    I’ve seen this reposted at least 3 times now, and it bothers me each time because we have no idea the story behind it. We only know what’s written down, we don’t even know if the person who wrote the caption witnessed the event. Was it fragile masculinity? Perhaps?

      I’m pretty sure punching a wall because your fantasy football league is losing is an unhealthy way of processing anger.

        This week I found out I am losing medicade, food stamps and unemployment because one of my previous jobs won’t provide the right paper work. That feels pretty wall punch worthy

          I feel you bud. Sometimes life just blindsides you and you need an outlet. I hope things improve for you soon.

              Sounds like you’re in a very rough spot at the moment. Keep going. I won’t promise you everything will be solved, but things will change, inevitably, and change could be better. Good luck.

        Guys point is, we don’t know the why. We only know the what. Sure, I think everyone can agree it’s not the healthiest coping, but I don’t know too many people who choose the healthy option in a state of extreme emotion. Is there ANY scenario you could imagine this being understandable, even if not good or healthy? Lots of people listing scenarios where I could TOTALLY see getting a rather reasonable person into such a mental state.
