Temper tantrums
The anger came out
.
Spewed out in fact
.
Temper got the better of you.
.
A violent release using every nasty word phrase and hurt you could think of.
.
Lasted a while too
.
Felt quite drained afterwards.
.
You made up later.
.
Still the violence of your anger shocked you.
.
Where did that come from?
.
In simple language your dark or black side.
.
We have talked about this many times and explained that unless you learn to understand where the origin of the violence is then it will keep on occurring.
.
A fear not dealt with does not go away.
.
And violence is at root fear.
.
What can be done if you cannot or do not tackle this is to observe how you feel about your behaviour some time later after the event and when your anger has subsided.
.
Do you feel righteous?
.
That you were "right"?
.
That your behaviour was justified?
.
If any of these are your reaction then believe me you have some issues to deal with.
.
And if you are not prepared to deal with these then the next best is to understand your options.
.
You can of course allow yourself to become angry every time someone pushes your buttons.
.
Not a good idea as over time you will do damage to yourself and others.
.
Next best is to determine to avoid conflict whenever you can.
.
Decide to walk away from arguments.
.
Listen to the other party and say " you are right", you will be surprised at the reactions!
.
While none of these are very good solutions they do at least move you along from being stuck in violence.
.
Violence that can only get worse over time if the causes are not identified and dealt with.
.
Oh and when we say try telling the other person they are right we mean doing this even when you might still think that you are right.
.
It is to start the process of you learning that being right is not helpful because it allows you to avoid your own issues
.
Avoiding your own issues merely insures that they will keep coming back.
