Living with brain damage
Oh ye'h, along with lacking confidence and self belief.
My husband has terrible mood swings. When he gets an idea in his head he can become fixated on it and his forbid I should disagree with him. I'll go through he'll for days x
I'm the same I do get some wacky ideas lol
Big time. Even recognising I'm having one doesn't stop it happening.
The only solution I have is apologising afterwards

Yes my emotional control is a problem.
My emotions are up and down at times
I over react and end up crying a lot. Also my anger is easily triggered. The only way I can deal with it by only going out when necessary. I kept getting told it was depression and prescribed anti d's but they made me considerably worse! I took various ones for 2-3 years, but it isn't depression but no one would accept that!
Its horrible there is literally No way you can control it
Unfortunately I do not recognise my moods and even when I am made aware of the I find it very hard to stop with my husband but I can with people I do not live with. Wish I New why as we are now getting divorced he says because of my moods.
im on medication for mine, it works most of the time but every now and then i let fly.
im also noise intollerant, show inappropriate behaviour in doors and out, im rude was left with a speech impediment ( i swear ) and i hate strangers.
It sounds like you have it worse than me I do get very angry at times and I do tend to swear a lot my behavior is up and down at times too
Have you noticed that no swear word is harsh enough to vent your frustrations, hell, I start making them up !
Zero patience as well, ANY dozyness off nearly anyone is infuriating.
One minute you want to take on anyone, " come and have a go then " the next minute your watching watership down.....Noooooo the poor little Bunny's, Boo Hoo.
'Ain't life grand.
Definitely I say some harsh stuff at times specially to the ones I love an my patients is terrible I also feel like I always want to take on the world its crazy lol?
i dont use the c word. as far as strangers who piss me off, like my neurologist did the way she was looking at me and i responded and my psychiatrist who kept me waiting 20mins ( my wife asked me to be nice but i flew off the handle because i had an appointment at a certain time and nobody had the decency to tell me he was running late ) i have size to back up my threatening behaviour, but my wife know how to deal with me and im like a cuddly teddy.
I'm the exact same as you my fiance is always telling me to chill but once I'm missed off that it lol
Yes badly. I also seem unable to moderate my emotions and this compounds the problems
I have no patients that’s clear , and I’m always right well I like to think so
