Re: I don't even know anymore
(Anonymous) 2012-12-11 02:31 am (UTC)(link)fwiw, my dad has calmed down a lot under the influence of medication and a fuck-ton of CBT therapy, but I also never realised how much his hair-trigger screaminess when I was a teenager was entirely because of his irrational obsessive worrying he couldn't control. Because I am no longer his responsibility in any way (and couldn't be, since he's verging on unemployable drifter at this point) we actually get along. Life is weird.
Sorry, I don't know if this is helpful. Obviously you already know that part of the problem is that he goes straight from "this upsets me" to yelling without the least self-examination. I think I've learned to head that off a bit with very calm, assertive, statements of fact but I don't know if that will help in your case because staying calm under vicious irrational attack from your own father is a painful skill to learn. Maybe it helps to know that other people have felt so hopeless and frustrated they thought they were going to explode as well...
God, I hope this wasn't a creepy level of detail??? Good luck with your exam in any case ;)
