Have you ever just lost it?

[Doclector]

Generally I'm fine but I remember one day I had been awake all night as it was my birthday and friends stayed over, my brother who I normally get on with was having a good laugh annoying me in front my friends in the morning, by proding me in the head while I was spread out on the couch. He's older than me so hitting him with my fists wouldnt really cut it so I went for the closest metal object... which was a fire poker :|

Thankfuly nothing happened as he said in a really calm voice "Do you really want to do that?" and I realised I didnt, he said sorry for being a dick and it all calmed down then. We laugh about it now but I'm still haunted by what could have happened in a split second of blinding rage...

I know that feeling. I was bullied for years, then one day they all decided to attack at once, all six of the main prosecutors. I snapped. A few minutes later, I had beat up five of them pretty bad, one ran, and I was strangling one of them by the end. I let go thankfully, despite how little any of them deserved life. It wasn't truly blacked out, but it was in a huge red mist, a flurry of hitting, grabbing, biting. From that point on, the point at which I almost became a murderer, I've always stood guard against that dark part of myself, whilst knowing it may one day even be necessary to use it.

Whenever I'm around my sister.

She's such a fucking ***** even my mother hates her.

I hate 10 year olds.

i cant think of any of my own right now, but this woman i know did the greatest thing.

First, she was convicted for murder. She killed her husband when she walked in on him molesting their daughter.

Couple years after getting out, she's walking to work and sees a man hitting his dog, so she pulls a gun on him and tells him to give her the dog and walks away calmly. She still has that dog...

I figured out early on that I get violent when I lose my temper, so I do my best to make sure I don't lose it. However, there are things that set me off.

One is dead-baby/necrophilia jokes. I assaulted a friend because he started a second joke after I told him to shut up after making the first joke.

The second should be kind of obvious: people hurting those I care about. My ex-gf had been assaulted and was in hospital in a state. That angered me, naturally, and it must've showed because they told me not to do anything stupid. After raising my voice for the first time in probably eight years, they called security 'for my own safety'. Needless to say, I finally lost my temper and ended up fighting the two guards that turned up. It took my gf risking herself to restrain me and effectively screaming the roof down for me to stop. She was in a state before, I was in a state after, because I accidentally elbowed her in the face and opened her sutures.

Never have I gone from angry to depressed so quickly.

Sure there're others, but...

I was at the gun range a couple weeks ago. I was off the firing line, reloading a couple magazines before i went back to shoot.

Couple booths down, this kid and his dad showed up to shoot. The dad was loading a rifle, while the kid "played" with a Glock. His dad told him to put it down. He said "its ok, i know its unloaded" and then pulled the trigger, with the gun aimed down the line at me. Round in the chamber, bang, 9mm bullet racing down range at me. Struck a post about 2 feet from me.

Once i was actually able to get up, i ran over there and SCREAMED my head off at this kid, and his father for being so absolutely careless, for being so stupid and so on. His only words to me were "chill out *****, it was an accident".

By that point, the Range Officer had come over and was yelling at both of them, and then proceeded to ban them both for life from the range.

i think its the only time, i was so angry i couldnt actually see straight.

wow....some people shouldnt handle guns

and the "chill out *****" line...was that the kid or the dad? eather way THAT would have been enough to send me over the edge, disrespectful dick

hmmm Im more of a doormat

I did fele myself getting physically mad (face going read) at a freind once...yeah I could never understand her

 

[empa]

I do occasionaly do that.

I try to keep it at a minimum, was allot more normal when i was younger though. (13-16) ( Now 19)

I guess i matured over time as most do.

 

[Scarim Coral]

I pretty much keep it contain all the time but there has been one or two time it nearly burst out. I won't go into details but all I can say is that I really hate it when my family question my social life to the point that I had almost loose it when they say I'm "boring".

 

[platinawolf]

Oh yes ^^* I've been so mad all sense just evaporated... Hasn't happened in maany years but yes. I've gone berserk. Thankfully no one was (seriously) hurt.

it was the kid who said that. Total disrespect and utter stupidity, not to mention the fact that he just brushed off the fact that he literally almost killed me

 

[Treaos Serrare]

i have yet to lose my shit to any significant degree, i think if i did ever just snap id be on the news as the suspect of a murder spree

 

[similar.squirrel]

I don't really get angry,because the idea of losing control terrifies me on a very deep level. That said, I used to cut myself up pretty bad when I couldn't handle life. But I was in control at that point, hence being alive and so forth. Fricking emo mentality..

