I don't know what did light up a fire in me over the past since 2007, but it made me accomplish far more than I ever thought I could.


That said, I feel angry almost all of the time, so I use humor, career-building activities (like holding several full time jobs such as teacher, Martial Arts Instructor, business owner, engineer, consultant, etc. at once plus AutoCAD work) and loads of exercise to mitigate it.


Maybe it's just me being fed up with how much iniquity the world has, but it sure makes me flare up and train like there's no tomorrow.


Any ideas on other ways to vent anger besides those kinds of activites? I'd like to not be so angry almost all the time if that is possible, but every therapist I ever spoke with said they would have a heart attack over a fraction of the events I made it through successfully. One of them even had a panic attack when I casually mentioned students taking marijuana and vape in the restrooms, and that's like nothing compared to what I put up with daily.


I've been assaulted many times, and that is not even on my radar of things that bother me, except to mention just how trivial that is compared to other things. The only thing about that I will say now is that small projectiles slingshotted at my eyes was not a major concern, and I was easily able to get the student under control and do good work in my class every day thereafter, because I made it clear that he has a future (and he did: he is now a professional engineer in the work force; that was the first time anyone ever told him he had any potential in anything, and that angers me that others gave up on him).


So, video games, weightlifting, etc., what would you all suggest as hobbies that are great for positive venting? I attached videos to show how trivial it is to blitz bags even in a very quiet environment and blindfolded.


I feel almost like a hornet at times; something made me angry, and I just got angrier. There was nothing I could do at the gym to mitigate it all, even running the full circuit and maxing a bunch of machines.


If I had to pinpoint it: it's the teaching:

out of every medical, engineering, Tae-Kwon-Do, fitness, and related achievements I have ever done, none of them compare to the brutal efforts of teaching.

When I teach proactively on my feet for ten minutes, it is much more physically demanding than forty nine hours of nonstop extreme training at a 24-hour gym. I actually felt physically tired for a week for being on my feet for ten minutes at a school, and there was a whole bunch of scoffing at "incompetent teachers" until I said "enough" and proceeded to one hit KO major combat sports actors at their own places, with permission to spar them, because of all the violence they promoted over the years.

And nearly every profession mocked and scoffed teachers: engineering, soldiers, the medical profession, CEO's, etc. And every single one that did was laid low:

- Combat sports was crushed.

- My former superior was the best Vietnam tunnel rat and the 1965 undefeated champion of the Park Military Tournament; he finally lost to me in 2020, at the peak of his endurance, and I told him if I lost, I would never train again, and if I won, I take his rank at his Martial Art, and I won: I wear the ninth degree belt signifying the head of the Royal Order of Korea Military he once led.

- The best engineers cannot comprehend how I got a fourteen year old to design the hardest model in AutoCAD and related history in a matter of hours, even according to prodigies at 3D AutoCAD.

- I helped develop a working cure for type II diabetes that recieved the ire of many medical doctors and world experts, even death threats from them.

- Business owners were floored that mine survived covid as a start up, without ever needing loans, and brought low their prices for their clients and cut out their extortion.

- And so much more.

"It's not fair! This was my magnum opus, and I was called a prodigy among prodigies. I was _so_ close to solving this. Your kids did this in a week, and you're just a teacher!"

Yeah, that is _exactly_ why!

All these years of scoffing teachers, how right God Is to pick one to pick your best prodigies apart easily.

Those that can, teach. Chew on your two million dollar inferior 2D AutoCAD at Tesla and Space X and your pretend 3D AI Auto-Generated Revit the next time you wish to scoff teachers. Here's my fourteen year old's superior work and skill done manually, line by line, in AutoCAD, with only hours of me teaching him, and no sophomore high school credits at all, as an "unteachable write-off".

<==8 [I was a tunnel rat back in viet nam] a Corporal in the USMC

What's the guys name wearing the hat

I don't care what his name is. I just wanna know what he's got past the zipper and the underwear. :blush::shy::evil::evil::evil: 🍆 :wub:

I love how easy it is nowadays to point out such a surprise fact.

"Remember Indiana Jones vs. the swordsman?"
Me: Remember how the first rule of a tunnel rat is don't shoot; you give away your position? Oh right, you got your ideas from TV; I got mine from survivors of Viet Cong with bayonetted AK's that had only their bare fists most of the time in the tunnels.

I had to explain to modern soldiers why a sniper two miles away is a very different outcome than a man with a long barrel within arm's reach that hasn't pointed it at someone yet. The police always tell their officers to keep a pistol close to their bodies instead of "Hollywood" style due to the vulnerability of holding a sidearm way out in the open away from oneself.

We had a lot of fun training the police. The modern ROK stinks at knife fighting defense:



Vietnam ROK troops, on the other hand, really exploded into action, hence the name: Tiger Division.

