Autistic rage.

HighToryPsychic

So I have noticed that I have a issue with autistic rage when I am getting disregulated, you want to react violently to stop other people causing you pain and disregulating you. Like a dog barking, a loud exhaust or people talking behind you. For me this is a challenge because its very vivid and what I want to do would get me locked up, but that nervous system response is very hard to process. I need to start punching stuff to release it from my body. I play wheelchair rugby and when I get angry playing its this energy which I am using. Does anyone else have any issues with this? Thanks.

  • You say autistic rage like it's something particular to autism, I'm not sure it is, or at least not entirely. You say disregulated, what in NT's would be rightfully angry and upset? 

    Why are we not allowed to be rightfully upset and angry?

    Could it be that we're upset and angry because the world tells we can't be, that we have to grateful for every crumb that falls from the NT table?

    Can we not have a normal bad day that leaves us feeling grumpy and irritable and like we want to kick things?

    I tend to sublimate my anger and rage at the injustices of the world and the general annoyances, by watching violent films, every now and again, I need to see Russel Crowe as Gladiator shout 'are you not entertained?' to a crowd who've paid for blood and don't like it when it happens to fast. I need to see him batter the hell out of Commodus in the arena. I need to watch Uma Thurman in Kill Bill, bash a rapists head in with a door. I need to watch Katherine Winnick as Lagaetha, just being a good warrior.

    I don't feel horrified by it anymore, I accept it as the alternative is far worse, I'd turn that anger inward and self destruct, or it would end up with someone on the recieving end of it, maybe justly, maybe not so much. If it was justly I wouldn't feel at all bothered.
