Have you ever lost it

Or seen anyone lose it. I'm talking just snapping of all sudden over something trivial.

Michael Douglas in Falling Down would be a good example.

Im not sure I ever had it in the first place to be honest

ballsymchugh · 16-08-2011 07:09PM

nah, there's no situation a cup of tae can't diffuse.

Princess Peach · 16-08-2011 07:10PM

Don't so much as "lose it" but more of a nervous breakdown kinda thing. Used to be fairly constant, but I've gotten better this year.

Very almost had one today, stressful work!

I do have a fiery temper too, but only for good reasons. Best to never cross me.

And yes I have seen someone lose it before over not much. Left a sting on my cheek

Once or twice!!

When I lose it....I REALLY loose it!!

I'd to break into a sweet shop this one time. Well, instead of a guard dog, they've got this bloody great big Bengal tiger. I managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shopowner and his son... that's a different story altogether. I had to beat them to death with their own shoes. Nasty business, really. But, sure enough, I got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show.

stupidusername · 16-08-2011 07:12PM

I thought I lost it, but then they changed what it was.

mackg · 16-08-2011 07:12PM

A friend threw some salt on me, a tiny satchet, and I flipped out and started punching him in the face til the lads broke it up. I don't miss being a teenager.

Frank Black · 16-08-2011 07:13PM

Yeah.
I like to bottle up all the anger and frustration of everyday life and the let it explode every few months.

Samich · 16-08-2011 07:13PM

I'll always have my virginity.

Links234 · 16-08-2011 07:15PM

yep. I have. completely snapped at a friend over something fairly recently, and I think it really scared the crap out of him. I really apologized afterwards.

bnt · 16-08-2011 07:16PM

NO! I NEVER F**KING LOSE IT! WHAT KIND OF F**KING QUESTION IS THAT?!? $#@€;%! +"*^($" NO CARRIER

Temptamperu · 16-08-2011 07:18PM

I lost it at a couple of friends when i was younger, dont know about what... they dont talk to me no more because im volatile

Saila · 16-08-2011 07:19PM

over something trivial you say?..no

phasers · 16-08-2011 07:21PM

It's always been provoked. Once in school I threw a girl across a room but this was after the screamed at me for 10 minutes, and another time a few years later I had a total meltdown in class but that was because my cnut of a teacher kept picking on me and I was fed up of it.

I find that nobody loses it over nothing, it's always been building up for a long time.

Yeah over nothing. Should have also said for a minute or longer. I think we're all capable of snapping at someone on our worst day. When I say 'lose it' I mean completely going into meltdown. Like thrashing a shop because they only have chilled bottled water, not water at room temperature

Mr Benevolent · 16-08-2011 07:29PM

No, I very rarely, if ever, lose it. I feel sorry for people who get really angry over little things, it's one of the ways we distinguish ourselves from animals.

Mr. Presentable · 16-08-2011 07:30PM

Just once. Playing football. I'd been kicked, niggled, pushed for about an hour and took it in good grace. Then I was cut down from behind.

I don't remember actually reacting but remember being hauled by two other blokes off the offender, and my hands around his throat. I wanted to kill him

MugMugs · 16-08-2011 07:33PM

foxinsox · 16-08-2011 07:34PM

I lost my temper hugely once. I still cringe when I think about it. It's one of the most embarrassing things a person can do to him/herself. It reflects terribly on them.

People who exercise no self discipline are essentially choosing to be weak. It's a cop-out. Now, I tend to make a caustic quip and go off, or say nothing and move away (depending on the circumstance). Generally, though, I don't lose my temper because whatever the problem is, it will pass. It's not worth it. Ah, experience.

Speak for yourself

alwaysadub · 16-08-2011 07:50PM

Just the once. I'd a lot going on at the time and bottled it up and took it out on one of the lads in work.
I don't really get worked up at all these days.

That doesn't make any sense, animals don't get angry.

Vanbis · 16-08-2011 08:15PM

I was playing football on a sunday and this bloke was throwing elbows every few seconds. I saw red when he had the ball and i shouted out He's Mine and tore half way down the pitch and smashed straight into him winning the ball. I didn't see him for the rest of the game after
