Sociopath Community

My anger has been the biggest issue for me over the years. It's been both destructive and self-destructive in some ways. It's the one thing that has gotten me into the most trouble, and it's something I'm still dealing with at times.

I had a nasty temper when I was younger and sometimes I'd take it out on my daughter. Not physically. I would just get so angry that my temper would frighten her. I've learned to control it more these days. I still get quite angry with her at times, but not as often as I used to.

I also used to get very angry with one of my previous boyfriends and I did take it out on him physically at times. I scratched him, pushed him and punched him on occasion. I attacked him impulsively a few times.

I've been very angry while drunk as well and gotten into fights. On one occasion I grabbed a knife and went out one night because I was determined to kill someone, but in my drunken state I had forgotten he was serving time in prison. Needless to say, I didn't kill him.

Thank you for sharing. 

I see. I've never had anger issues. I guess the "I don't give a fuck" defense kicks in before the anger settles in. 

Weed.

I broke it by writing a diary, both the days I was high, and the days when I had not been smoking for a while.

It became obvious that I felt better when weed was not in my life, so I quit.

I stopped shoplifting when I realized I was old enough that if I got caught I'd just look stupid.

Even though weed isn't addictive people become heavily dependent on it and because it has no hard side effects many think it isn't inhibiting their success. I have only met a handful of people who were able to do what you did and I've seen countless fail. Congrats on your persistence. 

 Thanks. Yeah, well it was not the drug per se I missed. I just always have this huge... need, for anything, in the evenings. Weed was perfect to make that go away. When I shifted from fighting the drug to fighting that feeling, I succeded

I used to shop lift as well, it gets rather tempting after you realize what you can actually get away with. I was a child when this occured and luckily my father straightened that out.

I did it a lot as a teenager. I almost had a relapse a week ago, when I thought something was stupidly overpriced and I could just take it. But I paid for it instead. It was strange.

 Was it a sexual device ? I feel sorry for chicks like you that can't get a man because of how you look. But I guess that's why they make those big rubber dongs. Me and Thrill could make you feel pretty.
