Sometimes i can just kick myself. I lost my temper for things that were said in a very rude way and i just took it out on someone very close to me. How the hell can i be so freaking stupid? How many of you lash out on the one's that really don't deserve that at all? Life gives me such a freaking pain sometimes. I hope karma and her little friends fall out of that little freaking dream world of theirs. This is all her freaking fault. TATA.

I do lose my temper at times but I don't direct my anger at other people. I direct it at the surroundings, which is strange of me. So instead of people, I scold objects, LOL. Well, you have to control your anger a little bit and er, when you are about to scold other people close to you, prevent it from happening by directing your anger to objects instead. I think that'll stop your pain from pushing the blame to other people when they are not the ones doing it.

LOL! Reminds me of the times when I kicked too hard at a chair and in the end, I suffered. LOL! In the end I'm the one being kicked.

I am not very calm person and sometimes do scream on quite innocent persons, or as it happens, on right persons but at wrong time. Not often though.... It feels really bad later, but I don't about karma...

I don't scream sweetie. That is not my style. I just make them understand how angry i am in a very rude way and then it is normally the wrong person i do that too. Karma is still a freaking cow, though. Thanx. TATA.

I normally do not lash out on innocent, people sweetie. This was a typical, wrong place, wrong time. Still unfair, though. Thanx. TATA.

I do understand about what you feel. Well, what has been done is done. But, you sure can improve your future. You may learn some breathing techniques or meditations to help yourself calm down. That's because that kind of emotion will act on impulse (you follow it straight when you feel angry or something like that). So, try to stand still or be silent for a while until you find the way out. Good luck and I hope everything will be better over there.

Hi saphy, If the wrong one gets the blame there is little to fret but when it is otherway round it is difficult. It is difficult always to measure how much one deserves for one's action. This is the situation mainly that determines the course of action. Though not intended sometime the not deserving one becomes victim of your bad humor.

Around the head there is hardly anything worth biting....lol And on your bitting his head off he would perish and you would commit homicide. I can not imagine visiting you in the cell.

This was worse than bad humor, sweetie. If he was close enough, i think i would have bitten his head off or something. Thanx. TATA.

That's a part of life and more a psychological fact. When you are upset and angry, you want to take it out anyhow. If you wont, there are many chances of this having a bad impact on your health- sooner or later depends on what your present age is and how well your health is. I learned it from a doctor who was attending to my late grandfather after he had his first and only heart attack. This happens with almost everyone and personally I feel that the realization that you were wrong in taking it out on a wrong person, actually helps in making the relationship stronger. In my case, it has helped me make a stronger bond with my younger brother. It will take some time and after that you would realize this. Take Care. Sids

Hi. saphrina. Yes. I have gotten angry at an innocent person. It has happened many times before. The best thing that I always will try to do is to apologize to them. Hopefully, they will forgive you. And if they don't then it is there loss. It should not be any hard feelings since you have apologized to them and meant it.

I still need to try and keep this temper in check, sweetie. But i have to agree, if i apologized, sincerely, i might add, and they still have hard feelings about it. Tough luck for them, then. Thanx. TATA.

I have been in a bad mood and taken it out on the wrong person and I too have felt so bad especially when that person is my daughter and she has to take the brunt of my grumpy mood. The best thing to do when that happens is to apologise and explain what really upset you. You’re only human and bound to make mistakes.

Even if i apologize sweetie, i still feel bad about it. He really did not deserve that at all. Hope i can freaking behave myself next time. Thanx. TATA.

It happens to me as well.My wife is the one to get the lashings from me whatever happens at home whether its the kids fault or my parents fault.So I think its a common thing which should be overcome by our own self conscience.

