mila,
Sorry I had such an extreme reaction. I just carry such baggage from my past, as I am certain many of us do.
I'm really upset with this latest spell. I'm angry and scared and sad. As I posted on another thread, while I may be coping "better" with these episodes, it doesn't change how painful they are. And I am just weary to my bones. So that adds to my overreactions to the slightest thing. When I voice it outloud, I can usually see that I am blowing something a little out of proportion.
I am usually pretty good about not using the "life's unfair" type phrase. That is too much a victim role, and I've worked hard at not being a victim. I suffered as a victim when I was a child. I'm not going to suffer as a victim now.
What are you studying? I have three degrees, so I do remember the stress that brings.
I liked your memory. I don't have many childhood memories, especially from when I was very young. I am glad that you are able to remember the good times.
Thanks for your kind words.
AKC
