ryangian SG I have this problem since round the age of 14 but then I have not found a PROPER cure/solution to it. Many have taught me to think b4 opening the mouth but then I tend to lose control at the most critical moment or slight moment and b4 I knew it, the damage is already done and will need some mediator to settle the problem During NSF days. I also shoot off the wrong stuff and resulted in 2 of my bosses to hate 1 another and my S4 has to come out and settle the matter . Lucky he manage to clam the storm but then I know I cannot go and like this and I need a proper solution/cure to settle this "thing" in me. Have being telling myself to remember this Chinese phase.... Illness goes in through the mouth and trouble always starts from the mouth... but then.......... What I have done at school to avoid this problem is that I isolate myself from groups and only a few ppl really has the chance to communicate with me Worked for me but then I know this is only a stop gap measure and not a long term solution to it. Getting really sick of this and @ times have thought of making myself MUTE to end all this shit........................ Help if possible
Rock^Star SG Since your on-the-spot reaction is not that good, then keep quiet first, think of a strategy, then act another time later.
ryangian SG Worked, but then the same old problem will always resurface without me realizing it. Its like a naughty kid always needing the parents to constantly nag and wack him to keep him in check, once the control starts to loosen, the nonsense will start again U tell me how, unless I really keep quiet and don speak, maybe it will help, u guys think so think before you open your mouth.. it comes with practise.. from the bear Looks like I need to constantly keep myself under surveillances
the Bear SG yeah.. always be conscious of what you are going to say... that's the only way.. and it does come with practise.. good luck
Rock^Star SG yeh ryangian dude, practice makes perfect. When I was a rebellious teen, I would just shoot my mouth off, to disastrous consequences. It takes a lot of pain and conscious effort to wake up.
Kinokuniya SG I don't shoot off nonsense, but I tend to speak faster than I think. So when I was down with tonsilitis, I nearly completely lost my voice. It was extremely painful to even make a sound. So each spoken word became very precious. And because it took such a great deal of effort to speak, I began to think a lot before I spoke. Just sharing - not asking you to go get yourself tonsilitis-stricken.
a-Lost-9uY SG cos i met b4 this kind of ppl.. uhm mayb nx time when other ppl tok either its aiming u anot(whether gd/bad), always remind urself dun over-react.. or best dun take their comments to ur heart.. in this way, u will nt be piss off n tok rubbish.. btw no offense to TS
huiz SG like the others said, think before you talk. penalise yourself each time you say the wrong thing, like give $50 to every person who is present when you said the wrong thing.
kalach SG Well, practice make perfect therefore practice less. Lols. If thats the case, try to register in mediacorps or something like that. They might need someone like you. You might be the future Jack Neo or Jacky Wu!
