Do I Need Anger Management? When I Lose In Video Games,i Throw My Controller Down On The Carpet Floor And Wall
when i play video games and i lose or when something doesnt go the way i expected, sometimes i would get mad and slam or throw my xbox 360 wireless controller down on the carpet floor or the wall. once i threw it on the floor and it bounced up and hit my lcd tv screen, luckily it didnt crack or anything. so after that, i threw it to the side. it would bounce up and hit the wall and make some scratches on the controller. this happens mostly when i play sports games. is this normal towards people or is it only me? do i need anger management classes?

Well, if so then I need it too. My rage tends to brought out by sports games as well (particularly Madden) and of course, fighting games. I seem to recall my SNES controller missing the X & Y buttons on account of Shao Khan’s cheap, bastardly methods. I think people also thought I had Tourette’s or something too. So, to answer your question….no.
Oh, and don’t forget about dodging lightning 200 times too, Jose. That was rid-god-damn-diculous.
heres what you need to do
first when you lose the gme get something to bite on
and when you lose put all your anger into that thing
next is to controll your hands
first get a pillow punch on it as hard as you can before you play the game
then when you lose you will be tire and wont break the controller
hope this helps
nah alot of people do this like me and my brother do this
usually id say your crazy and need to seek help but no your not… i experiance this all the time
never again will i try to get below zero seconds in the chocobo race in final fantasy 10…
depends really if you keep losing or failing a mission then no just try not to break anything i couldn’t beat double dragon for the nintendo i got to the end after playing for like a day and a half only to die with no continues left i got so mad i threw my controller at the nintendo then it didn’t work anymore it couldn’t play my games anymore lol
no i do this too
first some people do that but i just think u went a little over board if that happens again try to take your anger on something else not a human OK lol like try a pillow try and control your self b4 u do something that can kill your TV, you, or someone else
I think its normal becouse i know how frustrating it gets when you keep losing over and over agian in a game, although i dont take it out on the controller. Sooner or later your controller is going to break if you keep doing that, just hit your bed or chair alot instead.
no it is not, i have had the same problem. I used to have a game boy advance and one time I got mad and slammed it on the floor and ink came out and it broke. Another time I threw my controller to my game cube out the window and it hit a tree and broke. But its ok because i got help. ask your school counselor about classes, but in the meantime use a stress ball or a pillow
