We all lose our temper sometimes, when did you last lose yours?

Around a week ago,a manager sent a really shitty email. I flipped, mouthed off to my cats and had to walk away from my computer. Replied hours later in a pleasant but formal tone.
Try to keep your poor cats out of it.
Oh don’t worry they agreed. I could tell by their purring
A month ago, when my dad mocked my movements and voice while I was speaking to him. It was weird. And it wasn’t until later when confronted that he denied it ever happened and told me that I am seeing things.
A tantrum and a couple hours later he admitted he did do all of it. I even started to doubt myself. Gah
Gaslighting can be horribly confusing, especially when it’s from someone important like our dad. It was a really shitty thing for him to do
Thank you 🩷 Yes, it was so confusing. It helped that I could share it with my mum and she could relate to the it so much. I don’t think my dad does it on purpose— this mocking, it’s just … part of him? I guess. Can’t wait to move out ^^
Your mum relating definitely helps. Sadly it not being on purpose doesn’t mean it’s not hurtful. How long till you can move out?
It’s been a while, this year I’ve been in more of a state of general dismay and it’s hard to get angry from that position.
I get that. Dismay is kinda down, flat and can be hopeless. It doesn’t lend itself to anger
Practically any time I use a computer product for more than an hour.
If it’s web-based it’s closer to 10 minutes.
Last time we experienced abuse, which is most days here.
I never have flipped anything over.
