smash this wall, I am going to beat you within an inch of your life”. Would you be able to control yourself, or would you act the same way?

Serious question, I’m not trying to be antagonistic here.

Wait, wait, wait-- back up. Why did this kid try to shove a phone up his ass in that video?

I’ve seen some pretty pissed off people before, but no one ever tried to shove something up the ol’ poop shoot during a rage.

There are some deeper issues with this kid.

Carry on.

Ya think?

The kid is obviously struggling with the realization that he wants a cock up his ass.

Anger issues are really not all that uncommon. Many times its just part of transitioning from being a little boy to being a man. When a little baby doesn’t get its way it throws a tantrum. What Most people in this thread are describing is the exact same thing, but now the baby is 180 lbs, and has the ability to make holes in sheetrock.

Eventually you get older, assuming a real life tough guy hasn’t smashed your skull, and you learn to have more patience, or how to laugh at things, or just how to count to ten.

You also may have a wife, kids, a mortgage, a career, and getting arrested, buying new monitors, phones, laptops, cameras, doors, sheetrock, and windows for no good reason just isn’t acceptable anymore.
