Phil,
I would think your "vicious" behavior was a mixture of fear and anger. Plus a surprisingly overt display of anger, for you. Any time one of us "easy going" mellow addicts lets anger come out, I think it just spews because we don't let it out in 'normal' amounts as it comes up.This was an extreme situation, and you acted out some of your anger this time. Here's where I go into denial (tho this is what I believe): I truly believe it's not anything as serious as you losing control, I don't believe that you would hurt someone, and I do believe that if you've stopped with the emails, you are ok til you see your pdoc and therapist.
I hope you talk about this in therapy. This is an excellent thing to talk about.
