She may use it more often in times stress because it helped her through the death of mother but I don't think it was caused by it. As for Yang's wildness, I think her behaviour is a facade. Since the death of Summer it appears as if Yang has had to play the matriarchal role for Ruby and in doing so hasn't been able to express her own emotions for fear of upsetting her sister, so she hides them behind a boisterous personality and motherly care tendencies. I'm sure when she's alone she will have had more than her fair share of breakdowns, just that unlike Blake or Ruby she doesn't dare let anyone in on it because she's meant to be the strong one, she isn't allowed to be vulnerable.

I can really see the part with yang turning out to be true. and blake left the whit fang pretty late, didn't she? and Weiss has been attacked by the white fang most of her life. I wonder if blake needs to applogise for anything? not something serious, I think that killing people might of been the line she wouldn't cross even in the white fang, (unless that extended only to innocents, with the schnee company having none, so it would therefore be easy for the white fang to say to a younger Blake "those are the baddies, its ok to kill them", remember, she was basically raised by the white fang for most of her life, they were bound to use some sort of fail safe perhaps subliminal messages?)
