Different Mentality When Playing Bullet

Just out of curiosity does anyone else feel like a totally different person when playing bullet? I find that I have to restrain my emotions more in bullet and the losses seem to be more intense. I'm just curious why that would be from a phycological standpoint. It seems to bring out a mean and vindictive side of people that I really hate, I play bullet now mostly just to understand and control it so I can better myself as a person but why would something like that even come out. I am usually one of the nicest people in the room but if you put me in a competitive environment and don't give me time to think and I lose to people I "know" I should beat or at least a game I know I should win but I blunder why does it bring that out in people. Also I never get like this in slow chess and I actually like seeing someone bust through my openings because I can learn. But in bullet it's all of and sudden like the competition is only what's important.

I think there's a definite adrenaline surge in fast time-limit games.  When I TD'd Scholastic Swiss Tournaments OTB, the time limits were 30 min/game, but ties for trophies were determined by unrated 5 min blitz games.  The players usually played the blitz games standing up and they were always the most exciting parts of the tournament!

I literally can't comprehend how people are able to play bullet at all. 5|0 is the fastest I go and I feel like I run into oversights and issues there too...

But anyway... there are so many blunders/mistakes in blitz that it does make it more exciting and stressful... Gets my adrenaline going...

Ahh adrenaline, you know what you might be right. Maybe it is more of a physiological thing rather than a physiological thing. So if that was the case then all that would need to be done to help control it is find a way to remain calm during a bullet game. It sounds hard but if it's worth a shot. At first I thought it was a self confidence type of thing but even though I'm lower rated I have decent confidence in my game, I know I'm at least good enough to avoid quick mates in general. I tried to find a comparitive sport to find other studies on it but no other game that I know of has a "1 minute" think or fail style of play. And there also doesn't seem to be a lot of phycological studies on chess players besides IQ studies
