Anger. it’s been a problem that I’ve been dealing with for the past 4 years of my life. My early years of high school definitely fueled this anger lurking deep inside of me. I would constantly show my parents up and get into huge yelling fits. I would get to the point where I could no longer control what I did (consciously? Or maybe what I did was subconsciously? Mmm but I think you know what I mean).

Fast forward 2 years to junior year. I had just turned 17 and the year was about to end. I suddenly realized that this anger problem (yelling, others, etc.) stemmed from me wanting to emotionally hurt people when I was angry. Looking back at the years I realized that every time I got into a fight with my parents + brothers/sisters it always ended up with me stomping (yes literally stomping like those tv shows) back to the basement where the computer was. I would hear the family talking and crying about me and I would feel this sense of accomplishment like I was the best thing ever. 17 was when I decided this would stop that summer I left to work at a summer camp and became great friends with some people there and finally made true friends (this is a thing that I had been longing for for such a long time).

Senior year, In the state I live in Juniors and Seniors are able to go to College and begin taking some college courses or do a full time enrollment (all state paid for ^_^ 20k saved! Yes!). Anyways I became closenit with so many people there and by the time the school year was about to end I made great strides in my life and finally apologized to my parents about my middleschool/early highschool years. Lemme tell you I am the worst kid of the family no literally I told my parents and this is how it went.

Me: I wanted to talk to you today *uneasy pause* I got a girl pregnant! (This is me being stupid … it didn’t go well >_<;
*after some talking about how I better not have done that (my parents are pastors of a church o.O)*
Me: I probably was the worst kid growing up … not even comparable to my siblings.
Parents: Yeah you were
Me: *sigh* *thinks* (DANG! How could you say that!? … well they are truthful … guess I was)

I was only saying that to start off the conversation but I guess I was the worst kid. After that event of telling them all the things I’d done we ended up with a greater relationship that what I previously had. Life was GREAT! I’d just met a sweet beautiful girl also. I thought I was in heaven for awhile. But then low and behold my idol Stork lost in both the OSL and the MSL. Haha I’m just kidding but that was a little depressing. Anyways by the time the school year was done I came back home and with nothing else to do I started playing League of Legends with a friend from school who introduced the game to me. Lemme tell you coming from DOTA I pretty much instantly started pwning everyone. Enough of that. Life was still going great until I found out we were moving houses in preparation for my parents leaving the country to go do some missions work in a different country. The house that I spent 4 years of my life in was gone, my parents were leaving in my first year of true college life (though I attended college I was home almost every weekend and I saw them every Sunday), and most of all I missed every single one of my friends. The friends that I longed for suddenly vanished and I was left alone (figuratively … still had the family, siblings, etc.) the true friends. It was lemme say very depressing.

Then on things started getting worst. It was like I was in heaven then I came back to Earth then I started sinking even lower. My depression spawned anger and just in the past 2 weeks I have returned back to my habit. The habit that I soooo desperately hated… the habit that hurt my parents for 3 years the habit that makes me cry just even thinking about it nowadays (true men are the ones that aren't afraid to cry mwhaha ^^). 2 days ago I had an episode of hate/anger. And guess who I took it out on.

Seriously guess

Nope not my parents

Nope not my brothers

Nope not my sister

Don’t peek guess first mwhaha.

+ Show Spoiler +
The sweet beautiful girl that I had met earlier this year.


I was a jerk to her and found myself hating myself for it last night I laid in bed thinking about what I had done and couldn’t get to sleep for hours and hours and had a nightmare of people just leaving me, more specifically her leaving me. Woke up this morning hoping she would be on fB chat (that’s how we communicate when we aren’t together) anyways she wasn’t not to my surprise though. Being myself I just cleaned myself up and had nothing else to do soo I just played a couple games of LoL. Had the gayest 1 hour game ever >_< hate those freaken Mundo carried their team. Anyways she eventually got and sent me a message (*note* I had been messaging her all night about being sorry … I knew I had hurt her). This is the exact message …

“hmm............................................ thats a lot of thinking........................................................... idk. thats all i gotta say............... for now.................”

“im not sure anymore.. sorry...”

I don’t know about how you would feel but I felt devastated I still feel devastated. I’m pretty sure she’s tired of me saying sorry to her. I know that things will never be the same and that I’ve pretty much ruined whatever could have happened but I want to atleast get my true apology across. I’m gonna be working on it for the next couple weeks and see if I can patch up atleast a bit of the friendship we once had to tell you the truth she was like my best friend. I could tell her anything she could tell me anything.

