I agree with Chucky. Please get help for yourself before you harm someone and then, pay the consequences for mismanaging your anger and ill actions.
This forum is geared to help you manage anger. Anger does not equal aggression and violence.
What will motivate you to change your vengeful feelings and hostile attitude towards others? Do you want to change your behavior?
What would motivate me to change my vengeful feelings and hostile attitude toward others? Maybe if someone, for a change would listen. I'm tired of people telling I'm wrong all the time and I am tired of people assuming I have to behave. I could unloose a can of whoop-butt that would make these people think twice!
No one seems to understand. I try to tell people the truth, I try to tell them what it's been like for me and they don't want to hear it. I'm not saying I've had the worst life in the world, I know that isn;t true. But for once i want people to stop making excuses and to tell me to "get over it".
If I am supposed to "get over it", maybe THEY can get over it when some day, after some idiot has talked down to me or some moron tried to jump me I take a baseball bat and SMASH it into their head. Then THEY can get over it!
My own mother told me once that being me isn't good enough. She asked me if it was "working for me" (Dr. Phil, you know). She asked me if "being myself" was "working for me". Well, you know what, I see I was wrong now and she was right. I was wrong to think that people would care. If my own mother finds fault with me, then who can possibly not?
So, now you're going to get what you asked for. They want me to be the "bad guy", allthough I'm NOT the one that has piped, punched, choked or thrown knives at THEM.
As for "changing my behavior", oh yeah, I get it, I'm the bad one, right? You know I have heard that for a looooong time. When they used to verbally abuse me in school and beat me it was MY fault. It was MY fault for defending myself. It was always my fault, because THEY made the rules and then blamed me for defending myself. It was MY fault, because it must be the "retards" fault (that's what I got called for 12 years because I was in Special Ed).
What would motivate me? I want things to change! I want people to stop minimizing what this has done to me! I am tired of being told that was "long ago" and I should "get over it". If I got to get over it, then don't complain to me when they get a taste of their own medicine! YOU GET OVER IT THEN!
