I'm not very good at people. Spending extended periods of time with other humans has made me realize this.
I snapped today.
Feeling strong emotions of anger (hatred?) toward people is actually pretty scary. I guess I underestimate myself...
I wonder how I'm ever going to get along...

As you get older you will learn to set healthy boundaries that define the area you can handle. You will also learn to not own other people's junk. Probably what you're feeling comes from being young; some people at your age feel out of control in their own body and so people around you just seem like more work. I like to blame hormones.
You are a lovely person. Give yourself a break. When I was a teen I hated my life and would "snap" on people as well. Now I couldn't be happier and I genuinely LOVE being around people.
It was great to see you the other day (good times...good times). By the way, I should restate something I said. I love my church. I know it's not perfect and I've gotten into the habit of getting sucked into negative talk, but really I love it.
I definitely agree that anger is a scary emotion to feel. Things are never quite the same after it's released and before it is released there's all tension. I find the best way to get rid of that angry tension is to just take a break, pray, and do something else (eat, sleep, read, play).
I'm angry currently because my work just scheduled me for during the grad trip, which I told them I was going on and wouldn't be in town.
Hey - this is Brady.
I bopped my brother Nathan's nose today and was immediately furious with myself.

cait, i think thats probably a very good experience. it brings you back to the reality of who you are and what you could be capable of. yeah, like you said, never underestimate your terrible self.
