I’ve been reading a few post on this forum and I’ve never seen anything about anger / rage … Is it normal to be upset or blow up when you think people are trying to hurt you or am I just more angry? My delusions are around gang stalking and Thought broadcasting. I also have horrible intrusive thoughts.
The forum has a search function.
Ok … thanks man
This is my first time using a forum !!
@anon31960475 , are you taking any antipsychotic meds at the moment?
Yeah, I have a hard time getting angry.
Yea … I’m on latuda. I also take other meds…
Welcome to the forum!
I never get angry .
Haven’t been angry since I was a child I think despite people have been horrible to me.
When I was a child n angry might have been someone else in my bod .
I just want nothing to do with them and don’t think they deserve me or access to me.
Hopefully my enemies and haters will have no real access to me.
Can you move to another neighbourhood?
I know a guy who was in a criminal gang and he had to move interstate to get out of the gang and get away from his friends he had that were bad for him.
Difficult to start a new life in same neighbourhood plus you may need to cut some people out of your life if you want to start fresh.
I’ve struggled with anger my whole adult life because of abusive voices. It seems silly that it’s so important to control yourself, it has just gone on too long. And why is there such a thing as reincarnation when it would mean having to learn to control my all over?
I don’t think I struggle with anger. I think I struggle with people doing insane illegal things and then say I’m an angry person. I think people doing illegal things all the time, are angry.
i have a pretty hostile environment at work and in the community so i struggle with anger about that.
maybe this is healthy? to be angry about it i mean.
judy
Yes, I struggle with anger. It comes out in weird ways.
I am angry everyday. My spouse just lets me rant and yell what’s on my mind. By the time I realize he isn’t listening, I’m just frustrated and done.
I get angry internally but never show it. On my current meds rarely.
Thank you guys for the input! It’s really hard to know where the problem is when I feel everyone is against me. It helps to know I’m not the only on … Much appreciated!!!
Ruminating is a problem for me. I hear insulting/threatening voices too, and this doesn’t help. I zoom in on a bad memory and replay what I really should have said, over and over again. Why do the best comebacks always occur to me years later? Sometimes I do this because I have too much time on my hands. It can be good to keep busy.
At one point, I realized I was choosing to feel anger because it was more energizing and powerful than feeling weak with emotions like fear, loneliness, sadness, isolation, or admitting I need someone to talk to. We’re brainwashed into trying to be “strong.” Right now, society praises people who solve problems through violence (as seen in TV and movies).
When I was growing up I had some intense anger that I did not dare express. Anger has always been a problem for me. It comes out in weird ways.
Welcome to the forum! I also take latuda, I find it helps with my mood, keeps me calm.
I can definitely relate!!! Ruminating is a big problem…
I get angry. Just this morning I was shaving and I thought about some online chart at a hospital that had some errors and I yelled F!$# DO YOU F$#::! WANT TO DIE!