You should work on that, sweetie. You cannot do that to your wife and so can't i do this to my boyfriend. We just have to learn to control ourselves. Thanx. TATA

You have been through a very rough time lately, that's just how I notice it. Anyway we all get to do crazy things when we are really angry and sometimes its unavoidable to lash out or pound all your anger to innocent people specially when they come in a pretty bad time. No matter what you do in the end you are still responsible for your actions because you cannot always say you don't mean it. Whenever you are angry and some innocent person just suddenly became annoying tell him/her to stop in a very calm way and just close your eyes and walk away. I was always the guy to take all the blame whenever my girlfriend gets pretty angry. When she is like that I just shut up and just let her breath for awhile but I wont ever leave her side because I want to let her know that no matter what I'm there for her. When she is a little calm thats when I start talking in the most gentle fashion and comfort her or sometimes I buy her ice cream just to make her smile a bit. Anyway enough of my stories just try to be clear of things whenever your angry and control yourself because as you notice whenever your angry you get to pound on innocent people. I again offer you my box. You can pound every blame on me I will understand and thats the least I could do for being your friend Smile Saph! It's not the end of the world yet

I wonder what i will ever do without you, Hex. If its not your shoulder you offer me to cry on you let me unleash all i have on you. That is unfair towards you. But thanx, for always doing this. I appreciate that a lot. I did apologize though. He is a lot like you, you know. Softhearted and always the calm one. I know its not the end of the world yet, Hex, but it will be if i ever loose him with this anger and temper of mine. Sometimes that scares the crap out of me. Vannie, i cannot forgive myself until i learn how to control this.

For me yes because the wrong is not correct that's why they blame so that they might get you good and you are not wrong.

I know your feeling exactly and my sentiments to you. As my live in boyfriend gets all my rafts and the dear that he is just takes it and it makes me feel worse. The good thing about this is that we recognize it is not the correct thing to do and well we have to try really hard not to continue to do so, as many people get tired of our behavior and we perhaps may lose a dear friend in the process..

I so wanted to blame it on daily stress, sweetie. I don't think i am trainable, though. Too wild as i have heard. But let's give it a go and see what happens.

22 Sep 10
I suppose I could easily blame my misfortunes in life and say that the daily stresses have overwhelmed my inner being. Unfortunately we are responsible for our actions, but hey we are after all human and trainable to adapting and making changes. After all, we do recognize it is a flaw and we can work on it. Good luck to us both and may we be better people. Cheers

Sometimes emotions just overtake us. Well, cool down and do some apologizing if necessary. Mostly I was the one at the receiving end and I would cry out the unfairness of it all but that coming from close ones, I would just forgive them. I hope your someone will do that too. All the best....

Hmm.. Keep your cool, Saphy. Regrets are always found on the last part so chilling sometimes takes a while. LOL. But judging you , saphy. You are waaaaaaaaay better than those people. I get that a lot. Like being blamed that I didn't do. I hate it though sometimes it's hard for me to take off the frustration but in the end, I know I can get a good night sleep because I know I didn't do anything wrong. Let God be their judge. Let's see who gets slap by His lightning. LOL

Don't be too hard on yourself. I have done the very same thing & felt like a dirty dog afterwards. Maybe whoever u lashed out will understand when u apologize to them. I really never blamed anyone else when i did that.

Hi Saphy - it is not the fault of karma. LOL. Frankly, I am inclined to be slow in reactions. :) Take a long time to get really really mad. :) When I am mad, nobody can really undo it - perhaps till I cool down. :) May be - I might view things wrongly in that "mad phase". But to the best of my knowledge and belief, I give everybody a fair chance, and try not to be prejudiced in my view. This is the reason I never carry the guilt of having blamed Peter for Pan's mistakes. :) Of course, others my hold a different opinion.

Good evening dear Saphrina , well to be completely honest , it had been already happenned to me too to descharge myself on someone i care and loove , or simply on a friend whom havent done absolutely nothing to me , simply because there was someone either at work either in the entourage whom said or done resomething that was rude or untruth , and i should of actually deal with these persons whom dont seem to have enough education that i should say what i had to say , so i cann evoid doing something or saying something stupid to persons i care about. Have a great evening dear friend Florin

It just show how strange we are sweetie. We won't take the culprits on, but we will take it out on those we love. Really unfair that we do that. It is dine, the least i could do is apologize, but i still feel like a freaking idiot for doing that in the first place. Nice day. TATA.
