My temper has always been something I have wished I could change. Too often than I care for when I lose my temper I get angry enough to hit something or someone. One of the last times I got that angry, I got into a one-sided fight where I pretty much had to pulled off the other guy. And I almost hit the person who did it. That’s when I started to try and keep it in check. I have been mostly successful in walking away when I feel myself getting that angry. But twice recently I failed to do that. First one was I shoved my step-father because him and my mom had been arguing and he was taking it out on me. I regretted that almost as soon as I did it and I also did something I wasn’t proud of. I don’t want to go into what that was. Second time was a fight with my step-brother. That day was bad for everyone. My step-dad and him had already gotten into a fight earlier in the day because the disrespect he’d shown towards our parents finally came to a head when he brought his motorcycle on the property before he had paid back the money he owed them. Even after I had broken up that fight he still acted like a disrespectful twit. So I just kept getting more and more pissed off. Until I finally punched the fridge (was doing dishes at the time). Of course with that hurting my hand quite a bit (and denting the fridge door) I got more pissed off so I went in the living room and told him off. And then I hit him quite a few times. And that just kicked off a big ol’ brawl. Pretty much ended with him being told to move out. Things have been lessed stressed since he’s moved out. Well except for some lies he has told other about the fight with his dad.
