My family is pretty trashy but I’ve always been more of a type-a trashy kind of person. I can watch my words when I know I have to, and I’m not blaming my family for the way I talk but they’re all that I have and I feel like if I disassociated from them too much I would be so miserable. It causes me so much anxiety when I get angry and feel out of control, because I’m not a hateful person. I hate feeling out of control and it makes me feel horrible. It’s hard to get called names and not curse yourself when you get anxious or upset. Does anyone else curse on accident?
I have the same mild swearing pattern I grew up with … swearing when I drop something. I imagine many people learned their swearing habits as children. Don’t be too hard on yourself.
Sometimes it’s really hard not to swear.
Sometimes there are no other words to express the pain of say shutting your finger in the car door…or smashing your baby toe into the door jam…I have a little one so I have to be extra mindful but I usually just cuss in German if I can’t hold it in…I know its still a cuss word but if my kid picks up the word fick 99% of the people he is around will have no idea he just dropped the f bomb…

I don’t curse around people. but when something annoys me, like my computer charger wire getting stuck, I curse a lot. I don’t know why. one time my brother walked in, while I was cursing. it was funny.

Yeah, that deserves an f-bomb or I guess it would be an f-bombe in German

I’m the opposite. When I’m upset I tend to have no words, or choose my words more carefully.
I swear more when I’m relaxed, just goofing around or trying to be funny.
