UNder close supervision, I threw my first hissy, conniption fit at the age of 40. It was quite thrilling.

I was just wondering how your hissy form compares to mine. Not that there is anything wrong with my form....

Well I'm half Irish so I have a temper anyway. I often have hissy fits. They usually consist of me throwing things breaking things, I have thrown my laptop against the wall, on one occasion I hit my head against the wall and needed stitches, just last week I smashed a mirror with my hand and now have 8 stitches and an infection!
It is a little exhilarating though I have to admit, to act like a complete loony without caring, I usually get palpitations and shortness of breath too.And I can hear my heart thumping in my ears......it's pretty intense!

I love the word conniption!!! I had it stuck in my head for days like you would a song... it was the weirdest thing.
I personally have a cinniption the same way I did when I was a teenager only I don't throw stuff now or do any other type of property damage. Nah... I'm not that bad anymore. But I swear a lot - usually the "f" bomb. And if I am really mad I'll yell. The normal stuff...
"Don't have a fricken cinniption!!!"

I don't know if it counts as a hissy, conniption fit, but this afternoon I just had to repeatedly swear as loud as I could at the person in my life who should be supportive of me, not irritating to me.
I need an adjustment to my antidepressant and she makes things much worse.

Lol. My husband says "When her face turns red and her eyes turn white, brace yourself because there's a storm about to be turned loose"
People have learned to vacate the premises post haste. I don't throw them very often, but when I do, it's a doozy, and they vary according to exactly how pissed off I am. I have left bruises on my legs from banging my arms on my sides, broke my toe once because I kicked the damm van when it wouldn't start, lost my voice from screaming at glass shattering levels, and slammed a cooler (the kind at convince stores) so hard the door stuck...with me in there.
Then there's the silent ones...less noise, more destruction. I once pulled the flowers off every one of my mother's tulips in a fit of rage, replaced the sugar with salt, and one time I took the heads off every one of my sister's Barbie dolls and lined them up on her headboard while she was asleep.
I had issues growing up (lol) and yes, I AM medicated.

First, you gotta have REAL sweet tea. Not that YANKEE stuff THEY call tea, but the REAL thing made hot and sugar added the moment the brew is at its steaming perfection. Don't give me any of that, "her is your tea, and over there is sugar, or sweetener", crap I don't wanna hear that. If I wanted that offal I would not have asked for "DAM*ED SWEET TEA". I would have asked for sewer water, or maybe even "LIGHT BEER", and don't even get me started on THAT BULL CRAP! LIGHT BEER, the only beer I want to have lighted is the BEER in the SIGN in my DEN. So there. Dont give me any more of that stupidity, and just bring me my SWEET TEA like I asked for in the first place, and get your butt in gear!

I slam doors [ note chipped paint on all frames in my house] I bang dishes and pots[ very noisy !] I throw dirty looks. I use very big words to make the person feel very dumb. I don't realize it but I stamp me feet cause my dog does it when she wants her own way. I feel much better when I am done !

a proper hissy fit should involve lots of slamming of doors (cupboard or otherwise), plenty of ranting, yelling and rhetorical speeches directed to no-one in particular.
oh, and don't forget the fierce glare!! ;-)

I just thought about this since you asked....it has been years and years since I have done that.
Forgot to answer the other part....
I stomp my feet, scream while shaking my head, clench my fist and teeth.....throw books on the floor.
