Guys, tonight was shitty. I feel like my family and I are cursed! I have received shitty treatment from 3 people this week. I'm not taking it personal, but I can't help but to be assertive and tell them where it's at. I have held so many things in for so long-got real sick-tummy aches bad, migraines etc.
NOW< I express the feelings I have-and mind you they are NOT anything against the law, homicidal, etc. they are for me to tell people I will not be treated likek a doormat.
Is there anything wrong with that???
I would really appreciate some input here-I am going crazy.
I live with my *mommy*, and one of our dogs' barking resulted in a long time neighbor calling us to tell us to "do something about the dog's barking"-so I took it upon myself to go over to his door and tell him tht we had to listen to you and your ex wife fight in front of your 8 year old, over the years, etc., and you're a fag- he then hit me below the belt-something I can't go into on the boards. It was just wrong.
My7 mom, brother, and I went out for a nice dinner-really nice evening-then we come home to this shit.
HELP!!!
Someone, somewhere, please give me some feedback.
Kristen

Hi Krissy P,
Setting boundaries is good but you, like me, sometimes wait too long and instead we slam people too hard. I think depression is like addiction in that we can let ourselves get to hungry, angry, lonely, or tired, HALT.
You neighbor sounds like an ass but a dog barking, depending on how much, will drive anyone nuts. I had to give away a dog several years ago because I didn't have space for him to run. He would bark all day and I got complaints. I ran an add in the paper and gave Maggie to a great family with kids, other Blue Heelers, and room. It was best but I miss her. I have a cat now. : )
On the anger thing, we may have to pump iron an hour a day to get it out but anger is our enemy. We eventually somehow turn it back on ourselves.
I don't blame you for being angry but you don't want a neighbor to harm your pet either.I'll write later, sorry, work calls.
We all get that kind of irritation daily. Learning how to deal with it while keeping our cool is critical. It's not easy.
Peace..out

Hi Kristen,
Sorry to hear about the crappy treatment.
I'm in need of the same thing that you sound like you need - a long vacation and a good pdoc!Hope things start looking better soon. I think this upcoming warmer weather is going to make everything start looking better.
This is the end of the thread.
