Has anyone ever done something to themselves cause they were so mad at someone else but if they acted on that anger the outcome could be very bad?

I have a very bad anger issue due to having cyclthymic disorder and when I get upset I cant control it yet again a co-worker pissed me off stating that he doesnt get his stuff in ontime cause he is waiting for me but that isnt the case what so ever I do the owrk when he hands it to me and I nbang it out as fast as I can so he is dragging my name thru the mud and I dont like it he and I had it out a little bit nothing huge but I turned bright red slated to breath heavy and if he didnt walk away I would have gone nuts on him but I didnt I went nuts on myself and now I hurt.

So just a question wanted to see some insight

(((Erin)))

Are you hurt bad? If you are, maybe you should go to the hospital?

I don't intentionally hurt myself, like I don't cut myself or anything. But if I have a cut or a scab, when I am stressed I pick at them. Or for awhile I was (this may sound gross) cutting all the dead skin off the bottom of my feet, and I would cut down to the live skin and could barely walk.

I just finally admitted to myself that this might be a form of Self Mutilation.

Have you discussed this with your therapist?

Please take care, Erin.
