Does anyone else fear getting so angry that you lose control? I fear this terribly. I’ve been having anger but I knows it’s just because I’m so tired of OCD and dealing with having it. But I fear I’m going to snap and I don’t want to. Please tell me I’m not alone in this. I have a very short patience span, I’m always tensed up and the tiniest thing can make me so angry. I just don’t understand this.
You are SO not alone on this. I can go off in a matter of seconds… red assed pissed off… at everything!!!! Then it just stays with me . I usually don’t calm down unless I can get some sleep. I get so angry that I feel like my heart is going to pop right out of my body. I try to calm down but sometimes it just takes over. I usually have to go be by myself when this happens. I don’t want to do or say anything to hurt anyone else. Working on it but it is hard.
So true. I'm so impatient with my kids. I get easily over stimulated with nose because of all the thoughts in my head.
Yeah, I fear that a lot. My patience is also thin when it comes to people, and I fear doing something irreversible. However, I'm aware that even when we're upset, there's moments of clarity where we go "I have a choice." but i really get what you're saying :)
It’s so terrifying, I get so angry and almost get the urge to act on the anger, then it’s like I have a battle in my brain with “if I act out and punch someone, I’m going to jail” I then play the scenario in my head off being in jail, and I can’t do that, I won’t be able to live in jail and it keeps me from acting. I am scared that “voice of reason” is going to shut off one day and not be there, and then I’ll do something. It’s truly unnerving, I just wish there was a cure for all of us. I don’t want to hurt anyone or anything, I just don’t understand why I have this, and why I can’t get rid of it. I want my fking life back, I am sick of living in the prison of my own thoughts. This has to be some sort of karma for me, I had to have done something to deserve this. I don’t know. I just want peace of mind. :(
No!!! You did NOT deserve this. None of us did. You never did anything wrong. We just have to be stronger than other people. We have more hurdles, but that makes us that much stronger in the long run. Stay tough.
I have seriously affected my relationships because I am so easily angry. It is exhausting for the people around me, and I want to stop, but it is hard when I feel so constantly running on empty.
I'm very nervous to post this because I feel like a bad person right now but does anybody else with harm OCD get scared that's if they get annoyed or angry with someone the thoughts will become more real? I hate the noise of people eating, for example, and I know it's something people can't help but I hate the noise and then I get more intrusive thoughts and have to leave the room or put earphones in or sometimes I just cry and can't tell People why because I can't be like you eat too loud so I might hurt you! I'm scared if someone really annoys me or hurts me more seriously that I won't have control. It's really stressing me out. Sorry for the rant.
I think I just did today. I literally could not stop screaming and jumping around crying punching the wall for like 30mins-1hr. I’ve had quite bad panic attacks, but this one was just me feeling absolutely defeated. Can anyone relate? I feel crazy (well maybe I am, I have OCD)
My OCD makes me angry at the world. I have been so angry/irritable lately and I can’t seem to control it. Does anyone else struggle with anger and rage due to their OCD?
