ORIGINAL: LordODiscipline Being angry, sad, pissy, or exhuberant is not an absolute indication of someone losing control... simply of their emotional state at the time....(or, they may be being manipulative) Hello A/all, This is exactly true. Screaming at the person serving your food in a restaurant because they brought you Manhattan Clam Chowder instead of New England Clam Chowder. Beating somebody to a bloody pulp because they cut you off in traffic. Or my personal favorite which one of my co-workers told me today: She went over to her soon to be ex-husband's house. They got into a screaming match. He walked away when she tried to slap him. So she got into her car and drove it into the side of his new truck, smashing the front end of her car (I saw it) and probably enough damage to total the truck. Then she screamed where she was working and drove off. Felony hit and run. These are examples of losing control. It is not what you feel that determines loss of control. It is what you DO with those feelings that matters. Just me, could be wrong, etc. Sinergy I totally agree. And probably said a lot more succinctly than my earlier post did.
