The Rage (aka sugar imbalance, Intermittent Explosive Disorder) Anonymous
Every so often I get IED. It almost always happens when I need to skip breakfast because of something stupid. Regardless of the reason, the result is that my sugar gets unbalanced. When that happens I become a ticking time bomb. The slightest thing will cause me to rage, hard. It can be something as simple as tying a shoe or miss-clicking the mouse. Once the rage starts it will snow ball until 1 of two things happens. 1, I eat. 2, I realize I'm raging because I've not had anything to eat.

When I was a kid up until my late teens this could be a big problem because I and my parents lacked the knowledge of the condition. It seems most everyone has this problem as I've seen it a great deal in other people.

Now that I know what the problem is I can usually control the rage because I can say to myself, "I need food now!"

But, every so often you come up against someone that likes to press your buttons. God have mercy on their soul if you can't control it.

I think IED is responsible for many violent incidents among people.

Some people like to use the term, "anger management". Just hearing the phrase, "You need to use some anger management," is enough to make you rage. I like the term, "food management." It'd be much better for someone to say, "Here, have some food."

Intermittent Explosive Disorder is the way of 4chan. Especially, /v/. Those little fuckers do nothing but eat candy and junk food then burst veins in their foreheads or the littlest things.

I don't think it's fair to call it a disorder. People need to and ARE CAPABLE OF exercising self control. We don't all need to have our hands held just to get through a little period of lethargy from not having enough food.

No, I'm not skinny. I know a ton of people that I've seen it happen to on a regular basis. Some are grossly overweight by 350-400lbs and others are skinny as a rail. Every time if you can get some food in them they return to normal.

I went camping one time with my girlfriend at the time. We had a wee tiny breakfast and had to cut it short or we'd miss some event a little later that morning. By the time we made it to the place to go hiking with a group we were practically biting each others' head off. We'd actually decided to cancel everything because we were so pissed. While walking back to the car I realized why we were so pissed off for no apparent reason. So, I told her and decided we needed to go get some real food. Almost the instant we bit into the food we felt better and far less angry. We ended up having a really good day.

Hmm. I've always been aware of this in myself when I spazz out like this... I'll have to give people food when they get pissed.

Agreed, but it's easier to google when you can call it by a name.

Frankly I think people are over diagnosing things and then over medicating things. Like ADD. I think the biggest problem with ADD is parenting and people not having enough patience to deal with kids in the first place. It's like they forgot they were a kid and how they acted. Oh, but that's okay we can just dope up our kids and every thing will be fine.

Guess what, they have medication for "intermittent explosive disorder". That in itself makes me want to rage.

Sometimes I feel like going back in time and getting all the people who were alive before common sense died in charge of everything.

lol Exactly.

I've found it's better to put a little of the trouble on yourself. Like, "I'm hungry. Are you hungry? I'm about to fucking hulk out. If I don't get some food I'm going to rip someone's head off. Let's go get something to eat."

We live in an age where health care is far too good. If you are stupid and cut your leg off with a chainsaw you might just live to tell about it. Before you'd die and your stupidity would die with you. But no, now the stupid among us can get good health care and live longer in order to breed more stupid people.

That is the reward for sympathy.

lol My wife's ex-husband finally found my email address and decided it was a good idea to send me a really nasty email. So, I played the holier than thou part and told him that the things he was saying was not "nice" and that he needed to seek professional help for his anger disorder. I recommended that he find a psychologist that could get him a prescription to keep him normal.

His next email included death threats and a dozen pictures of gore from some goregallery.com site he detailed each picture in how he was going to torture and kill me. Of course I showed this email to my wife's lawyer and he was finally able to get her custody of her kids on the grounds that he was an unfit parent. Evidently, when the cops showed up to ask him about everything they caught him on a bad day and he thought they were there to raid his place for drugs. He flipped out and made the mistake of shooting at them. They shot him in the leg and now he's in prison getting fucked in the ass because he is a gimp and couldn't control his anger.

lol lol lol lol hahahahhahahahaha!!! I win! :D

What's even worse than that is the 40% of the population on antidepressants when ALL THEY NEED IS A BUDDY TO TALK SHIT OUT WITH ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK

That's very true. No one really ever listens to people anymore. I was sitting at the mall the other day in the food court. I was watching people coming out of the movie theater.

EVERYONE was talking on a cell phone. They were talking about the movie and how cool or uncool it was. Most were with a date or a group of friends.

I remember when you talked to the person you saw the movie with about the movie you just saw together, not people who weren't there.

Who do these people talk to when they have a problem? No one.

I've been witness to a few road rage incidents. I lol every time. But, I've always wondered what really set them off. I mean it's not that bad out there so they have to have had something to get them on edge enough to duke it out in the middle of the road.

It's funny how people and our society has to put a name/illness on everything.

Spend a few bucks and you'll feel better...
Buy pills, see a doctor you'll be fine.

Or go run for one or two hour and you'll feel much better.Speak with a real friend and you'll feel much better.Get laid and you'll feel much better.
All free maybe except getting laid as we all know :p

People don't want that. They want instant relief without any work. Take a pill, fix the problem, etc. :(

Hypoglycemia

I have it. I have to eat regularly or I begin to get irritable and light-headed.

Next I become down-right angry and down-right confused. I also get woozy.

After that I don't really know. I've always managed to get food when it gets that bad.

Everyone has it. It's a survival mechanism. You don't eat, you get irritable, you go hunt for food.
