EPTsometimes i get disappointed, like when i lose to stupid things (but happy that i know they are stupid and can fix them easily), but it's hard to get over losing a long macro game, until at least the next day
but i don't really rage

I'm sure everyone gets angry from time to time at ladder, personally the most I have done is swear out loud when I'm home alone or perhaps a medium strength desk slam with my fist no where near enough to cause damage. Imagine if you beat someone and they broke their desk, I would find it hilarious. Think about how lucky you have it having even electricity, clean drinking water, food and a safe place to shelter compared to many out there or really how unlucky some people get either dieing in a car accident or getting diagnosed with a terminal illness when they are you. When you realise just how good you have it you won't let small things like this get to you. The sad thing is most people don't reflect on how fortunate they are. IMO we should make time every day to be thankful for what we do have because often it's only in bad times we realise how much we take things for granted. P.s I'm not even religious... Do you understand that if you're able to think clearly like that you probably are not raging and already understand how fortunate you are? I think your solution (thinking about how fortunate we all are) is a long term solution that would probably take a couple weeks, months, or years to work on. The OP clearly wasn't in any control of his mental state at the time of this. Just my 2 cents. Also, everyone loses it. Just because some people are more fortunate than others doesn't mean that they aren't allowed any times of rage. I do agree with your post though. I think the difference between the OP's rage and the rage of the poor is that the OP doesn't experience it as often so naturally he goes ballistic, while the less privileged suppress it? IDK, I'm just talking out of my ass. PEACE. | ||

IDK, I'm just talking out of my ass. PEACE. Agree, as I said I rage to a small degree I'm sure almost everyone does. Thinking of the big picture is a long term strategy, in the moment I let it put if I feel I need too but never in a destructive way like the OP. In the moment you just gotta hope you got enough self restraint I suppose, but how you deal with the ups and downs of life in general will affect your ability to restrain yourself in the heat of the moment. Sometimes you just gotta step back, if you could never play another game of SC2 would the world end? | ||

Following this, I run a few miles to make up for the angry fat I have gained, but then I become angry at how tired I have become. Following this, I take a long nap to calm my anger of being tired. When i wake up, I become angry that I have not been laddering through all the eating, running, and sleeping. Following this, I become less angry becuase of my bonus pool. Then i start raging becuase my first ladder game i play smwatkins AND HE 6 POOLS ME. IT'S A MALICIOUS CYCLE. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. I have no idea why this was so funny, but it was. I've spent most of my life competing in sports or games, and was only mad enough to punch the wall once. I'm a pretty angry person in general, but I've never did anything like throw something or break something. I'd suggest taking up boxing. It probably relieves most of my stress, whether I'm aware of it or not. Just training and hitting the bag, not necessarily fighting, makes me feel much more at ease with life. | ||
