Serious question…?

[Anonymous]

It’s a bit of a detailed story, I’ll try to make it as short as I can. My boyfriend and I have been together for 6yrs and we have 2 kids together (5 and 2). He’s an overall good guy but he’s got some major anger issues and I’m not sure how to handle it anymore. He’s broken at least $1000 worth of controllers (tv, xbox, PlayStation), computer monitors, out tv, cups, plates, he’s gone through 3 phones because he gets so angry and reaches for the closest thing and then hurls it. It’s almost always over video games though. Like he can’t take losing. And then when our boys are sleeping, he SCREAMS at the top of his lungs. Like SCREAMS, swearing… all of it. Talks about offing himself and how he hates his life… because he’s losing a game? This isn’t normal, I already know that. I’m just not sure how to go about this anymore. I can’t financially support myself and our kids but I really don’t want to be around this anymore. Note: I’ve always tried to address this with him but he thinks I’m overreacting or that I’m being sensitive.

Have him play somewhere else, or evolve... not to play. needs serious talking to.

Take up a real sport like tennis or golf... then he can throw his clubs, but at least it's exercise and away from the kids.

also he needs a therapist for his perfectionism and lack of self esteem.

He has serious anger issues. It's normal to feel upset after a loss in competition, but breaking things and acting the way he is, isn't healthy for anyone. He's setting the example for your children on how to behave. Is this what you want them to learn? He needs therapy and a detox from video games until he can better cope with losing.

You need to get out of that relationship for you and your child’s sake it’s not safe if he can break stuff he’s a psychopath

Consult an attorney. You can kick him out and the courts will make him pay child support. A win win for you.

Get him some help. Seeing a therapist should help.

No people get mad. It happens to me too. I throw remote controls.
