Me neither, and since I've started playing real money I've thrown things several times. People I know would be SHOCKED. I'm kind of the quiet type. I haven't destroyed anything though. I can't afford to be tearing up my stuff.

OP I empathize.

I think the advice to start some kind of exercise routine or get a punching bag is solid. I used to have major anger problems when I was a teenager, punching holes in walls, breaking things, etc. I started doing Tae Kwon Do and it really helped me relieve the tension and learn self control.

Standard, one time I accidently stabbed my cat 48 times when some donk hit a 16 outer on me with two cards to come. If you've never completely obliterated your house playing internet poker you're probably a sociopath and should see a psychologist, NOT ME BITCH, im how you should be.

Greek,

You're obviously struggling with many things in life. This is a very bad time for you to play poker. You should seek professional help, maybe get on some sort of medication and start dealing with all your problems. Sort it out before even thinking playing poker semi-seriously, concentrating on poker right now is probably very bad for your mental health.

If you feel like you really have to play and/or want to hone your skills, drop down several levels so you're 110% in your comfort zone, and read books & study your play a lot to keep yourself occupied.

Conclusion: poker = bad
