Ever met your breaking point?

[AgonyandIrony]

Dude everyday. Like lately I'm thinking I cannot take this anymore. It's like I'm saying everything I've said before..

Spoiler: the real heart of the matter.

All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less I hear the less you'll say
But you'll find that out anyway
Just like before
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break

I went to boot camp, and learned that most people who reach that breaking point quickly, break.

The toughest, most dangerous sounding guy, the week 1 quitter.

those boot camps were 49/50 people tend to pass type boot camps? Doesnt seem like it breaks many people...

This reads like a line from that classic Juvenile song.

Huh?

 

[michal001]

When I was a kid o got caught up with some guy making and selling drugs. He made me kill somebody and melt their body in acid. Nearly broke me.

 

[zapataxiv]

Huh?

There’s a song by juvenile here he ends ever line with a “ha”. Actually it was one of the better jams to come out of the Nolia imo.

Yowza. That's one of very few situations where I'd be physical toward a woman. Probably feel awful about it afterwards but I'm not getting lumped on by a flock of ladies while I wait for someone to rescue me.

Yeah, and mind you, these women were big. No size advantage. And nothing ladylike about them. I would never hit a woman. These were not.

Came close to beating the shit out of some people right in the middle of the office at my last job. They were playing games, doing illegal shit, trying to pin it on me, then using their authority to hide. You know, doing the kind of shit that you would never get away with anywhere else but an office where you can hide behind HR. I just wanted to teach them that there are physical consequences to fucking with a man’s livlihood like that, despite them thinking they could hide behind office culture. But I think they thought they wanted that so they could fire me. So I just played their game and beat them at it. Most of them got fired.

Close. Living in the ghetto will do that to you though!

To be honest with you I could be calm even if you took sledge and smashed my brand new car in my driveway. I would just call Police and let them deal with that without much on my mind. But if lots of issues accumulate in short space of time, I could explode over petty shit. As petty as someone making a joke about me.

 

[IloveTHIS]

I'm glad my mental breakdown thread is still going.

I'm still on that line. I've become a recluse and stopped talking to all friends and family for the last week or so because I just want to work and be alone. Cant deal with the rest of the world at the moment.

I still fully expect a stranger to give me the wrong look and end up in the morgue in the coming days

That's actually exactly where I am. Nothing major has happened. Just a dozen small things happening one after another overloading my stress handling abilities

 

[HHJ]

Im a chill laid back dude but ive def been tested,and hit the point where i just wanna destroy everyone in a mile radius. But i think its normal to happen every once in a while and it will pass.

Nope always been pretty level headed. I've always been more of a pour a little sugar in your gas tank every day for the next five years than the shoot up your car right now type

This is me too. My favorite is the old rub some poison oak on your phone set and door handle, watch the fun ensue.

When I got sober at 23 years old. Worst point of my life. In retrospect, it's amazing how much shit you can do to ruin your life and piss off other people by that age.

 

[tru3f4n]

Ever been in that state of mind where you might just absolutely fucking lose it at any moments notice? Might carve a strangers face up just because they give you a tough guy look? Might riddle your neighbors car with bullet holes just because they took your parking spot? Might call your own family members fucking cunts just because you are not dealing with their shit today?

Have you? Have you?

yes getting jerked around for 18 months over a work related injury so a wind turbine company wouldn't lose their license to work federal jobs due to the amount of recordable injuries on their jobsites. I thought I was finally getting somewhere around a year into it then I got a notice from my lawyer that I needed to fill out some paperwork which I already filled out just to have another pointless mediation. I then proceeded to break everything in my field of view then said fuck it and got shit-faced.
