I'm here alone tonight. I just wanted to send an old picture I did on paint program to a friend, and my own virus protection won't let me send an attachment. So I thought I would go to that site that Happy used to post her pictures, and after I gave them my info, it says they are under maintenence and can't upload right now. well I gave them my personal info, the could have said it didn't work first, not second.
What's the big deal you might ask? I don't know, but I'm about to start breaking things. I cann't stand it. f*ck f*ck f*ck jvudkdfsakljasfdkljafsd;kljI cant stand this.

frustrating for sure, but try not to get too hot about it - no breaking of the computer ;-)

Somebody please say relax to me. Please say it will all be alright soon. I'm having an extreme overreaction an inappropriate emotional response. Thankyou sleepy. no big deal. I can't breath. I okay i'm not raining on the parade. I just lost it there for a second, funny how little unimportant things can trigger the big things. I'm going to move to another board here and think of something to talk about.

Relax James, it is going to be OK of course, you know that, but you're surging a bit. It's OK, I know you lost it a little, it's alright, no problem James - I freak out sometimes about the funniest things sometimes, if the moment is right for me

A friend of mine used to say, "Deep breath" when I started to get worked up about something. It always worked when she was with me, but never when I try to stop myself from being upset.
I tend to react too, not take things in stride. Maybe write them an angry email, and then if you work off some of the anger, edit it and send the part that tells them how annoying it was to go to the trouble to fill out all of that info only to be told you couldn't upload. I mean, why else would you go there?
Hope you're feeling better.

I've written some really angry stuff here. I find the "F" word (even with asterisk) really appropriate at such times. My mother would be absolutely horrified - but she knows how to make people angry better than most people I know.

James,
I'm not sure which Virus program you're using, but with most of them, you can go to the configuration panel and modify the settings (temporarily if you wish) to allow you to send the photo attachment. The default settings are usually fairly strict, but you can adjust them.
Blessings,
--Dee.

I know this is saturday night, and I personally like the social board to be jokes and recipes and friends esp. on the weekends. But I just had a major freak out. I thought I was going to have a heart attack. I just had eye surgery, so I totally had to remember don't touch myself on the head, dont go nuts. i'm trying to get myself into a hospital and trying to talk myself out of it at the same time. There is no way I can't go into a hospital. I just have to hang on to get the one week clearance on my eyes, because of all places, I don't trust a hospital to let me keep up with the medical maintinence necessary. I shouldn't be alone right now. My wife is spending the night with her grandkids, she will be back tomorrow afternoon. She already has monday off. she says just to have a relax day, whatever it takes. I went and stood out in the cold for a while. I'm breathing. People actually have to tell me to breath, it really doesn't work on it's own.
Can I just talk for a while? read it monday. I'm scared again. I've really tried. I don't come here and say "crisis, crisis!" I was just interacting, listening to music and hanging on the board because tv isn't working for me right now. I tried something. Something I could have done in my office 7 years ago. I couldn't make it work now. I lost it head crazy, adrenaline, tears, hyperventilate, James want to smash. How can I get job now what if something goes wrong. I jump from frustration to I'm an idiot to whoever made me feel this way will pay so damn quick. If I just broke down and cried, I would have to quit (life). so I'm the master of the stiff upper lip. but if I lose that, god help me and everyone that hurt me. Nobody hurt me tonight. It's all me.
I couldn't find the cd I needed to listen to right now. We took it out of the car so it would be safe. Mush by Leatherface. I've done everything but pick up the cats to find it. On a normal day, that would be a tantrum. Tonight damn. But I made it. I safe right now. I just have to type because I don't have any therapy right now. That is their fault, I showed up. I never got my turn. there were too many people in the room. I can talk about not drinking all day, but when do you get to talk about not killing yourself or somebody else? I don't need annbeatie or melody beattie or davidburns right now. I need a f*cking straightjackket and shots. I'm okay right now, I just need to find that cd. I'm sorry this isn't the time or place. I dindn't plan it this way.

I have a habit of reacting to truly insignificant situations with extreme over-the-top anger. It takes something very small to set me off if my mood isn't right. It is a habit or trait? of mine that I don't like but that I find so very hard to change. Being aware of it doesn't seem to make a whole lot of difference.
I identified with your post. The disappointment of not being able to send a photo would have sparked an angry tirade in me too.
I hope you are feeling a little calmer today. Sending you relaxing thoughts.

Long, slow and deep. calm.
Got to my beautiful forest where its quiet and peaceful and not too hot and not too cold. Noone will bother you there.
You can let your bad emotions just flow out of you, into the ground and away.
Breathing, slow and deep.
Calm.
It'll be ok.
This will pass.
Waves, they get big and crash, but then they go away a bit.
Breath.
You'll make it thru the next one ok.
Cuz you can
Breath James.
We like you here.
Muffled
