Ten Years Later
Terry is twenty-six years old now. Heâs had several rage blackouts since that first one with his father. What bothers him is that they seem to be coming more frequently and with less provocation. Hereâs how Terry described his last rage: âIt happened a couple weeks ago. I was at a party with two friends. Iâd only had a couple beers. I wasnât drunk or even tipsy. I noticed a guy named Joey was watching me. He was looking at me funny, like he was sizing me up for a fight. I was scared but pissed off at the same time. I felt hot and cold, one right after the other, back and forth, hot and cold. Well, I wasnât going to wait for him to sneak up on me, so I walked over and challenged him. The next thing I knew, people were pulling me away. I lost about five minutes of time. They kicked me out of the party. My friends said I was cursing and yelling, screaming that I donât take shit from nobody. They said I threatened to kill that guy. They said, from the look in my eyes, that I wanted to kill him.â
Terry doesnât know whatâs happening to him. He says he feels anxious a lot, but itâs a funny kind of anxiety. âItâs like thereâs always someone ready to attack me. I have to be on the defensive. I feel like a soldier on guard duty patrolling the perimeter of a territory. You never know when somebody will start shooting at you.â Terry complains that he canât trust anyone. He feels alone and unsafe in a constantly threatening world. He just cannot break free from this feeling of impending danger. âThe funny thing,â Terry adds, âis actually Iâm in no danger at all. My father hasnât touched me since that day in my bedroom. He wouldnât dare. And I live in a perfectly safe part of town. My girlfriend is sweet and gentle. She sees me go off and doesnât understand at all why I do that. I donât understand either. Whatâs wrong with me?â
