I just hit my older brother in the face...

Bloody hell. I am on this forum and I have almost gone into every forums because things crop up. Tonight me, my bro and a mate were on a bench by a road drinking a beer, chilling out basically. All night they have been being hyper twats basically. My mate threw a bottle into the road, and another probably and then my bro thew some into the road too. I was saying to them 'Oh bloody hell, it's a wednesday night' (Might as well have been those words) and this car ran over the bottles and looked at us, I was so emabarresed. My bro and my mate were just saying 'oooh wasn't us' and the bloke went and picked up some left bottles making me feel sorry for the bastard. anyway my mate went home and he said sorry for being an backside, and my brother gave me a huge lecure on the way back how 'OHHH You're not even 18 yet and you're being an uptight twat...bla bla', saying I was a hypocrit and stuff. Ok, I might have thrown bottles before...but not in the road, and with my brother saying that I don't have a good point and lecturing me harshley about being an uptight backside I just couldn't find the words to support myself, even trying to end the argument, saw red, and hit him in the face. I ran, then I walked back. I knew he'd be there as I walked back and he hit me in the head (not badly) and I ran back to my house. He's here too, but I think These sort of things boil over, always have. He's 20 and I'm 17. It's just amazing how much you say to yourself not to get angry at the slightest thing, but sometimes I think It's inevitable with my brother. I just couldn't stand what he was saying, and I think that if you can't speak for yourself, your fist does it for you in a more concequentful way. sorry, a bit long, but since I found this place I thought I might write about my anger bursts.

Hello UKHeadcase,

From your post I can tell your a sensible person for your age with some integrity. My suggestion to you is avoidance. Your brother can be a source of anger for you. Whenever you feel as though a conversation or action is going to trigger anger, you must just walk away. The hard part of this is catching yourself as you began to get angry.

In the story you wrote it sounded as though your anger slowly elevated until you had to hit your brother. Allowing your anger to reach its peak is your problem. There's more to anger management than just not getting angry, its learning how to avoid those situates that prompt anger.
