Is it normal that i rage when losing/failing?

I get very angry everytime I fail at something or someone beats me at something, it makes me want to scream and punch things.
I’ve had this problem with frustration for a while. When I fail an exam, lose in a videogame or argue with someone I become aggressive.
It’s hard to control it on the moment but it leaves a feeling of regret a few hours later.

    I used to be that way about video games up until I hit 22. You'll eventually grow out of that shit if you make the effort to.

    If you cannot learn how to better control this... you then need to see a good counselor on anger management.

    This behavior will get you fired some day from your job. It may also land you in jail and you could be convicted of an assault (or worse) crime.

    I wish you well with this,

    Its really good to be competitive but dont be a sore loser. It makes you look like a sissy if you cant handle an L. Keep being competitive though it's a trait that will serve you well.

      I am competitive but tend to cut things off when I keep losing or failing at them. Videogames are probably what fuel my anger more. I’ve quit games for losing repetitively like GTA V, Rocket League, Rust, Apex Legends.

    Try not to do that in front of other people.

    You'll grow out of it sooner or later.

    I often feel like that too but it depends. Like when I'm playing a video game with my sister and I don't get to win one game like she always beats me and continuously beats me and I don't get to win at all. That's frustrating and it makes me mad, especially when she laughs and calls me a loser and smugly says "I won again". It makes me want to punch someone. But often I don't care about winning.
