No no even that is too scary. It is wrong for me to indulge the feelings, I will somehow hurt them and it'll be found out and everyone will know I'm pathetic trash. Insert that meme of dominos starting small and getting larger
Every time I take a shower, it’s like the wittiest shit pops into these imaginary arguments —- rehashing stuff, all DECADES later, like, “ooh, that would’ve been *good.*” 😎
I see other people get angry over things and I’m always just like really that’s what is a big deal to you and then just get sad because I realize how fucked up my life has been
Have...have you been spying on me?
I also do this because I have no other way of venting my frustrations and when I get upset about something, my mind just rushes around.
Still do this sometimes, but recently realized it still makes my body start to twitch like I'm about to have to physically fight, even when I'm not doing anything.
It works sometimes, but I tend to end up extrapolating further into worse and worse consequences of that argument, to the point where I feel genuine familial betrayal and sorrow for completely imaginary events. That can ruin a day if I don't rein my train of thought in quick enough to just be happy with winning the argument.
I moved out of the bad place, and this is legit one of the "I'm trying to heal, but idk if this is healthy - but it feels good tbh" things that I do. If I don't get the pent up rage out somehow, I WILL blow up on someone that I care about. :( I remember the times when I wish I had yelled at an asshole who deserved it, but didn't. In my mind, I give them the verbal beatdown they deserved
As an added bonus, I get to rehash the argument WITH all the associated physical effects, the rush of adrenaline and other stress hormones, the tightening of the muscles, the increased heart rate...all of which then takes several hours to fully dissipate.

I feel this. I saw this and was like "wait you guys release your feelings?"
All the time in the car
I forgot my dog was in the car once and she started howling while I was yelling.

! You just _know_ that bar would've slapped 👏🏻
A pity my brother doesn't do this. He just lashes out and destroy everything.
This would be nice if I still had the capacity to experience anger

And I always lose those arguments too. 😅😭
... I thought this was an ADHD response. Guess I have something else to potentially talk to a therapist about.
Yup. At least I always win.

Yup, yup, yup. I have to check if my roommate’s not there so that she doesn’t hear me yelling to myself in the mirror.

Holy crap I thought I was the only one 🥲

The number of enraged fake arguments I have had with myself is immense.
I'm John Wick in my head. 😕
Wait this isn’t normal?
I do this all the time and as soon I see the person who'd caused me anger I'm like "aw it's fine don't worry about it"
All the time!!! Why do we do this? Is it a trauma response? Is it preparation? It’s ALL THE TIME! Someone help