I dont blame you, that's the most irresponsible thing I've honestly ever heard of. I would have beat the kid and dad senseless with the gun if I almost got shot.

OT: I have had outbursts but I've never really gone into a major rage fit. Although it's probably anyday now it'll happen with the stress im under.

Hitokiri- Thats insane, I would have unloaded all my ammo into their livers and claimed self defence. And then end up in jail because that probably wouldnt hold up in court... good thing I dont own any guns then.

Ziadaine- If you read this, I dont suppose you could PM me a link to a bigger image of your Vinyl Scratch display pic...

OT - 100% of my stress is university related, and I unleash that randomly throughout the day through Blackadder-esque remarks whenever someone pushes me about something trivial. Sometimes I'd like to be able to go crazy and hulk-smash things though, but until i figgure out how to rage-buff myself like the hulk or every DBZ character, that'll have to wait.

Although when I was younger a kid through a battery drill at me, the drill bit gouged a pretty deep hole right next to my eye, I heal pretty fast so it didnt scar, but he could have taken my damn eye out, and Im quite fond of my eyes. I beat him for what seemed like ages until his parents showed up.

 

[Kargathia]

It depends what you classify as "losing it". Generally I'm so evenly tempered that getting me annoyed is considered an achievement.

I came close once, but with a bit of effort I still walked away - something I'm pretty happy about in hindsight.

However, I do occasionally get moments of uncommon clarity at points where either I convince some friend, or something "really bad" happens - whatever that may be.
Afterwards I'm always surprised at my sudden display of eloquence, and remain unable to duplicate it without proper incentives.

 

[MetalDooley]

Rarely.It takes an awful lot to make me lose my temper but it does happen occasionally

Like when I was 14 and moved to a new school.One of the dickheads in my class though it would be fun to pick on the new kid.Anyway I put up with his bullshit for a couple of weeks until one day in history class.I was minding my own business when he flicked an ink cartridge from a fountain pen at me which splattered ink all over me and my books.It was the straw that broke the camels back so I ran over and proceeded to beat the shit out of him in the middle of class until the teacher broke it up

I ended up being suspended for a week and they only reason my punishment wasn't worse is that the history teacher(who was a pretty nice bloke)backed me up and said the other guy had provoked me into it.The other guy never messed with me again though and we actually ended up becoming friends later on

 

[retyopy]

When I was 6, I nearly choked my sister to death.

I'm a lot more mellow now. Like, a LOT more mellow.

 

[Thomiroth]

Whilst I'm VERY good at holding my temper, there has been at least one occasion in the last year or so where I completely lost it. First time in about a decade, and I was not proud of it. Granted, everyone I explained the situation to said it was warranted, and I do believe I was in the right on it, but I certainly don't like exploding like that. It involves a severe loss of self control, which I don't like losing.

 

[Captain_Fantastic]

regularly im a serene guy the best example of this is when my stepmother got pissed at me smashed a plate yelled a few lines and left i just slowly finished eating walked outside and took a nap though i was worse in my childhood

but there are holes in the wall that are examples of the few times i have "lost controll"
the worst ive had is a direct fight with my father because of a promise he broke it wasnt really his fault it he was called into work but it was a day we were planning for months and it didnt help that my stepmother was "lecturing" about how i shouldnt be skipping school for something so stupid the next room over

and other than that there is one person that makes me get close to that state whenever i see him and he can be described as the antisocial emo kid who makes up problems in his head and cheated on his girlfriend while she was recovering in the hospital by getting her best friends drunk and then lying to her saying it was them that did it somehow. effectively destroying that entire group of friends through that and many other actions. oh and he also threatened the cops on me for trying to be friendly to his now ex and stalked my closest female friend spurting insults and posting her phone number all over the internet conveniently on the weekend i was out of town

 

[smithy_2045]

In a violent fit of rage? Not since I pretty much quit gaming.

Feeling completely and hopelessly lost though, every second week.
