My mother couldn’t tolerate anything but 100s or As (perfection), and she had a raging temper.

I couldn’t get those perfect grades when I was a kid.

I did have an A average in college.

What do you know, peace and not being subjected to all the rage attacks and I could actually function in college. It was so bad that I was suicidal when I was a kid. I think genetics + the severe abuse caused me to be bipolar.
