Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

For me it's more a gradual build up with distinct stages which I'm gonna list as stages for lack of a better way of explaining that irritation, trying to leave, cackling dumbfuck, calm, and beserker. Once I'm at that final stage Ive still got some rationality but it's almost all going towards being either a sadist or trying to acquire weapons, it has lead me to trying to steal at least one cops taser to specifically tase him in the nuts since I couldn't get out of my situation and figured that inflicting pain for my own amusement was the next best thing besides winning. Also I just don't feel pain in that state, in a different meltdown where I was at school I nearly crushed a different cop with one of those heavy ass metal bench tables with the rubberized coating, I was 8 I'm pretty sure I wrecked myself with that one since I slept for like 2 days straight after that meltdown.
How many run ins with the law have you had?
As an adult? None. As an abused child with severe trauma? Like 5 I think. Honestly my memory from that period is absolutely fucked, it's basically a bunch of flashes and what amounts to a list of things rather than any actually livable memory.
Basically every instance of me even getting close to going berserk since when I was around 14 has usually resulted in me just kinda fucking off, or otherwise resolving it in the calm stage. Turns out me being allowed to be alone is a great way for me to cool off. There was one instance when I was about 17 when someone punched me in the face so I hit him with a table, basically went berserk long enough to get him off me but didn't act like a sociopath since I was kinda too hungry to think at that point I was already acting like a zombie trying to get to Taco Bell for lunch.
