Have you ever done something in anger that you told yourself you would never do?

Well, I learned a long time ago that I should never say NEVER! It seems if you say NEVER you somehow end up doing it sometime in your life. We need to watch what we say and try to live our lives to the best we can. God bless you!

Yeah.. almost everyday I do something out of anger that I hate myself for later. I don't think there's anything I've said I'd NEVER do.. but there are things I want to stop doing, but when I get stressed and angry I do it anyways, especially yelling at the kids. I used to be a total monster towards them, but I started feeling guilty and hating myself for it, so I tried to work on it and told myself I wouldn't get like that anymore. I still slip up sometimes. Today hasn't been a good day.. I didn't become a total monster, but there's been a lot of yelling.. not that anyone listens to it, lol.

Is she by any chance older then you? I think it would be difficult not to start yelling at that point...in fact if I am really pushed watch out!

hiAmbiePam I just the other day did what I told myself I would not do, I yelled at my poor roomie who is either starting down the dismal road of Alzheimer disease or senility as she had forgot so much just in the past two or three months. She now bugs me when I get up in the morning, go to the bathroom to brush my long hair and put on a bit of lipstick after I had already done my first business. she stood outside the doctor and muttered I have to get in there now. I yelled Kathy you always do that to me, just come in and let me finish my hair but no she wants the bathroom to herself.okay modesty by all means but she will parade across the room with her pants down, and this does bother me.For that ten minutes I was so angry I could have slapped her as she pulls that every time I do my hair. I get it that I am too slow to suit her,well she is small and hyper and trots instead of walking and also she falls as she is in too big a hurry. but now she is so stubborn she will balk at everything. Whats funny is she herself will spend twenty minutes in the bathroom with the door closed while I wait and hope I will not wet my pants.

Hi, AmbiePam. Yes. I spit in my husband's face two years ago. He was talking a lot of smack to me, so I spit in his face. He was really pissed off with me then. But I look back after this, and I say, wow, I would never ever have thought about saying something like this to him! I am glad that your sister did not hurt you at all. I had no idea that she would have gotten so mad like this with you.

Hi Ambiepan, I understand how you feel, it is your conscience that makes you feel that way, which is actually good because you get to learn and become wiser ....I had a miserable experience a few years ago when my son was still a child , very naughty and really trying my patience.I never believed in spanking my children or be physically abusive no matter what. There were times when my 3 children would really be driving me up the wall but somehow I never really resorted to spanking or beating them, strong words were enough.But once I really lost my patience with my son and pushed him away , the floor was wet and slippery since I was swabbing it with a soapy solution, and my son slipped and went sliding on the floor missing the heavy cot by inches,If he had hit it anything could have happened.I still get nightmares when I think about that.My son has never realised the implications because he got up after that and was upto his usual pranks...But It was a scary experience for me ...

I did not promise to myself that I will not shout back at my parents when there is arguments at home, i just learned that it is not good in the eyes when you shout back at your parents. I learned about this whenever I am watching drama films about family. However, in true life and in my life, that is not the case. Since my father is so perfect according to him, he will not know if he made a mistake if I will not tell it loudly. I just want my father to know that it is not all the time he is right. He needs to hear his flaws,and whenever he hears it, he will strike back and the never ending argument follows. But it do not happen all the time. As much as I wanted to respect him, he needs to respect me to as I am the one that is helping him to live.

whe you are in anger you cant distinguish what is good and what is bad.. In that state at times i loose control and take out my frustration on my near and dear ones.After damage is over i feel a lot and try to apologize but then, damage is a damage right?? i always think of not commiting the same mistake but i do...!! i curse myself regarding this...!!

i did. i regret doing those things. i have always to remind myself that i need to be angry at times but i must not sin.

I think we have all been guilty of this in our lives. We wouldn't be human if we didn't. I know when this has happened to me, i have felt less worthy for allowing it to happen in the first place. Anger is a very powerful emotion. Sometimes it can get the better of us.

For me yes yesterday I encounter I can't accept that she do in me she don't have respect in me even if I'm younger than her.

Sweetie, i always promised myself, that whenever i get angry, i would never hurt anyone. But, unfortunately it doesn't work that way. I hit a guy out of anger about 2 or 3 weeks ago. It happened so fast, i just could not control my anger. Now, i tend to stay away from people. That keeps me out of trouble. TATA.

Yes i do remember. On night i was working on the computer and my wife was sitting behind me. She started yelling at me and irritating me for some reason. I never gave heed to her talks. Then she started giving bad words at my mom...i was silent. Then after some time she started hitting me on my back with a stick. i was so irritated that i got up turned and slapped her. She didnt say a word but started crying on the terrace the whole night. I felt so bad that i apologied to her and promised her that i would never hit her. Till date i have never raised my voice at her or raised my hand on her.

Yeah, I slapped my ex because of so much anger, after that incident, I vowed to never do that to any girl ever again. The feeling was horrible, I don't know how I will be able to live with myself if it happens again.

I am sorry you guys are having it out. Hope you get it resolved. I have done things I have said I never would, but not all of them bad. I said I was not interested in being a teacher, but I have worked as a Para in classroom for a combined ten years. I have said I would never be a nurse, but I have a few years under my belt doing nurse aid and other nursing home related stuff. I never wanted to be any type of a manager, but I did a year of that.

I actually manage to keep myself quite calm during a fight unless I am being accused of something I know I didn't do, if I am being verbally abused, or if someone really hits below the belt(for example texts my husband and tells him he deserves better then me) then I may get upset and yell! BUT I usually feel bad about it later on. I hate losing control!

All the time Ambie..I am told to remain calm and not give into yelling and getting upset, but when someone knows which buttons to push and keeps pushing and pushing, even I say i won't, 9 times out of 10, I do..I cuss and yell and scream because I feel trapped when I am dealt with that way.. You however are a good person and I would be embarrassed if you ever see me get upset. I am proud that you were able to hold back, good for you..

How sad to have a disagreement with your own blood. Well that happens most often than not sad to say! Siblings do have clashes and that is normal but I think it is not normal to stab a sibling with fork or any sharp thing that could even cause his life. Well anger is something normal for all of us have emotions but we can be angry without committing sin. I mean we can always tell the person the reason for the anger and tell him what mistakes he committed without cussing, without yelling and without hurting him. Otherwise the angry person becomes like a fool who could not hold his peace.

Good on you for sticking to your resolve and not cussing! I don’t have such good self- control I’m afraid...Before I started my antidepressant medication my fuse was always very short and when I was faced with really stressful events such as my husband having a manic bipolar episode to the point that he became obnoxious and delusional, I lost it so badly that I hit him, I punched, kicked and slapped him all while screaming at him because I reached the point of no return; looking in retrospect I cannot believe that was me because anyone who knows me is aware that I am far from a violent person and I believe very strongly that violence has no place in the home and yet, here I was behaving exactly opposite to everything I thought I stood for!

I've done ALOT of things I told myself I would never do. Wear Leggings. Wear Jeggngs. Eat Two Hamburgers. Hang out with my ex. Sleep in instead of being productive. Watched A Beyond Scary Movie that was all gory. Stay out when every 5 minutes i said i'm leaving now waste time on facebook gave idiots a second chance spent wayyy over my self given limit on a shopping trip the list goes on, we're only human so lets not beat ourselves up over it people. We do our best I know we do!
