Im sad to say one of my biggest motivating factors is to get revenge on my enemies. I know this is a really bad trait, but it literally has gotten me out of bed many days when at my lowest point.

In 2010, while doing business I was blackmailed, extorted, family threatened and much more from a sociopath who lives in Spain.

Between 2015 - 2017 I was bullied, name slandered, mocked, stalked and harassed online from the biggest racist hater in the history of the industry I do work in. This person is a Canadian living in Thailand.

The legal statues of limitations are up, but as I see it, if I stay within the law I can do whatever I want. Ive had an incredible life turnaround the last 5 months and it looks like I will have the means to get my revenge by the end of 2018.

So is it bad that I want revenge this much and that I actually may proceed?

Also wondering if others here think about getting some sort of revenge on the people who did crappy things to them?

I am not diagnosed as bipolar.
Yes...I have found that seeking revenge has helped me in the past. Anger gets me moving. I only wish that I felt angry more often. It has helped me get out of bad relationships, lose weight. I did not hurt anyone in the process.

All this feeling for revenge should do is have you question your motives behind this behavior. I think it is the anger that gets you out of bed, and not necessarily the desire to seek revenge. This is just my opinion.

My motives, I believe are those who do great wrongs to others should suffer appropriate consequences.

I wont deny Im angry a lot but I 100% get motivated to get out of bed, work harder, make better decisions so I can get my revenge and justice can be served. While nobody else really cares, I do, because I believe that we must all make stands against evil.

To clarify my revenge consists of exposing the deeds others did to a large audience including in the industry, to their families, friends, community.

I agree with you. I never thought my (now ex) husband would ever cheat on me though. I lost weight while we were still married. I thought 'If he won't love me somebody else will' (revenge). I lost 50 pounds while he was cheating with a dispatcher (he was a police officer) and I was unaware of his cheating. I lost 25 more pounds after I found out (that part was not revenge, it was due to depression).

Oh, I love you Slightlydelusional. I need to find something to get good and mad about!

FWIW I lost a total of 60 pounds due to my agitated depression. This was also triggered by a terrible event. I lost 45 pounds within about the first month or month in a half. The camaraderie on the diet thread helped me feel less depression and get my weight loss under control.

Motives make the person

Revenge is a never ending cycle - it eats us up inside. I shut out my enemies and move on.

[UpDownAround]

Sometimes, when someone says "I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy." I have been known to reply "I don't know; I really hate that guy..."

Well then, I am questioning if my motivation for losing weight when I was married to the police officer was actually revenge. I am not an not ate up inside by it.

Probably couldnt get any better advice than this.

What about if it starts to happen again, cause I do business in the same places and the filth is bound to return. Cant let them treat me like a dumpster.

When I am manic I am a vengeful person. Now that I am somewhat stable revenge doesn't cross my mind. But I do agree with the others maybe I need to get mad at something might motivate me.

revenge is ****ing sweet.

I can relate to this totally.

sometimes my only thoughts are

well.. I can't wait to make your life a living hell.

revenge is sweet!

i'd go a step further.. I'd lie through my teeth, risk my life, risk my friends.. for cold hard revenge

I'd do anything if the time's right

[Wonderfalls]

There are people in my industry who totally screwed up my career and my life. One of them was a genuine psychopath; I had no idea how do deal with him because dealing with his behavior and lack of feelings is so outside anything most people have ever experienced.

I still hate the people who messed me up, but there's really nothing I can do about it. I would be very very careful you don't put yourself in danger. In fact, I think the safest thing is to let it go. If they behaved the way you said they did then they are not above doing absolutely anything to get back at you. What you're talking about isn't exactly the same thing as losing weight because your ex-husband cheated on you.

This is a good point. The payback would be really huge on their end as they are very good at what they do. I just figure I need massive leverage and since Im in stealth mode I can really make it tough for them, but in the end I see your points about letting it go.

Anger is a great motivator for me, I don’t have a vengeful bone in my body though.

I use the negative energy to get me from A to B, anger played a huge part in me being able to leave my abusive exbf.

I was born to love. Whoever does any harm to me, will pay in time. By itself. I've seen it 100s of times. Why bother?.
