Ok, my mom just gave me a speech about how I'm in risk of failing this year. I'm fully aware that I have all the blame, BUT...As she speaks, and keeps speaking, I start getting angry. Even my thoughts become a horrible mess.
So, while I know it's my fault, I still get mad at her, and I find it really wrong. Even more the fact that I was talking her back at times.
Is there any advice to help me stop being so temperamental? Any is thanked in advance

Temper or not, no one likes being told they are wrong. Especially when we know we're the cause of our troubles. It requires tapping into humility our own egos don't like doing which can result in lashing out, or in this case having a temper.

It sounds like your folks care and are taking the time out to actually give a hoot about your future and academic success. Some parents don't even know what classes their kids are taking much less whether they are failing or not. Like all the other posters here have said, think on the positive rather than the negative.

When you start getting angry, try and see the point from the other person's point of view. Try taking deep breaths and thinking about things that make you happy.

Think like others : Partially done.
Deep breaths: Done.
Think about happy things: Better work on it o.o

Well that you have to do fully. Always out yourself in others shoes. Lol, best of luck mate.

Ah, hormones do a real number on emotions and tempers and stuff.

If I ever get really angry, or mad, I just walk away and avoid everyone for a bit until I calmed down. Usually doing something I enjoy helps, like reading or writing, or listening to music...

Also, counting in your head from ten, and taking a deep breath can also help.

I had a foul temper as a teen. It got better the older I got :)
Counting to ten helped me way back when.

For that particular situation, I totally get it. I got mad at my parents when I understood something I was involved with was wrong, and it just pissed me off when they went on and on about it. Maybe you aren't temperamental.

Maybe it's the fact they rub it too much on my face?:confused:
