A Poison Tree
Poem lyrics of A Poison Tree by William Blake.

I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe;
I told it not, my wrath did grow.

And I water'd it in fears,
Night & morning with my tears;
And I sunned it with my smiles
And with soft deceitful wiles.

And it grew both day and night,
Till it bore an apple bright;
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine,

And into my garden stole
When the night had veil'd the pole:
In the morning glad I see
My foe outstretch'd beneath the tree

Mrs Elspode has often pointed out to me that I have an anger problem. In particular, I get angry when I am hurt emotionally. Instead of getting weepy and sensitive and insecure, I get *pissed*. Apparently, this is an inappropriate response to such slights.

For me, getting sober took most of the edge off of anger, and I've learned to do the equivalent of "counting to 10" (which, in my case, is more like counting to 150 or so), giving myself time to let the circumstance which provoked my anger to subside so I can examine my response before making it.

Also...antidepressants helped a lot. I have no idea if any of my experience has anything in common with yours, though.

all my anger turns inward. I've a lot of anger.

Plus time to load an pre-ban clip and plan the attack. :lol:

Els, I can relate to what you say. Being buzzed on beer can just make me veer further in the direction I'm headed wether it is giddyness or anger. It's been years since I was on antidepressants, so I don't remember anything beyond yawning a lot and not sleeping.

I think in the future I may just use a variant of the "you smelt it you dealt it" defense.
;)

Bah. That's cult-talk! Just today anger allowed me to pound a dent into a wall with my head! The Miracle of Anger! (I should charge admission to view it).

!!!!!YES, that's what I'm talking about.!!!
