She doesn't have to be perfect at all the time. She or anyone else can blow up when ever they please, but don't justify it as good and normal behaviour. I got really angry like that too when I was in elementary school and didn't know how to handle things thrown my way. |
I agree. Occasionally losing one's temper is completely abnormal. What a normal, healthy person does is make a tight ball of rage and force it down deep, deep inside. And then, when you can't force it down any more, you just push a little harder. That, my friends, is true mental and emotional well-being. |
Until you eventually, one day, blow up and freak everyone out. |

There are other ways of fixing this. No wonder everyone blows up all the time. They seem to have no idea of how to cope with stress and where it comes from. |

Or get sick.
One has to let that stress out somehow, but the trick is to turn it into something positive. Go to the gym, go running, play drums...anything, but don't just swallow it. |
