Blowing Up At Random Times

Soooooo not unusual.

This is a quote from the original article

Many people with PTSD struggle to understand why they fly off the handle at such little things, i.e., the toilet roll is around the wrong way, someone walked in front of you, that stranger looked at you, etc etc. The reason is actually quite simple, and easier to show than often explain, why those with PTSD tend to get angry quicker, more easily, and faster than others at little stupid things.

The updated one is linked below. Most f*cking useful thing I've ever come across.

There's a trigger to it, you just haven't identified it yet. I still go off what seems randomly but I can later on identify why.

More so recently, especially off meds and off other mind altering substances.
 
There are days when my ass can fall off and roll in to the sewer and the whole world is in ciaos - I deal with it.

Then!!!... there is the day I may brake a shoe lace and I explode. The f*cking beast is on a tear for the balance of the day, week - whatever.

Its not what happens at that precise moment - when the lid on the tea kettle begins to lift rather than turning down the flame the beast turns it up.

Can't explain it any better.

When I'm out with family and places get a bit busy sets me off. Don't realise it at the time. Normally it's just too much to process or I've subconsciously kept my guard up and eye on certain people, who I have assessed as a 'threat'

I always realise this more when I'm at home after.
 
Hey just wondering if anyone else gets highly agitated and fly's off the handle sometimes at random, (without a definite trigger)???Am I unusual
I went to a concert recently and they used pyro shit and indoor fireworks. I was fu__ up for awhile after that. The show is normally geared for military and veterans; so I was shocked when the big bangs came out. (No shit unless there is a specific artists known for such things)