So if you really were a tunnel rat in Vietnam, thank you for your service! I have a lot of respect for Vietnam Veterans in general and especially Tunnel Rats. Those guys can move and fight, unlike combat sports world champions.

We did extreme body conditioning. I can take 25 lb dumbell punches to my nerve bundles on my body beneath my neck with minimal discomfort and no significant bruising. This helps when one accidentally drops an inactive clothing iron on one's foot on the way to work in the morning while preparing to iron a button-down shirt to put a blazer jacket over. I suffered no bruises nor lasting pain from it. Hence a co-student said having jaws get him out of a totaled car after someone slammed into him on the highway only made him feel sore for a day and joke about it being "light sparring" vs. the leader at the time.

uhhh, make that 4. I forgot his 🥚🥚 s
it only got scuffed; I can clean its face now that I've cleaned its clock.

Some days do feel like this when your co-students are level IV world class certified bodyguards.

The former president/dictator of South Korea's personal bodyguard was also trained directly by our leader back then.

Perhaps with a life like this, I really shouldn't be so angry anymore.

Not a single bruise on me from a twenty pound dumbell. The pain went away, but not the sensitivity of the nerves (they did not go numb, indicating the damage level of a mosquito bite or less) within seconds. I feel perfectly fine now. All it did was made me feel a bit hungry.

Interestingly enough, the dumbell twenty pound weight thrust into my solar plexus hurt the least and recovered the fastest. There is a reason a heavyweight pro boxer on a full adrenal rush could not even hurt me at all with a backhand power punch to my jaw. We train well.
 
"Post-sepsis anger is a common emotional symptom of Post-Sepsis Syndrome (PSS), often appearing as irritability, being "snappy," or intense frustration stemming from the traumatic life-threatening event and its lingering effects, sometimes developing into PTSD, anxiety, or depression, and requiring mental health support to manage."

No wonder I am very angry since recovering from sepsis.

I feel like I am seeing red.

I nearly snapped and lashed out tonight.

This must be the effect of the sepsis recovery.

No, and I've gotten thinner after eating.

I am super angry and trying to keep myself under control.

Eating is what I do when I am in a happy mood. When I am under pressure, I do not eat as much.
 
Post-sepsis anger:
  • Feeling easily irritated, "snappy," or moody. - check
  • Intense frustration with your own body or recovery pace. - check
  • Flashbacks, nightmares, or bad memories of the hospital stay. - check
  • Feeling alone or misunderstood by others - check
The hardest part of post sepsis recovery is the near desire to drop dead, combined with the exhaustion to pull it off.


"People recovering from sepsis can experience intense emotional distress, including feelings of wanting to "drop dead,"
often due to severe anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and cognitive issues from post-sepsis syndrome (PSS) or post-intensive care syndrome (PICS), which stem from the brain's response to inflammation, oxygen loss, and trauma from the near-death experience, making sudden death feel like an escape from overwhelming mental and physical suffering, while death does occur more often in survivors due to ongoing immune issues and organ damage, creating a vulnerable state."

I feel frustrated and tired enough that I could drop dead right now. Sepsis is not like a run of the mill pneumonia or cancer.

I won't do it. But it's tempting to just let myself be too exhausted to keep going.

If you're a workaholic and an over-achiever, how did you even end up without access to medical care to get to a point of that full-body poisoning thing? But my advise - go crack the code on some new invention whose patent you can rent out and retire to happily teach, train, game, and not have to worry about getting medical care in an acute and dire situation. Either way, get that sepsis situation out of your system and just do what you normally do for "fun."

"If you're a workaholic and an over-achiever, how did you even end up without access to medical care to get to a point of that full-body poisoning thing?"

Answer: The U.S.: they reward laziness here to the extreme and shun a solid work ethic.

teacher: "I put in 22 hours a day and broke records at the job regarding student success and even as noted by the professors who give them college engineering courses and say my teaching made them ace their hardest coursework; do I win?"

Admins: "Hahaha no. Our best employee is that man over there sitting down watching amazon prime all day and never doing his job while his kids have emotional issues and are overwhelmed with zero support. You are just our competition, so we now need to get rid of you before you make the rest of us look too bad."

"But why?"

"Well it's simple Mr. _, look at how we treated Jaime:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaime_Escalante
You should have sold your soul and gave up on the students to let them commit murder-suicide worse than Sandy Hook when you had the chance. we cannot forgive a teacher who raises a former juvenile felon to suddenly get a six figure engineering job by turning his life around. It's bad for traffi...I mean, business."

The point hits harder when school board members actually led trafficking in a county before being caught and arrested:

https://wlos.com/news/local/jury-in...enderson-county-crime-minors-offenses-charges

I Hope it's okay to you all that I don't fit in with a crowd like that and thus did not come back.

I've always had issues fitting in and getting along with Sociopaths; I Hope that is not a flaw on my part.
