Is it normal i did this horrible thing?

21% Normal

Lately I've noticed an unusual spike in my anger levels. I'm usually a calm person, but now for some reason things have just been upsetting me more than usual. Sometimes i get so angry I just start throwing things, and litterally about 5 people have to get me to calm down. For the past couple of days I've managed to keep calm but yesterday at work on my lunch break a co worker made a racial remark. Something just snapped and I threw my scorching hot macaroni in her face. I didn't mean to, but I was just so mad. Shes in the hospital now with third degree burns and I just feel absolutely horrible. And now Im in danger of losing my job. I just wish i could stop because someone could really get hurt because of me, and I don't want that.

Does anybody else feel like this? If not please help me

Hilarious! You know that, according to your story, someone just DID get hurt because of you, right?

Right. And you're only worried about losing your job after giving someone third degree burns? Uh huh.

  That is what I thought, anywhere I have ever worked that would instant dismissal but the real concern would be the assault charges and the civil lawsuit. If someone deliberately gave me third degree burns on the face, I would certainly sue.

THIRD DEGREE BURNS, dude! You deffenetly DID hurt someone!
If you weren't always that agressive, you might want to think about when it all startet and why.

I advise scheduling an appointment with a psychiatrist or therapist. Maybe try looking online for some calming methods.

Talk to someone.
Admit yourself somewhere.
If you think third degree burns isn't already hurting someone bad, you're wrong.
Get help.

"Unusual spike" I really urge you to see a doctor (not a therapist) to run some tests on you to see what might be causing this extreme amount of anger.

It's not really normal. May be a sign of pent up frustration in your life.

You want to stop because you might end up hurting someone real bad? I guess that lady with the third degree burns was nothing right? You obviously have to stop. The thing is how do you stop. I don't think you can just ignore your anger or make it disappear. Sounds like you have to control your anger. I don't try counting to ten or something like that.

First option I'd consider is anger management. Could really help you learn to control angry outbursts like you've described. There could be medication also that could help but I'd talk to a doctor about that.

Am I the first to realize it would be very difficult to get third degree burns from hot food? Third degree burns usually require something as hot as fire.
I've been burned by hot fire on my hand before and only got second degree burns and it was hotter than any food I've ever had.
If this is real though I'll bet she wont talk shit again.

I'v been having little violent fits here lately, too, but nowhere near as powerful as yours. The other night, I was climbing into my car to go to work and I didn't duck down far enough. I scraped the top of my head on the inside of the door, which fucking hurts. Without thinking, I climbed back out and punched the top of my car until my fist hurt, too.

I've never been like this before, but I think I know why it's happening to me, and the same might be true for you.

Have you kept your emotions bottled up for most of your life? Swallowed pain and sorrow? I have, and if you can't release that energy it can have damaging and detrimental effects to both you and others.

I don't usually get really angry, but there were a couple times in my past that I've thrown things in a fit of rage. However, that doesn't mean its a normal thing to do.

I agree with what Person45 said, and you should probably talk with a counselor about this. They might help you find the root cause of your anger, and show you healthier ways to release your anger without putting yourself, or those around you in danger. Good luck!

My anger has been the same way lately. I cannot stand being so angry all the time. Except, I'm good at controlling it. I never yell or hit anything, I just let it simmer down into a quaint little depression. Fun!

I don't really have any advice for you. I'm sorry. I can only wish the best of luck to you.
