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.

  • Yes, I also tend to get irritated very quickly when overwhelmed or stressed. I used to get this with teachers back in school. There were some particular teachers I just couldn‘t stand (for different reasons… Bad teaching, annoying communication style or just mean/unfair behaviour) and during their lessons I‘d sometimes get random fits of rage due to very minor triggers. So much so that I started scratching the back of my hand, having to go to the bathroom to regulate or harm myself in other ways just to release some tension in order not to scream at the class or the teacher (I actually yelled at my class once for being loud… It wasn‘t actually THAT loud, I was just on edge).

    These very over the top and not at all proportionate reactions happen in all kinds of situations (less nowadays though) but almost always when I‘m already a bit overwhelmed or frustrated.
