[QUOTE=yagalada;172940 it really does help to identify what you can control and what you cant control and how you'll deal with each.
[/QUOTE]

This is some fantastic advice. It really helps me to know what I can and can't control. I try to just ignore/deal with things I can't control so that I have the energy required to work with the things I can control (or at least make a difference in). Perhaps you could make a list of things that upset you and categorize them into things you can control and things you can't. Maybe that will help you decide where to focus your energy. For instance, keeping a mood diary and going to see your T are things you can control. Your boss' attitude is beyond your control (although it's amazing how much you can help someone's attitude by simply being nice/thoughtful towards them).
