Sigh. I suppose I have achieved the most important things in life, so I wouldn't say I was a failure.

But resilient I am not. My office is still looking askance at me for sobbing (not crying, but sobbing complete with heaving gasps) about my computer repair problem. I'm fortunate to have people around me who are understanding when I melt down. But I do tend to get easily overwhelmed. Stress causes me all sorts of physical and mental problems. I started therapy when I was 13, I think, at which time they put me on Thorazine for a year. I still think that was overkill for severe anxiety.

I don't think I'm pessimistic, but I don't expect the best either. My perennial outlook is that things probably won't be as bad as your worst fears, but probably won't be as good as your hopes either. I assess birthday success by whether anyone died that day.
