Oooohhh, I've lost it and let it all come out all right. Right here on the board on occasion. Not a pretty picture. (nose wrinkle) I'm currently working on controlled release under safe conditions at my therapist's office - and on trying to learn not to let it build up to begin with. Not easy.

My father. He is currently confined to a wheelchair. His bitterness over that has exacerbated his natural tendencies to take out his frustrations (verbally, not physically) on his family. I was the lucky one, I guess. I had appointed myself the one who would creep out when the worst was over and cajole and tease him to a better mood. So while he might yell at me, it's nowhere near what he does to my mother or (now adult) brother. When he gets particularly vicious, and I am in a particularly vulnerable mood, his attacks floor me and make me temporarily unable to remember to set limits. "If you continue to talk that way, I'm going to have to hang up/leave."

Gotta work on it.
