I’m the type of person to lash out when I’m mad, say things I don’t mean at the moment, let my feelings affect my mood and actions and who is extremely defensive when it comes to criticism. Unfortunately, the closer people are to me the worse I am and the quicker I tend to forget my unintentions. It’s probably obvious and safe to say that when it comes to my mom or boyfriend, I show no mercy. I’m not afraid to scream, cuss and give attitude to them however if it was anyone else, hesitation would most likely kick in. It’s a really bad habit that I’ve been growing for the past few years and I know it doesn’t do anything but escalate the problem. Although I’m still having a hard time, I find it easier for me to control my emotions now (ew, I sound like such a girl) and the quality of my relationships are noticeably better.
