Be Honest How Bad Can Your Temper Get?

My biggest defence is words and mouth and not as in shouting. If I feel myself elevating to the level of temper I will retreat to headphones and music to calm down rather than buy into it and confront within a relationship. Outside of that I will meet what is thrown at me.

I have a very bad temper but I hide it well. Unfortunately I fear what may happen if I ever lose control, however I also fear what might happen if I don't lose control. Either way someone is likely to get hurt.

@istillhaveanameitsrick that kind of makes you a ticking time bomb doesn’t it?

@Primnproper Probably, on a good note, I am much more likely to hold it in until I hurt myself rather than someone else.

@istillhaveanameitsrick well please don’t do that, maybe try and find some coping mechanisms.. I use music, walking, nature. Just take yourself away from the situation.

@Primnproper I use music but it only works for a little while

@istillhaveanameitsrick then talk… communication can be key..

@Primnproper I drive a truck and spend most of my week alone, if I start talking to myself people might look at me funny