So TL this is my stupid habit. If you guys have anything/ anyway to help me patch things up with her than please feel free to share ^_^ … also have any of you gone through the habit?How did you guys break it? reminds me of the Linkin Park song Breaking the Habit I just can’t seem to break it.

Anyway, I'd probably start by seeing if she'd be willing to talk to you, and then calmly try to explain to her what your problem was and why things went about the way they did. Also be prepared to get shot down, or have her just be completely not into you anymore.

Well my sister was a lot like you and sometimes still is, so let me speak from the receiving end of all the anger and fighting. It sucks...balls. I spent most of my middle school life trying to keep everyone from fighting and quite frankly I was mad at my sister for causing all this shit to happen(your family and friends might feel a little like me; harsh but true). But hey, she's family. She's gotten better. But when everyone is angry and yelling, it's easy to get angry too, yet I seem to have developed some way to store away anger for a long time or just forget it. Here's how it works.

So you're angry right? The thing to do is stand up, excuse yourself, and walk away. Go into a room (with a computer) and think about what the hell just happened. Then get on the computer and keep thinking about it while playing some games. As it goes by, you slowly seem to forget what you were so mad about. That's the best advice I got. Good luck dude.
Many a sleepless nights were spent doing absolutely nothing.

apologies are cheap, you show her how sorry you are. Don't bother trying to explain the situation in too much depth, as it'll probably just come off as you having a shit tonne of baggage (honestly no one wants to handle someone who gets angry when they're depressed, no offense). I'd say try to plan something to make her feel that you still do care, and that it was just a one time thing. Hopefully you can convince her to go along with whatever you need to have plan to make it up to her. Good luck!
for there to be pro there has to be noob.

Shieldbreak thanks for the advice. I'm pretty sure thats how they feel as of late. Also thats what I try to do but when the girl gets on chat too I just can't seem to get off the page. And I let off my steam instead of letting it out another way.

K took out all the dots

Malgrif I'll try to show her. I don't even like myself when I get angry >_<;; its something thats gotta change. Hopefully I can too. Thanks!

I used to have a pretty bad temper when I was younger. It ended up being something that I really had to sit down and think about for a long time. The fact that you're writing this blog seems to me like you want to change obviously. Actually, it was getting a girlfriend for me that really helped me change the most. I forced myself to pause and think before i said anything, especially when I was angry. Think about what I wanted to say, how I wanted to say it, and after I did that, it helped me calm down a little bit and state my thoughts and opinions more clearly. Find something constructive to channel your frustration too, whenever I got upset, I went and played soccer.

Ah I'm starting to get angry as well for no reason however my sister is the hot head of the house hold and as shieldbreak says ill tell you how we feel from the receiving end. Basically everytime it occurs the only thing you think about is wtf just happened and what has gotten into that person. Was it something else or was it how we treated them before. But we really never know, what makes you angry!??? You gotta open up and start telling why you're angry instead of fuming and spewing your anger explain it for once. Tell the girl you're sorry and tell her why you were mad so she understands circumstances.

From my ecperiences my sister would get angry and leave or just yell and constantly argue about dirty this. Supid that but then she never really made a resolution and talked about what or why she fumed abnormally which would help :p

Oh and to get anger away...don't go on comp cause you just sit there alone and mad :D
troi oi thang map nai!!!

this method has done wonders for me, though it has never worked with a game other than Starcraft (BW works better than sc2 for some reason in this lol, higher level of competition now)

Believe me I know what you're talking about. I went through the same thing as you with having great surrounding and friends all of a sudden to being back in the old situation. This is just something that happens honestly. You make friends, you lose friends, and you find yourself alone at times. You're best bet is to remember that it isn't going to stay how it is and when things get tough then find an outlet and confide in those that are close to you (like your g/f).

The one thing I would recommend to you is to not go and play games when you're feeling yourself getting down and depressed though. Your best bet for relaxing and controlling your temper is imho going to be exercise. It makes a lot of sense when you think about how much energy you seemingly have when you're angry doesn't it?

So next time you feel yourself getting depressed/angry try excusing yourself, going for a run until you're whiped out, and then go do something fun with your g/f. If you feel that things that would work for other people aren't working for you then don't feel ashamed to seek help in anger management. I've known people that have needed it and it really did help them.

Exercising. I'll give it a try. Right now I'm pretty much gonna try anything that might work.
