what is your experience with rage attacks? what kind of trouble had it gotten you into? what do you feel when having a rage attacks, and what triggers it?
i pinched another little girl's arm in school because she provoked me, dont remember now what exactly she did. but i wouldnt let go, and i saw a red fog and didnt remember afterward what i did.
i tried slamming a heavy suitcase into a man's head because he touched me (sexual assault) and then him and his friend kept walking. so i ran after them, (i was moving from one house to another). and i went for his head and he ducked, and then i tried slamming the suitcase into the other man, right between the legs, but he backed off. they were scared and walked away. but i could've killed him and ended up in jail.
there are ways to control rage attacks. i learned to control mine http://booksonaspergersyndrome.wordpres ... e-attacks/
what's your experience? and what other methods are there?

finaly ended up sectioned under the mental capacity act for mine,have attacked many people including police though due to having the uk definition of learning disability instead of arresting they send to a LD assessment and treatment hospital instead.
am on halperidol,tegretol and diazepam for the causes behind them but also have always used alternative communication methods,recently was given a better system that has helped reduce the amount of incidents.

My Aspie husband gets them. He breaks sh** mostly.
His are fueled by frustration over something. The rage attacks escalated until he actually came after me. I called the police because why should I put up with that? His rage had nothing to do with something I did.
Well, the police dropped the domestic violence charges because his shrink and I argued that is was a combination of medication and stress. It wasn't, but that kept him out of jail.
Jaye is coping better. I leave him alone when gets stressed out. He never did the rages around anyone else but me. The shrink told him that it showed some self control.
If Jaye ever does that to me again, punching walls and chasing after me, I'm gone. I signed up to be a partner, not a punching bag.
I don't provoke him. I don't deserve to have a person terrorize me and our child.
Jaye says he hates his brain because of this. He told me it feels good to break things. It's a release. It feels good to rage at that moment. But all through school he got his ass kicked because of the rages. He sees a red fog, and he wants to stomp whatever is in from of him.
The problem is that might work when you are younger, but as a 50 somethings guy, you're looking at jail time.
Love my husband. Just won't be a door mat.

You're right. never let anyone do this to you. you dont deserve to live in fear, neither does your kid. very kind of you to keep him out of jail. i also saw a red fog, but even when losing it, i never attacked anyone i loved, and never attacked an innocent person.
good for you for not putting up with it. if your husband can control himself around strangers, he can control himself around you. if he cant get a grip, you should leave by all means for your sake and your kid. it shows you're a strong, independent woman.
