Non-defining relatice clause

What is the correct sentence:
"I find people, who lose their temper, difficult to get on with."
"I find people whom lose their temper, difficult to get on with."

It's hard for me to decide, since the clause can't be substituted with 'him/her' (whom) or 'he/she' (who).

Thank you in advance.
