Provocative mind

Okay, so I noticed when I was younger, I was picked on alot as a kid. And whenever someone would say something nasty-mean to me, I would tell myself in my mind, "Yeah, go ahead and say more sh*t, you f*cker! I f*cking dare you! See what happens!" So, my question is...
Is it normal to provoke your mind into potentially harming someone once you eventually snap?
