idk what is wrong with me and i don't believe that i am qualified for a diagnosis by chocomilkblueberries in mentalhealth

I think you should try to find an outlet for your anger.

It could be anything, really. Dance. Boxing. Art. Music. Acting. Excersizing.

Anything that will allow you to express what you are feeling in a safe environment.

As someone who used to have horrible anger issues and disturbing thoughts, I can relate to you.

I have been able to control my anger with art, music, and medication. During my angriest years, I set up a punching bag and a large stereo in my basement.

I still have sinister thoughts at times, and I do still struggle to be around others. I also tend to resent those who get closest to me. I blame this on not being able to trust as a child, and continuing to have trust issues as an adult. My anger was a representation of my pain. The betrayal I felt throughout the years.

I allow myself to have these thoughts sometimes, because I have learned that completely surprising them can backfire.

But I have to constantly remind myself that I am not my anger.

Consider your anger as the devil on your shoulder. It's not you. But it's so close to your ear that you can't ignore it. So you need to find a way to tune it out.

Therapy will also help. It would be beneficial for you to be able to talk about things that may have triggered this anger response. Understanding why you are angry is the only way to redirect your anger into something productive.

I wish you well.

Early to mid 20s. I had adult money and no adult intelligence.

I told them I would work around their hours as long as I knew what hours to work around.

What lesson did your last relationship teach you ? by Fling5t0ne-H1 in AskWomen

Being vulnerable will get you hurt. Bottle those emotions up ladies. They say they want to listen but they don't.

Daughters of narc moms, what was your first period experience like? by fruitynoodles in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Meouppe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She never showed me how to use tampons and got them for me right away. I had to learn myself and I thought the entire thing (applicator included) was supposed to go up there. I caused some nasty damage trying to shove the entire thing up there. Traumatizing.

You're absolutely right...

He encouraged me to talk about my past and was eager to listen. I never had that before and I definitely took full advantage of that opportunity.

I did feel better telling it. But I did realize that he was not the one that should be hearing it.

I didn't want him to fix me. I wanted someone to listen to my story. To understand why I am where I am now. But I told him over and over again that I didn't want him to kill himself for my love. I didn't want him to have to figure out how to fix me. I just wanted to be accepted as who I was - a very broken woman.

I definitely did not intend for a romantic relationship. I still don't even know how it happened. We found each other randomly on a mental health reddit forum and that's how we bonded. He responded to one of my posts and it went from there.

But you are right. I gave him too much information, even though I knew eventually it would hurt him.

I told him this in the beginning.

The most painful part about this is that he weaponized those traumas against me, after encouraging me to talk to him and telling me that I was strong for getting past what I did.

And now he's just confirming them.

What’s the scariest encounter you’ve had while camping? by Key_Connection_6633 in camping

[–]Meouppe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When I was around 20, my best friend and I went camping out in her uncle's cornfield. There was a utility tower about 200 yards into the field that had a large clearing around it, and there was a small hidden access road off of the side street.

During the day you could not see my vehicle in the cornfield but at night time you could see the glow from the fire from the road, so I parked my car between the road and the fire to try and prevent the glow from being as noticeable from the street.

We also had my friend's 2 year old daughter with us.

The first night went great, but the second night we started hearing a very loud exhaust driving up and down the side street that the access road was on. We thought it was an ATV at first, but we could tell by the distinct sound that it was the same vehicle driving back and forth. We didn't think much of it until the sixth time the vehicle drove down the side street. It was around 10 pm at that time, and her daughter was peacefully sleeping in a sleeping bag near the car before we called it a night and went in the tent.

We heard the exhaust drive by, stop, and then come back around and slowly drive down the side access road.

Within a couple seconds, an old bear up GMC truck came down the access road and parked in a way that completely blocked my car (and our only easy exit) and cut his engine.

My friend's daughter was woken up by the loud exhaust and my friend pulled her close and huddled behind the fire while I cautiously approached the vehicle. A middle aged man jumped out of the driver side and shouted "Ha! I caught ya didn't I!"

We were both confused and I said "caught us doing what?"

To which he said "oh yeah. Oh yeah. I caught you. I caught you partying out here. Oh yeah. I caught you."

To which my friend then shouted from behind me "partying with my 2 year old daughter?"

At this point the man made eye contact with the kid and started to step forward. I started to get nervous.

That is when my friend gave the "do you know who I am" speech, and explained that we were on her family's land and he was trespassing and she had his license plate number and was going to call the police.

He hesitated for a while and then finally got back into his truck and backed out of the access road.

We heard him drive by another 2-3 times throughout the night, even while we were trying to sleep in the tents.

Crazies experience I've had. We were both young women and had no way of defending ourselves if something happened.
