Yes, I do experience sudden and explosive anger quite often, actually. I didn't used to until about 4 or so years ago....guess I'm just not as good at holding everything in as I used to be, anymore.
The most recent occasion was actually today at church...w/out going into too much detail, today's entire sermon had (what I thought was ) an incredibly ableist overarching theme to it, and hearing it (and knowing the NT churchgoers were hearing it too and probs agreeing with it all) made me very angry, but it wasn't like I could start screaming, punching myself in the head, biting/scratching myself, grabbing hymnals and throwing them, kicking the pew in front of me, or turn over this huge chest that was only a couple feet away from where I sat and stomp on it, so I basically just stewed over it for the remainder of the service, and am still stewing about it. And who knows, I'll probably have a meltdown over it at some point in the not-so-distant future.
....Although, at this point, I've realized that I've never had any actual "real" friends in real life and am never ever going to (and I've made my peace with that), so I honestly don't understand why I shouldn't just act however I want when I get set off. It'd serve everyone right, tbh. I'm tired of always having to hold everything in and hurt myself just so everyone else can continue being happy.
