Is it normal to be so irrational?

29% Normal
15 Comments

I get angry over some strange things. I get really offended over stuff I don't have a right to get mad about. Here are some examples:

When I get a bill (I don't feel like I should have to pay for anything)

If I'm a guest and my host doesn't serve things I like

The fact that sports get broadcast on TV

Men who don't fit my idea of what a man should be

I know I'm being irrational but the anger doesn't stop. I get "revenge" on people who I feel offended by, doing various things to be difficult, annoying, mean or stealing stuff as payment.

I'm pretty tolerant and open minded in general, it's just these odd things that really irk me.

    You are easily insulted and have a poorly formed identity. Go search the internet for suggestions that will help you become more emotionally developed.

      Do you even read, bro? My problem is that I get irrationally angry over things I have no business getting angry over. I recognize this yet I cannot help it from happening. I feel entitled to have everything and everyone in my life behave exactly as I want. If things don't go my way, I get some kind of payback. It's wrong. I know. I just can't stop. I'm trying to find out what the fuck is wrong with me.

        Self control is what separates us humans from the animals. It is also something one learns as we grow up. Time to act like an adult, that is, if you are one. I guess you can be excused your little sissy fits if you are a six year old, though.

        That's a first world problem.

    Tolerant and open minded about what? Because you seem high maintenance and bit rude. Not to mention that you are spoiled and need a reality check. You say you can't control it, but are you even trying? This isn't you being irrational about what you want, it's about you feeling entitled to be a jerk. Why is that? Don't worry about how rational or irrational it is.

    Why you think you deserve any amount of accommodations from people? What makes you better or more deserving?

      Yes, I've tried. It's very hard because this is how I'm used to being. It's an automatic response and I can't always catch myself before it's too late. Actually I can hardly ever do that. Then the times when I have let go and not acted how I'd normally act I get a ton of anxiety and sometimes regret. It's not like it's easy. I didn't even realize how bad I was until fairly recently.

      I don't know why I feel like I am more deserving. I really don't. Getting away with acting like I do for so long probably reinforced the idea but how it started, I do not know.

    i find it interesting... looks like you deal with a lot of stress if such things are constantly on your mind ("if" they are).

      Something has to trigger me, it doesn't happen out of the blue. The intense anger passes relatively quickly but gets replaced by a grudge or plans for revenge. That stuff comes natural to me so it doesn't interfere much. I probably am causing myself more stress than I realize, though. It's just so normal for me so I have no idea.
